As many as 14 people were hurt in the stabbing spree. Police say they have arrested a suspect.

One victim is reportedly in critical condition.

It was initially thought that there was a second attacker still at large, but officials now believe the attacks have ended.

Officials put the school on lockdown in the aftermath of the attacks, telling students to stay away from the area. Those already on campus were told to seek shelter immediately.

Earlier in the year there was a shooting at a different Lone Star College campus.

Lone Star College = Student loan & Pell Grant cash cow, with little to no education received in exchange by the welfare crowd. Last generation’s youth who worked for a wage and built skills have been replaced by enrollees in state run adult daycare.

Not sure. England and Australia are going after knife legislation as knife crime soared afer banning guns.

See final segment. Imagine how horrible it would have been if he had had a knife. It wouldn’t jam up, and he wouldn’t have accidentally stabbed himself in the foot. No, knives are much worse than guns.

The knife is reputed to be an "Exacto" knife...

Ban the hobby shops... you know they are up to no good...

I once had a knife confiscated in the Jerusalem Central Bus Terminal. It was in my suitcase, a Tanto knife I bought from my sensei when he had to close his dojo. Funny enough, there was a knife store right upstairs in the terminal, where I could have bought something not quite as good but comparable. But the knife showed up on the x-ray machine so they confiscated it, made me authorize its destruction, and the officer then probably sold it.

It has legitimate sporting purposes. I use them to make pens out of chicken feathers.

Where’s a knife-free-zone when you need one?

see a human can make a weapon out of anything. a tooth brush can be sharpened to a point and be used to gut someone as it is done in prison regularly.

so ban humans , it's the only way to be sure our children are safe. never mind that it's only a handful of nuts out of 330 million who don't go on mass murdering sprees, because there are a handful out of 330 million then ban all humans.

this is the logic liberals/democrats are using to ban guns when mass murdering sprees are a statistically non-existant event, out of a trillion to the trillionth power of events that happen the media cherry picks a few of those to control us , and further the socialist agenda

I have a so called automatic knife which gives me one handed opening and relief for my arthritic hands. Now, when I was a youth, such a knife would be illegal.

The problem is the human brain. It has the capacity to think creatively, even when it comes to destruction. In fact, human minds are especially creative when it comes to committing murder or defending against murder, which really amounts to the same thing. So you can have humans with legitimate sporting purposes. Just ban their high-capacity minds. Lobotomize, don’t criminalize.

knife crime went up staggering amounts.

Not to mention intoxication crimes.

May God be with and heal the victims!

I see the jokes about banning knives, and I initially made that joke too, but I realized quickly that the liberals have a response to this. I figured, based on comments I’ve read on articles regarding guns and knives in papers like the UK Daily Mail, they would say that a lot more damage would have been inflicted if he had a gun. When I heard it on the news, they said 4 or 5 people were in critical. Hopefully, they don’t die. If they don’t, the liberals will say they would have died had he had a gun. If they do, they’ll say more people would have died had he had a gun. I went over to DU, and sure enough, I figured correctly. Just a heads up that will be their response to that argument.

Was this a high capacity knife?

I suspect a single-shot with an extremely fast reload rate.
