Four stabbed. Smiling Faisal Mohammad dead. Problem solved with use of a gun. (by police)

An unarmed construction worker was credited with rushing into the classroom to stop the jihad, he was stabbed, but slowed the carnage down.

So, how many shots did he fire?



On wait, he didn't use a gun. Nevermind.

In fairness, it is all over the news here.

Now we'll have to ban Knives and all sharp objects from schools... I mean think of the children.

Someone set up a poll and let us guess what Faisal's motive might have been.

I have been busy and haven't watched much news. This is the first and only I've seen of this.

[MONGOOSE]

I don't have cable or dish TV. However, I have seen it on CBS & ABC national news and CBS local news,

Hmmmm, must not have been a knife free zone.

Saw it yesterday on one of the local Houston stations, don't remember which. You would think something like this would get a bit more attention.

It's not fairness. That's how the media plays this stuff when it doesn't further the anti-gun agenda....local news coverage, no national news coverage. It's the same with nearly all uses of a gun in self-defense....local coverage only, or scant mention in national news. Whereas any abuse of a guy, even one that doesn't result in anyone being shot, gets national news. It's not in any way "fair" coverage...it's a tactic that serves the agenda. If the guy had used a gun it would be all over the national news for weeks.

I don't know what you are watching, but is well covered by the national news here, They even gave credit for a gun ending the violence.
Normally ,I agree with you as to the bias reporting when it comes to the use of any firearm.
This event has surprised me. I am ticked they are playing it off as a disgruntled student over being kicked out of a study class and completely dismissing any theoristic implications.

At the time of the post, I was not aware of it. When I find out about a news event for the first time on the internet in an odd place, especially when it is a US college campus mass stabbing attack, I am puzzled. Since I wrote this, it has made it to the local TV news here in Houston and my wife saw it on national news.

I am sure many of you saw similarities between this event and the stabbing violence in Israel. Thus, I was surprised it did not receive immediate front page news when it happened. Glad to see afterwards, it is just an ordinary disgruntled student, and not part of a wave of Isis Jihad coming to the United States for the first time.

In this incident I was going by what others who watch the news said. I don't have TV reception and I don't watch any network news. Even if I had TV reception I wouldn't watch it because I can't stand the lies. But as others have pointed out, the nature of the coverage appears to be different. Also, I don't see it on Drudge and prominent national news stories are usually linked there.
