Searched the archives for mention of the college stabber but surprised to find I couldn't find anything. I would have thought we'd have brought this up -- maybe my Google-fu just sucks this morning. Delete or merge if this is redundant.
For those who don't remember, one particularly addled individual went on a stabbing spree at the University of California Merced. Law enforcement, including the county sheriff, maintained there was no evidence the assailant (one Mohammed Faisal) had connections to any terrorist group or was inspired by terrorists.
... and yet ...

A handwritten manifesto carried by a California college student whose stabbing spree Wednesday left four wounded bore names of his targets, a vow “to cut someone’s head off” and as many as five reminders to “praise Allah,”
In the two-page document found in Faisal Mohammad’s pocket by the county coroner, the 18-year-old freshman wrote a numeric list outlining his plans of who he wanted to kill, and how, including beheading and shooting his victims,
"He had a smile on his face, he was having fun, which is more the thing that bothers me," said Byron Price, who was managing the construction site at the university for his family’s construction company.
Oh yeah ... and he was stopped because someone decided to take protective action rather than wallow in a corner, crying:
Mohammed fled the classroom after he was overwhelmed by Price and another construction worker who was about to hit Mohammed with a ladder.
“He was banking on the fear factor. …His plan went haywire because people fought back,” Warnke said. “He got so befuddled at the activities that happened; it took the script away from him.”
While I'd certainly rather have a loaded pistol than a ladder at hand, you use the means available to you and respond to the threat, take action. Don't just stand at a wall befuddled and crying because gun/knife control failed to do what the politicians and social justice wimps have promised.
