This is awful.
Knife-wielding mob kills 28 at China train station - CNN.com

I wonder who the attackers were? Yunnan is not known for a lot of seperatist violence. Most of the local Muslims are ethnically Chinese and do not seem to have any seperatist amibitions. Likewise, though the area is home to many tribal ethnic groups - some with long standing grudges against Han Chinese, I cant remember hearing about an attack of this magnitude before.

RIP to the dead people.
 
It's clearly time to implement stricter knife control measures

Predictable kneejerk defensive reaction from the right. You want to make this about gun control? Fine, let's make this about gun control. If that group of men had TEC-9s the body count would have been a bit higher.

No, but your post indicates an ignorant knee jerk reaction of whatever persuasion you are. The post indicated by sarcasm that tragedies as this can ot be prevented by feel good regulation. Too bad that that went way over your head.

...or if the decent hard working people just waiting to buy a train ticket had been armed then the body count may have been much lower.

Wow! Talk about a knee-jerk reaction!

Snort!!
 
Why is it every time a right-winger flings poo and then gets poo flung back at them... 3 more right-wingers are appalled and come out swinging at this "injustice".

And the fearful sheep continue to tighten the herd.
 
This is just terrible. RIP. Thoughts and sympathies are with the family, friends and loved ones left behind.

This is the internet where people can pretend to be all they wish they could be...

Let it be pointed out that all but one of these attackers were SHOT dead. Had there been private armed citizens in the crowd, it could have ended much sooner.
 
Also 133 wounded.....they are saying the group are Terrorists and are Muslims.
