This might be the largest number of death so far. Ninja attack?

100,000-200,000 in Rwanda alone...

All on Clinton's watch because they "didn't want another Somalia." Something to the effect of 800% more efficient killing in a short period of time than Hitler during the holocaust. That too could have been stopped, by men with guns from Belgium and Canada who were there when it all went down!

Religion of Peace. They don't like the Han moving into their area.

I guess I just don't see the U.S. as being on the hook to solve or prevent every atrocity in the world. I personally don't consider either Somalia or Rwanda as being worth a single American life. Best that we deal with our problems and let them deal with theirs.

Nope! Said it was radicals from: The region is home to a large Muslim Uighur minority .

Does it surprise you it was Muslims?

Maybe they should ban people. Yep, "people" seems to be the common factor at play in all of these stabbings.

Meh, not sure about Somalia, but you can't pretend that Rwanda wasn't genocide. And considering a little known fact- Clinton inaugurated the National Holocaust Museum in Washington, D.C., just 8 short months prior to Rwanda and in his speech he claimed "Never again." That's the thing that irks me... not so much that we should get involved all the time, but if you're going to make a claim like that, then in less than a year not follow through, that's pretty low. I think we have a moral obligation to prevent genocide if possible, such as the stationing of UN troops in the country in question, who were ordered to not get involved. What a great message that sends...
Sorry for the derail.

Actually, in roughly 100 days it was closer to 800,000 people killed. Pres Clinton and the UN were unwilling to intervene. The PBS documentary "Ghosts of Rwanda" was very informative. Whether or not the US should have intervened I'll go with "All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing."

Death toll is now up to 33 and there were 130 injured.

and people think that once all the guns are gone all will be good in America.

Things much worse than that had happened in China. In 2001, one man murder 108 people in just one night:

Which is my favorite story to share with my American friends who believe in gun control. I still believe that if he had guns, he would have killed many less, because among the 108 killed he really wanted to murder about 20 of them. I believe the lack of firearm made him more desperate. But that's just my speculation.

However I don't agree with the title "A couple of people with guns could of stopped this". If there's a chance that a couple of civilians in the train station would carry guns then the attackers, who apparently had planned very carefully, wouldn't choose to use knives in the first place.
