I heard about this yesterday and so many thoughts went through my mind.

Too bad somebody didn't take this opportunity to mock all the ridiculous gun control legislation with a "ban knives" speach. It might have reached a few people that way.

Would a Swiss Army Knife be considered a high capacity knife? Glenn Beck was making fun of the electric knife this morning. And what about a black (tactical looking) Swiss Army Knife? Pretty funny.

Wouldn't it have been great if someone with a concealed carry permit and weapon would have shot this lunatic.

No, because only deaths/injuries by firearms are bad.

Where's that picture of all the evil tools of destruction confiscated by British police? None of them went "bang", unless I missed seeing some hammers in there with the hatchets.

Did anyone else in the media cover this story? I haven't been watching TV for a couple of days.

I know which one you're talking about. I'm looking for it but haven't found it yet. In the meantime, here are some others that are almost as good:

The best part of that one:

Of course not. Like I said, only injuries involving firearms are bad.
