StrangeSox Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 Hmm it's almost as if knife attacks tend to be much less deadly than mass gun attacks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to be a contrarian asshole, but if the students were carrying guns, once the perpetrator whipped out the knife, boom, shoot him in the leg and incident is over. It's dangerous out there and I am all for the bad guys taking a bullet in the butt or the leg when they are wielding knives and guns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that you've been told this before, but you do understand it's very hard to intentionally shoot a moving target in the leg right? And if the shooter misses, we might go from zero fatalities in this case to more than zero fatalities. Because each of these hypothetical armed students will not be marksmen.

I guess I was thinking about what I'd do. I'd take a ton of lessons on how to use my gun (or gub as Woody Allen said in that hilarious movie Take the Money and Run) and if I saw the guy wield his knife at me, I'd try to shoot him in the butt or leg. Just me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if I see him whip out a knife and start a stabbing spree, I want a gun and a fighting chance to live and save others. All I can do is try to hit him in the leg or butt. Shoot low.
