33 Dead, 130 Injured in China Knife-Wielding Spree




A group of knife-wielding men attacked a train station in southwestern China on Saturday, killing at least 29 people and injuring more than 130 others in what Chinese officials called a terrorist strike, the official Xinhua News Agency said.


Only guns can cause mass murder ?

you got me.. I was about to argue that in the US, the majority of mass killings were done with assault type rifles, rifles that were designed not for hunting, but killing as many humans as quickly as possible. but your posting of an incident of a mass killing with a knife makes me throw my argument into the trash can and walk away.
