have to carry a pistol with good capacity..period. Evil knows people are sitting ducks, thanks to their mechanical obedience to stupid and wicked government rules. Screw those rules!
A precursor for atrocities to be performed by copy-cat “Polar Bear Hunters” domestically? Wouldn’t be surprised one iota.
It would be note worthy to learn if the AP knows more about the attackers than its reporting...

Here's an amazing quote from Eric Baculinao, the AP reporter who wrote the story I read earlier:
“The motive behind the attack was not immediately clear, but China has seen a number of mass stabbings and other attacks carried out by people bearing grudges against society.”
This guy writes like a mouthpiece for the Ministry of Information for the Chinese Communist Party!
RE: “It would be note worthy to learn if the AP knows more about the attackers than its reporting...”
I agree.
See my Comment #46.
Wow you serious I had no idea..how do people cut their steak over there
According to my Chinese wife, who’s Favorites Menu is filled with Chinese Web-Sites, there was a woman among the attackers. Her MO was to push back the heads of her victims and slash their throats...
Also, the comments on these Web-Sites are of the opinion that the attackers WERE members of the ‘Religion-of-Peace’...
RIP.
Simply do a search on ‘Muslim Uyghurs China’ and you will see this most recent attack, along with previous attacks will tell you all you need to know.
“” they find another weapon of choice when they have the need, this being knives, cleavers, hatchets, hammers etc.””
American felons could very easily arm themselves in a similar fashion at any time at Wal-Mart. There is no reason for felons to lose their gun rights, when the most terrifying of weapons are among those you have mentioned. In fact I would be downright grateful to have a former felon capable, ready, and yes, willing to use a firearm in defense of themselves & others in a situation such as the one that went down in China.
That was an interesting page, Google automatically translates it and you can read the reader comments on the bottom. I wonder if those are Chinese people who wrote those.
They are indeed Chinese who wrote the comments.
You’ll find that the opinions of ‘regular’ Chinese fit the opinions of most Conservative Americans...
I believe that you mean the NW (mainly Qinghai and Xinjiang). Yunnan is south-central China, although the border areas of Yunnan do have some Muslim population. Some beautiful landscapes in Yunnan province. I heartily recommend a visit to Kunming, the capital.
