IKEA seems to be under the impression that if they ban guns in their stores in the US, nothing bad will happen on their property....
Strangely enough, someone used a knife to kill people in an IKEA in their home country of all places.

Apples to oranges if you're drawing a comparison to US. Sweden has some pretty strict gun laws.

I took it that he is only pointing out the irony of how banning guns doesn't stop people from killing someone. Note the strict guns laws didn't stop them either.

The murderer couldn't get a gun, so he used a knife.

Being in an IKEA store does lead to murderous impulses.

Yeah, for many reasons. I came to the conclusion long ago, when I buy furniture, I want it to come already assembled.

Hope you are sitting down. Here's IKEA's response, ban knives.

As reported by Breitbart News last year, IKEA stores are gun-free zones, with even uniformed police officers asked to leave premises by security guards for carrying firearms.
Department of Justice figures show over 500 people a year in the United States are murdered with ‘blunt objects’. Whether IKEA will now seek to take rolling pins and cast-iron frying pans off the shelves on the strength of this data is presently unknown.

I assembled some IKEA shelves yesterday.
You dont need knives or guns to murder someone in IKEA, just hit them over the head with a piece of their cheap heavy pressboard furnature thats readily availible in their stores.
