While this is the US thread, it doesn't surprise me that knives are the weapon of choice for Canadian murderers seeing that it is much more difficult to get a firearm here. You're never going to stop people from killing each other. You can't get rid of all objects in the world someone could kill somone with, a well-placed fist could be used to do that. But why are they being easily supplied with equipment that can kill large amounts of people with minimal effort or face-to-face engagment? Just so people can keep their God-given right to shoot s*** while praising heaven almighty? So people like you can shoot at trees or cans or whatever? So people can hunt? I enjoy hunting, but we as a society certainly don't need guns to feed ourselves anymore. Does that small amount of enjoyment really off-set the deaths of thousands?
As soon as someone can rattle off 600 throwing knives per minute at 3000 ft/sec, you may have a point.
