Well since the fbi no longer has any credibility, this must be a load. ;-)

recent statistics from 2016 show

You can't dissuade idiots who are convinced of their moral superiority, with facts. Now stop it.

According to the Uniform Crime Statistics, Fists and Feet kill more people than rifles of all types, the AR being a subset of all rifles.

I guess all those drug laws helped
the 64,000 people who overdosed in
2016. More gun laws will work too.

G. Gordon Liddy once said knives have a couple of important advantages over guns. They're always loaded and don't go BANG when you use them.

The “Knock out” game killed many people, not one gun was used

We’re 100’s of thousands of times more likely to be in a car wreck by some drunk, or bimbo too preoccupied with testing her BFF about the crazy sex she had the night before than we are facing the business end of a gun, let alone being shot at. When we took the gun safety courses I realized if driving safety was taken just half as seriously as gun safety our insurance premiums would plummet overnight.

"Knives kill far more people in the United States than rifles do every year."

Mass murders are horrific and get a lot of news attention, but statistically their numbers, don’t make more than an infinitesimal fraction of total murders. Mass murderers also usually amount to 5-7 mentally deficient evil people per year, which as a group makes them far safer than young black males.

If you want to murder somebody and get away with it use a knife. Ask O.J. Simpson.

A woman with a kitchen assault knife is far more deadly than anyone with a gun.

No, they don't. Knives don't kill people any more than guns kill people.

I am a military/Cold War veteran.

There are knives, and there are knives.

There are the all category, make, style, and material ‘kitchen’ knives. Believe it or not, THIS is what England wishes to regulate!!

Then, in their own class, are the Kabar (Sir! yes sir!), the Faibairn-Sykes, and the Case V42.

Yes, there are ‘more portable’ models, but with the two aforementioned categories, there is enough to talk about.
