Stabbing spree in Colorado Springs leaves 8 injured

You don't think that this will go into the knife violence statistic? Why shouldn't this receive different coverage than gun stuff? Way easier to kill someone without training with a gun than a knife. No one died, guy is apprehended. What else is there to beat out of the coverage?

Because the media traction for eight people non-fatally wounded by gunfire is an order of magnitude higher than eight random people non-fatally stabbed. Why did he have a gun? How did he get a gun? Should other people be able to have the same gun? How will this influence efforts for gun safety? All questions not asked if it's a knife, especially a "normal" non-military or non-hunting knife.

Which is why bayonets aren't regularly used.

Probably homeless people that got stabbed. The media doesn't want to draw attention to the homeless problem. Same goes for Mr Stabby if he himself is a homeless person. We shall see what updates come out.

Yeah, I know. I was being facetious. Once they get the guns, then they'll go after the knives.

Nope; never happen....said everyone in England (particularly in London).

If bayonets weren't over six inches long, attached to a heavy rifle, and trained on, you might have a point.
