2. A switchblade??? What's whong with him???

If he'd have had an assault rifle he'd have been okay!!!

3. While knives do kill more people

I somehow doubt a semiautomatic rifle would have improved the situation for him. Just a guess.

11. That is a false statement, guns kill far more than knives do

http://www.snopes.com/politics/guns/baseballbats.asp

According to FBI statistics guns are responsible for about 68% of homicides while knives are responsible for about 13%. This means guns kill about five times as many people as knives.

12. The post was specifically about assault rifles

Rifles of any kind are the least likely weapon used to kill someone - approximately 2.3% of all murders.

13. Well I bet switchblades kill less than assault rifles do

If we are only going to limit the comparison to one type of gun then we should limit the comparison to one type of knife as well. I know gun advocates love to skew the statistics by only counting some gun deaths yet counting all knife deaths, but it is a meaningless comparison.

14. Perhaps you should read the post I was replying to. nt

[Bjorn Against]

15. I did read it

Just because the post mentioned an assault rifle does not mean the person who posted it thinks that assault rifles are the only types of guns that should be counted in a comparison between gun deaths and knife deaths.

If you think it does mean that however then you should read the OP as it specifically mentions a switchblade. If mentioning an assault rifle means we only count assault rifles then mentioning a switchblade should mean we only count switchblades right?

16. ok. nt

4. I believe he could have openly walked down the street with a gun in Wisconsin, but not a knife.

That's screwed up.

6. Oh, fuck, I did no know that Wisconsin's Open Carry law

didn't include swords & stuff. Does this mean I have to leave my halberd home when I go out for New Years?

[Hoyt]

7. Unless you want some gun fancier standing his ground cause you scare him, better leave it home.

[Bluenorthwest]

8. Apparently he stabbed a guy in a bar.

Not exactly walking down the street.

5. ZOINKS!

[secondvariety]

9. And

he looks like such a nice fellow...

10. He's had issues with being the only one from the show who didnt succeed afterwards

All the others have gone on to successful careers but he floundered and HATED being called Screech by everyone he saw.

[Rhinodawg]

19. Didn't he do a porn movie if I remember ?

20. Well, you made me look it up. According to him, he "faked" a sex tape

But i never went and looked at the tape.
If we were talking about "Kelly Kapowski", it would be a totally different story. I'd be able to recount every second of that tape!!!
