Another Reminder We Need Commonsense Knife Control

3/27/24 WSAW:

"ROCKFORD, Ill. (WIFR/Gray News) - A man was taken into custody Wednesday afternoon after police in Rockford, Illinois, said he attacked and stabbed multiple people.

"Police and the Winnebago County Sheriff’s Office said there were a total of 11 victims in the attacks, including four who died from their injuries. Police said not all of the victims were stabbed."

No real cook needs an "assault knife" with a 7" blade, and a serrated edge (like a military "weapon of war"). 

And yes, a real sociopath might sharpen a screwdriver by grinding it across concrete but think of the children.

Of course:

"Approximately 20 minutes after the first call came in, authorities took a 22-year-old man into custody. Rockford Police Chief Carla Redd said investigators do not believe any other suspects are at large. She says there is no clear motive for the attacks."

I have seen no other coverage.  Mental illness, perhaps?
