Masked man arrived at a school with a sword and began the carnage. Many wounded. Police did not respond with a sword and he is one of the dead.
RIP young child and brave teacher.

Yeah, if this happened here you probably wouldn't hear about it because he didn't use a gun. Swords aren't on the anti-gun/liberals agenda.

Sure they are....just hot yet in the US. Once they take firearms, as they've done in places like the UK, they move on to air guns, bows, swords, and knives. Then they move on to things like baseball bats and beer mugs....and they'd ban rocks too if it were possible.The Wall wrote:Yeah, if this happened here you probably wouldn't hear about it because he didn't use a gun.

School terrorist is "right wing".
Wore a Starwars mask and stopped to pose for photos with students before continuing to kill.
Students thought the blood on the sword was fake and it was a Halloween prank.
Occurred at a school with a high immigrant population.

Anytime you come in to a public place with a mask on regardless of the season of the year you're a potential suspect in my book.

I believe swords are legal to own but not legal to carry in Texas. Left wing plot?
