"It "didn't just happen," it happened 9:30 AM Sunday, 24 hours ago.

Whatever. It's all over the national news now, negating your false premise that it would not be covered because there was no gun involved.

Myself, I'm more concerned with the families of the two who were killed than with the speed the story went nationwide.

Such stories will always make national news, even more because the killings were done with a sword. The more bizarre, the more newsworthy.

As for it happening on Sunday, you're correct. Most news organizations are on limited staffing on Sundays, so Sunday AM stories often don't appear until Monday.

No doubt, though, there are plenty of stories involving guns out there from the weekend. I haven't searched for "Shooting" yet today.

"Whatever."

Yeah, whatever. 24 hours, 24 minutes, no big deal to an ignoramus.
