[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow. A student is murdered during the school day when SOLs are taking place and you are glad that it's not a gun and a knife? A child is dead. I'm an ACPS parent of two students and I live walking distance to ACHS. I am WFH today and I am absolutely heartbroken and sick. This could be any of our children. If you think as a bystander they couldn't be shot or stabbed, you are wrong. Yes, it appears to be certain kids, maybe involved in crime or not, but a child is dead. We need to enact some common sense policies so this doesn't happen again. Thoughts and prayers are not enough. G-d watch over and protect this child's parents and family. [/quote]

1) most stabbings aren’t fatal. 
2) knives reduce the possibility that an innocent bystander will be killed

You’ll never, ever, ever stop people from killing each other, but if you can keep the means which they do it from being something that can accidentally kill bystanders, then that’s a net-positive. People are always going to kill each other. But at least with a knife or other close range weapon, they won’t inadvertently kill someone many feet or more away.
