        You think she couldn’t have stabbed her teacher ?

        Stabbings happen every day in the United states. They are one of the easiest weapons to get a hold of.

          Have you even read the story? No, given the same circumstances I don’t believe a six year old with a knife would have been able to stab his teacher through her hand and into her chest. If you honestly believe otherwise I can only conclude you have no idea:

          a) what a gun is. b) what a knife is. c) what a six year old is.

            Considering I own multiple guns and multiple knifes I can tell you that a knife can easily go through a hand and into a chest and a six year old would be more than powerful enough to do so.

            Perhaps you only have experience woth butter knifes and steak knives. But I have seen a high quality cooking knives take off fingers like it was a butter knife going through warm butter.

              So it’s six year olds you’re not familiar with. Right you are chief, you keep on believing. Makes you wonder why militaries go to all the expense of having guns when knives are exactly the same don’t it.

                I may not be as familiar as you are it seems. However I have multiple young children in my family amd some friends have children ranging from a few months old to teenagers. I certainly know how strong a five year old can be.

                You should know that knives and bayonets have been used effectively in militaries the world over for over a century

                But you know that and just do t want to admit it.

                  You’re vastly overestimating how strong a six year old is, the effective range of a six year old with a knife and underestimating how much faster and stronger an able bodied grown adult is in comparison and how relatively easy it is to defend yourself from a six year old you’re literally facing down when they’re limited by their own strength.

                  The bayonet is a weapon of last resort, the US army haven’t trained with them in more than a decade and last fought a bayonet battle 70 years ago, there’s not a professional army on the planet who’s primary weapon is an edged blade. More bad faith horse shit.

                    6 year olds are first graders and typically have very close interactions with teachers. It doesn’t take much for a 6 year old to stab through a person’s hand and into a person’s chest. Also my point is more thay the child could have taken a knife from thier parent as easily as a gun and then went on to stab the teacher. In both instances the result could end in death.

                    Knives are responsible for a lot of deaths and there have been mass stabbings in the news recently
