Did anyone hear of this? If he had gone into Albertsons with a pistol and done this, would it have been national news? Just a question.

Well, it was certainly all over the L.A. news this morning. Since it just happened, I'm not surprised that it hasn't gone national. It will, though.

Looking at Google News, with a search for "sword," I see that it has made the news nationally now, with even stations in Iowa running the story.
It does take a few minutes for such stories to make national news, I guess.

Maybe we need a national registration of all swords, and a 3 day "cooling-off" period? < /sarcasm off>

Oh dear... The extra long handle on the sword is what led to the enhanced killing ability. Assault swords should be banned.
To: Travis McGee
I had not heard of it but I know of something similar involving people I know. Only one person was killed and the killer also was a schizophrenic.
I am not being sarcastic when I say we probably can expect some outcry for sword control. It isn't just guns they don't like, it is all types of weapons, although guns being most effective are the ones they hate most.

I am not being sarcastic when I say we probably can expect some outcry for sword control.I doubt that. The anti-gun crowd is not against weapons, just guns.

I have read your posts before.
You are clearly one who sails under false colors. I do suspect you would be familiar with what the gun control crowd is for and against tho.

"I never felt threatened, but he was just a really odd man," said Mark Ming, 26. "He would have full conversations with himself. He obviously had problems...Shame nothing could be done about him by either the employers or his family. For the sake of those 2 people killed.
So, we're supposed to wait around for men like him to flip out? Nothing anyone can do?
To: wirestripper
Actually I had you pictured as pink.

Look bud. If your cannot accept a moderate opinion of gun control (because I believe that the para military crowd brought us to where we are)Then fine, but don;t try to insult me.
