Interesting. From the article:
"The stabbing comes amid a citywide spike in blade attacks.

As of March 13, police have investigated 809 stabbings citywide this
year, compared to 673 investigations by the same point last year a 20%
jump."

Gee and they told us that as soon as they got the guns registered
there would be "peace for our times".

"The low-lifes, you will always have with you." Isn't that in the bible
or something?

But given the choice, if they're going to attack me, I'd much rather
have them armed with a knife than with a gun.

I believe that the actual quote is "For ye have the poor with you
always, and whensoever ye will ye may do them good: but me ye have not
always."

( as y'all seem to have a plurality of "Good Books" I have selected
the first translated into English for my reference)

But for you to equate "poor" with "low life" is, I suspect, in your
country, an extreme violation of Political Correctness".

Over here, of course, "poor" is usually equated with "lazy", but
whether the people here are more clear sighted, or not, is another
question.

Certainly it is, a good deed for a Buddhist to give charity to others
but on the other hand I see a considerable amount of scorn exhibited
toward those that don't work.

But my remarks were aimed toward the anti-gunners, who seem to resent
reality, and seem to equate guns with crimes and imply that as soon as
we can get rid of the guns crime will go away :-)

I know the quote. My post was a quip. And a little political
incorrectness doesn't bother me.

I don't think anyone believes that getting rid of guns (or more
accurately, putting greater restrictions on guns) will make crime go
away. Those low-lifes will always be with us.

Unfortunately that is also the least accurate translation into English.

Given that the Christian Bible has been translated and re-translated
innumerable times since the various books were originally written I
suspect that the term accuracy is somewhat suspect. After all, Y'all
can't even agree on the wording of the most basic law, the 10
Commandments.

Of course they will, but if you say so then people start waving their
finger at you. I am beginning to believe that some people don't
believe in calling a spade a spade :-)
(But I suppose that is also politically incorrect :-)

I doubt if we get that many nationwide in a WHOLE year, never mind
less than a quarter of one.

If I remember correctly the U.K. (which I suspect is England, Scotland
and Wales) had something like 600 deliberate murders in the entire
country.

The U.S. can beat those numbers without even getting out of bed in the
morning :-)
