Besides the important things you pointed out, I'd like to add one more. The killer didn't use a firearm, so maybe "the system" worked in that regard. However, he WANTED to harm/kill other people, and he still found a way to do that, despite not having a firearm. Which, IMHO, just confirms that it isn't the weapon, but the intent of the person using it, that matters.

I think I understood the point.

Notice the focus is on what a good, normal person he was. No mention of the knife outside of the title, and every other instance mentioning the violent act is called an "attack" not a stabbing. If a gun had been used, you can bet that the type of gun and the fact that it was a shooting would have been all over the article.

@Dale Blanker - this is exactly why the Statesman is not the wonderful unbiased source of information that you seem to think it is.
