See, this is what I mean by lacking facts..

For example, imagine if a 12 yr old was grabbing for a pair of scissors or a knife - what would one rather do? Shoot the 12 yr old? Pepper spray? Taser?

It's like these damn toy guns. Toy gun manufacturers are making very realistic looking toy guns - some are made of steel and with insertable magazines. Sure, they are making them put orange ends on the barrels, but geuss what? Kids are painting them black or rubbing off the orange paint.

My point is that it's too easy to make comments with only part of the story and people should not try to do that.
