Again, a child's life when lost is a sad thing, so I almost hate myself for using this article to carry on my comments from earlier, but not so much as I hate the "if even 1 <insert appropriate sympathetic figure> is saved" fallacy.
Woman, 2 young children stabbed in San Jose (http://news.yahoo.com/woman-2-young-children-stabbed-san-jose-155744100.html)
By GiantOne's logic of if even one life is saved is far more appropriate to this case since the person of interest has mental health issues. I am sure that GiantOne will now join with me in the just and righteous call for background checks before purchasing any kitchen utensils with a blade. GiantOne, I will send you the bill for my campaign travels.
It wont matter because when you're just plain scared shitless of firearms like he is you cant apply logic.
