Yes, because 28 is perfectly acceptable, right? That's only one more than Sandy Hook.

1 death is a tragedy. 28 is a statistic.

You know, there have been a lot of mass stabbings in China in recent years, but this may finally be the one that motivates leading Chinese anti-knife proponents DIanne Feinchang, Nancy Peloching, Hillary Cunton and Joe Bidung to finally introduce legislation in the National People's Congress to ban knives in China. This kind of proliferation of sharp objects cannot be tolerated.

The only problem is the NKA and all the big knife manufacturers (Ginsu, Buck, Swiss Army, etc) are pumping so much money into the Chinese elections. It's almost hopeless to introduce a ban.

Need to have guards armed with knives in Chinese railway stations to prevent such attacks.

Also, many cities in the US do, in fact, ban knives larger than a certain size. These bans have clearly helped curtail the mass knivings in this country. :nod:

Speculation continues to circulate about Tank Man’s fate. Thousands of Chinese nationals were detained and imprisoned for their involvement in the protests, some of them kept in jail for almost their entire lives. Others were executed. No one has been able to determine whether Tank Man was among them.
