This particular deranged murderer made a lot of noise and managed to kill (I think) just two people. The very list of knife events you reject demonstrates how quickly the body count can rise with a committed knife attacker. Bladed weapons were responsible for industrial-strength slaughter for millennia.  [/quote]
Besides the two dead, there were 17 injured including 14 children.    Many of these (especially among those classified as being in critical condition) will likely be crippled for life.

Also note that the murderer shot at the children through the Church windows.      This is something that could not be done with a knife.      Yes, a committed knife attacker can kill multiple people, but it is much, much easier done with a gun.[/quote]

Also BFR. If you were shopping at Target with your kids and a crazy violent person came into the store, would you rather they have an AR-15 or a knife? … there is only one sane answer here [/quote]
An ER doctor wrote an oped about the damage that an AR15 does to the body compared to a single shot pistol.  He stated that  most victims of one shot gun shot wounds can be saved, but the damage to a victim from an AR15 was basically like a blender came through the insides of the person.

There is no reason for an AR15, that's for sure.  [/quote]

The terminal ballistics of a 5.56 rifle bullet are relatively unpredictable and depend on, among other things, the weight and jacket material of the bullet, its design, the propellant used, and the length and twist rate of the barrel, as well as the range from which the wound is inflicted, and the build and clothing of the individual struck. Even when all else is equal, two different 5.56 wounds can vary from a small through and through wound to one with greater tissue destruction. The AR15 is popular but it is not the only firearm that uses 5.56 ammunition. And not all AR15’s use that round.[b] The idea that a bullet wound is ever “like a blender came through a person” is simply ridiculous hyperbole. [/b][/quote]

Not hyperbole when it hits a child.

You attended those autopsies and/or saw the photographs and read the reports?  Or you read an article that somebody wrote about what they thought?  Sounds like your personal sample size is zero, “RN.”[/quote]
