Ban Knives? High School Student Goes On Stabbing Rampage In Pennsylvania School
Another day another dismal headline of some killing spree and while the American people is becoming almost numb to these dreadful occurrences, this one was different. As Reuters reports, twenty people were injured, at least nine seriously, when a student at a Pittsburgh-area high school went on a stabbing rampage early on Wednesday. We are sure the administration is closely watching the events and considering what actions to take to ensure this does not happen again. The good news, for now, is that no one has died but indications are that these are very serious injuries.
As Reuters reports, seven students between the ages of 15 and 17 and one adult were admitted to Forbes Regional Hospital in Monroeville, Pennsylvania, with stab wounds.
"These are all very serious injuries," hospital spokesman Jesse Miller said in a telephone interview.
The attacks took place in several classrooms and hallways as the school day began at Franklin Regional High School in Murrysville, 20 miles east of Pittsburgh, county emergency management officials said. The first 911 call was received at 7:13 a.m. EDT.
Three of the patients admitted were in surgery and all eight were in critical condition, hospital spokesman Miller said.
He said a ninth patient who had arrived at the hospital was airlifted to another facility.
The school district posted an emergency message on its website on Wednesday.
"A critical incident has occurred at the high school," the message said. "All elementary schools are canceled, the middle school and high school students are secure."
Zak Amsler, a 17-year-old junior at the school, said the attack occurred just before his first class was scheduled to begin.
"I saw a girl with blood running out of her sleeve," Amsler said as he waited to pick up his younger sister, a student at the nearby middle school. "It was pretty mind-blowing."
Stevens, the county official, noted that the scene had been contained. "The students that are here are safe," he told reporters.
It's not just the US though, as CBC reports, 4 people were stabbed in a Toronto office today:
One man is in custody after Toronto police say at least four people were stabbed at an office building in the northern part of the city today.
Police said the attack happened just after 9:30 a.m. ET on the fifth floor of an office complex at 4110 Yonge St., near York Mills Avenue.
Police received multiple 911 calls of an assailant attacking people with a sharp object.
A man and a woman in their 30s are among the people who were stabbed. The two suffered multiple, serious stab wounds, according to police, and are in critical condition in hospital.
Two other men whose ages are not known were transported with serious wounds to a trauma centre.
So what next? Spoons only at lunch? Knives issued only with RFIDs?

Knives don't stab people! High school kids stab people
...so you give the rationale TPTB will use. Ban knives or ban kids to protect the kids. One of the 2 is kinda odd.
Sporks for everyone!
We better put one of Eric Holder's 'bracelets' on people who LAWFULLY own knives now.
Actually, easy solution to these kinds of incidents. We just need TSA type screeners patting down every kid before they enter a school. Set up some x-ray machines, but give the kids the option of having their privates squeezed and probed if they feel uncomfortable with the x-rays. Great boost for the economy - new employment for the squeezers - I mean screeners - and machine peddlers.
So you send your children to government schools...why, exactly?
Ban public education
Sick culture and getting sicker. Keep your children at home or private school them.
Ban sissors and forks...if you trip when carrying one of these you can put out one of your eyes. My parents taught me that. The eye batch looks cool...
I pray it wasn't an "assault" blade.
Did it have a plastic handle?
but....but....nobody died from this - yet.
So, this is OK then I guess, let's move along and ignore the real question of why some kids are committing acts of deadly violence, with knife, gun, or baseball bat and how do we stop THAT?
They just banned privacy through NSA spying. Now they can pass any law they want and find you guilty.
If they ban knives, only criminals will have...steak.
The only people I see buying steaks are paying for it with EBT cards....
god damn.
how many lone wolf
was involved here.
i heres this lone guy was in 3 different places at the same time.
der udder weirdness is the school kid was 6ft had a beard a rucksack and a boston strong t shirt on
cut the hate fellas the perp looked nuttin like that robbie parker fella.
Another one of Obama's sons? I swear Obama has more sons than any other homosexual kneegrow I know of!
There's some reason that the Socialist Semite Democrat media has not plastered the suspect's face all over the news.....he's either a kneegrow or an illegal alien......two protected species for the media....
That municipality is 95% plus white
so is Obama.........
FalconFlight is a racist liar who enables violent negroes to engage in acts of violence.
He's run off now that his lie has been exposed.
As of the census of 2010 there were 28,386 people in Monroeville. The racial makeup of the borough was 79.51% White, 12.58% African American, 6.07% Asian, 0.42% from other races. Hispanic or Latino of any race were 1.41% of the population. Monroeville is one of the most racially diverse places in the Pittsburgh area.
I'm sorry RevRex, you're obviously intellectually challenged. But to interate, the town you keep citing, Monroeville, isn't the town where the incident occurred. The location is Murrysville. What's wrong with you otherwise?
So? Who committs the lion's share of all violent crimes? Negroes do, and that's a fact Jack!
11% of the population responsible for over 50% of all the violent crimes, and the Socialist Semitte Democrat media keeps giving negroes a free pass!
You are a violent negro enabler.
Well, they're incarcerated at far higher rates than whites, so I guess that Yin/Yang balance is maintained, huh?
Wrong, they are incarcerated proportionally to the amount of violent crimes they commit.
A personal observation: at 6 weeks, you may be over-playing your hand.
But troll on, nothing more entertaining than a good troll!
It's sad that people like you call names when confronted with facts about race.
You lie, then fail to refute my factual posts, then call me names.
How pathetic.
I'll play.
Where did I lie?
LOLOL. I'm gonna miss biggots when the NSA kills the interwebs...sigh. All kinds, I mean! Really, freedom of speech, not so much the actual bigotry, but the freedom to express it.
Hey you gov't schooled drone, you referenced the wrong town and you still have the gall to claim possession of the facts. Now that's patheTic.
Wow, that's the last thing I ever expec ted to be called. If my wife wasn't pissed at me I'd tell her and observe the uproar of laughter. anyway go fck yourself and your mama just the same.
FalconFlight = COWARDLY LIAR
The % of negroes in that town is higher than the national average.
Why post such ridiculous lies?

You faggot, I checked the "city-data" web site. It shows only .6% black asshole.

Monroeville does not equal Franklin Regional, not even close. That would be Woodland Hills which does have its share of problems.

Apologize mutherfcker
Ban the damn school instead, those FB kids never learn anything in American educational system anyway!!
The British solution: http://www.loweringthebar.net/2009/06/british-manufacturers-offer-pointl...
The pointy piece on the end of the knife looks like just the job to slash across someone's face.
I reckon they had better ban files if they dont want anyone to grind down the tip... And maybe dull the edge of the knife so it can't get down to the jugular veins or to the carotid arteries... And maybe make them shorter so you can't get the leverage you need to induce a good cut...
I would say that I am at a loss for words, but obviously, I am not...
Ahem....
America has a violent negro problem, not a gun problem, or a bat problem, or a knife
problem, a violent negro problem.
Violent negroes comprise 11% of the population yet are responsible for over 50% of all murders.
IF you are white and murdered, chances are disproportionately high that a negro did it.
If you are black and murdered, a negro was responsible a whopping 83% of the time!
The ObowelMovement is egging on the "little angel Trayvons" to commit more violence against white people every day, by telling them to "BRING A GUN TO THE FIGHT"
A single indivudal was able to stab twenty people? Time for some serious physical self-defense trainiing. Oh, wait, this is Sheepland.
Maybe whites in the school were fearful that Obama would charge them with a hate crime for subduing the stabber....

"So what next? Spoons only at lunch? Knives issued only with RFIDs?"
It's already the case in the UK that anyone found carrying a knife on the streets is likely to be arrested. Most especially if the person is below age 30 or black. And shops are not allowed to sell knives to kids below age 18, and their display stocks are usually behind secure glass screens to prevent theft.
Let's not forget that metal cutlery was banned from air flights after 9/11 and we are now obliged to eat airline dog food with plastic utensils.
Once is all be safe in prison America all is be safe like in prison. Ivan will check with Boris for this accuracy.
All is know most safe place is be in prison, da?
Wasn't there supposed to be a new school defense policy of fighting off these attackers using 'sharpened pencils' or something similar? Either they forgot to train the students and staff on how to do this, or they couldn't find any pencil sharpeners in today's high schools.
Last night 'a man' walked into LAPD precinct and shot a cop 7 times. If you're going to cover this obullshit, cover that obullshit
Finally, the opposite of the moniker of "senseless violence."
This kid was apparently trained by TommyLeeJones.
This kid was apparently trained by TommyLeeJones.
I got that one!...
I say ban pictures of knives!!! Ban the very thought of knives! Ban the whisper of the word! Ban all impure thought.
Because this is how our education system thinks.
Yep, they'll do that but they'll forget hatchets, screwdrivers, lighter fluid, sharpened sticks and razor blades.........
Pyschiatric pharmaceuticals? No problem.
Due to the pussification of 'Murica and anti-whiteman policies there are hardly any men left in public schools. The students are manginas, the teachers are a cross-section of the LGBT community and look what happened.
In my high school, circa 1972, any punk knifing people would have gotten stuffed into a wall by a fellow student or one of the teachers.
Now one scrawny geek can go psycho and run up a high body count.
Good job.
Excellent point.
Sounds like it was a no weapons zone.
"Silly rabbit, no weapon zones are for mass killers."
I was once going through airport security, and two security personnell were going through a ladies purse in front of me, and one agent found a nail file and asked the other agent if it was ok to let her keep it.
I said pretty soon you won't be able to bring your teeth onto an airplane.
I got a very dirty look.
I saw in a movie once where three guys walked into a night club, to a table where you know the gang leader and his cronies were seated, one of the three guys threw a glass of gasoline on the gang leader and said tell me what I want to know or I will light you up.
I am certain that this will happen, an probably soon the way things are going, and what then ban gasoline, ban cups in a public place.
There is no way that we can be protected by the police or security gaurds, one must be prepared to protect themselves! police and security gaurds show up when it is all too late!
To top it off the supreme court has ruled the police have no duty to protect at all. I will literally never move to a state where it is illegal to defend yourself. How ludicrous is that... lose your freedom if you defend yourself and no one is required to help you. We have entered the twilight zone.
RFID the platic knives in the school cafeteria - ASAP!
This event shows the necessity for the Federal Pre Crime bureau, to be headed up by Eric Holder.
The only people who should be allowed to possess knives are chefs and cafeteria workers. They are trained in how to use these things. Also, knife blocks that hold more than ten knives should be banned. Henkles... YOU'RE OUT OF HERE!!!... and...any knife that has a grip and that you can attach a blade to should be banned.
If'n you has a high-capacity knife-holder you's is a ter'rist!
What am I missing .... none these kids tried to bull rush this nut?
Ban spoons and forks for childhood obesity, too!
When pressure cookers are banned, only criminals will have pressure cookers!
BTW, bet a dollar to a dog turd that this kid was on some form of psychotrophic med!

I'm waiting for it:
"Oh Mr. and Mrs. America....................."
In The Empire of Deceit and Corruption we have processed food, GMOs, Fluoride, run-away pharma, Chem Trails, Microwave Radiation, Bread & Circusses, and much more to fuck-up the bodies and minds of people. This has produced a Zombie world of the walking dead who are prone to violence . . . Beware!!!
You must be a shill.
What about all the bad stuff?
If he had had a gun, the outcome would have been better?
Ban all knives! People must have a background check before being able to buy, sell or trade knives. We need a national database established that tracks all knife sales. Knives should only be used by military or the police. Parents should be required to lock up their knives at home. I want people to buy a bracelet of some sort that is tied to a particular knife and only the person wearing the bracelet can use the knife. Was this a fully automatic knife? Did it have a shank shroud? Is it a ghost knife? There are no reasons for knives longer than 0.5 inches.
FYI Japan has a 2 inch blade limit for carry knives, and you will get hackled for carrying your steak knife. And just as its gun laws it works. Britain has 3inch limit.
Perhaps we should ban thoughts, since violence begins with thoughts. Remember "As A Man THinketh" by James Allen?
Or perhaps we should ban hearts, since evil and violence always begin in the hearts of men. Just cut them all out! No more hearts means no more violence!
Or perhaps we should just ban HUMANS altogether, since we seem to be the source of nearly all atrocities of this type anyway.
Too late they did that a long time ago.
Clearly we need anti-knife legislation. All knives should be purchased after a 20 day waiting period and be no sharper than a butter-knife but no longer than a 5 year old's pinky finger. Kitchen? Chef? Restaurant? No excuse. Zero tolerance.
That'll teach 'em.
Why is school compulsory? Teacher's unions? Why force people together many of which do not want to be there. Don't blame knives or guns for these tragedies blame a maternal government that forces shit down our throats.
