Exactly UncleBuck! My point exactly. Killers will find a way to kill, but if we can make it a little more challenging for the killer, by not giving him a killing device, he or she might have to work a little harder at figuring out how to manipulate a plane, a pressure cooker or a toaster oven. We could just be buying ourselves a little time.
At least if only outlaws have butter knives, we can tell who the outlaws are.....since they stopped wearing black hats exclusively back in the John Wayne Era. Everyone walking around with a gun on their hip, sure worked out well in the old west eh? Before they shot it all to pieces. Imagine a show down at sundown with butter knives. At least the chance of an innocent by stander getting struck with a stray butter knife would be less likely than a bullet. You're right though, if outlaws had butter knives, and nobody else did, we'd all be eating some pretty dry toast.
