As someone who has taken the time to learn to throw knives pretty well, I can tell you that it takes a great deal of practice and is still not something you would want to rely on for self defense, even once you get pretty proficient. A lot of it comes down to judging distance to target, and a moving target, particularly moving toward you, would be very hard to hit reliably.
Are you sure about this? They sell them at Academy.
I believe they sell bowie knives as well, but until the September 1st law takes place, they are illegal to carry.

Excellent suggestion. Perhaps reminding them that James Holmes targeted the theater he did because he knew that there would be little to no resistance from disarmed good guys.
