[High Praise! to T-dog]
This story is from back in April, but it’s probably new to you, since it doesn’t fit the narrative:
A citizen with a gun stopped a knife wielding man as he began stabbing people Thursday evening at the downtown Salt Lake City Smith’s store.
Police say the suspect purchased a knife inside the store and then turned it into a weapon. Smith’s employee Dorothy Espinoza says, “He pulled it out and stood outside the Smiths in the foyer. And just started stabbing people and yelling you killed my people. You killed my people.”
Espinoza says, the knife wielding man seriously injured two people. “There is blood all over. One got stabbed in the stomach and got stabbed in the head and held his hands and got stabbed all over the arms.”
Then, before the suspect could find another victim – a citizen with a gun stopped the madness. “A guy pulled gun on him and told him to drop his weapon or he would shoot him. So, he dropped his weapon and the people from Smith’s grabbed him.”
I suppose this could also have been prevented if only the store had posted a “No Stabbing” sign, but I guess we’ll never know.
You left out the best line!!!
You’ll notice that the story doesn’t mention the guys name or have a picture of him……
That tells you all you need to know about who “his people” are…..HOW unusual.
It’s too bad the story didn’t have a happier ending though:
A guy pulled gun on him and told him to drop his weapon
or he would shoot him. So, he droppedhis weaponhim and the people from Smith’sgrabbed himcheered.That’s it! We need stricter knife laws!
I mean, do we REALLY need knife blocks? Okay. The average person needs a knife to cut steak, but come to think of it a plant-based diet is healthier than one with meat. So, we can take steak knifes away by making them illegal as well as butcher knives and we’ve not only made people healthier because they can’t eat meat, but we’ve also reduced the number of knives that can harm innocent civilians.
The average person could get by with butter knives …. for now. If cholesterol continues to be a problem then we might have to ban those, too.
For now, we can be reasonable and take away big knives/knives in knife blocks (you really only need ONE knife to share, after all) and only give knives to people who pass a background check.
That should keep people from getting sharp knives and hurting each other with them.
the knife wasn’t a weapon when he bought it, he “turned it into one” unlike evilllll guns which are weapons all he time.
I wonder what would happen if someone with a legal gun in his car ran someone over intentionally….
GUN WIELDING MAN KILLS MAN IN ROAD RAGE INCIDENT!
If only it had been declared a “knife free zone” all this could have been prevented.
Question: How do you stop a crazy Muslim yelling you killed my people, you killed my people and stabbing folks?
Answer: By properly employing Utah native Dr. John Browning’s model 1911 recoil operated, semi-automatic, crazed Muslim stopper!
One 70+year old man shoots two would be robbers Florida Concealed Carry
One 24 year old man shoots and kills 12 injuries more than 50. Aurora, Colorado Gun Control
Never believe it when someone claims one person can’t make a difference.
For the record a commenter at another posting claimed the attacker was Vietnamese and named Kiet Thany Ly. He has an extensive criminal background and was recently released from jail. Still, you would think a competent news provider would have updated the story to provide a name.
Knife Free Zone?
Does that work as well as a Gun Free Zone?
