But this time, it's outside the USA, so it likely won't draw quite as much coverage or condemnation.
Oh, and the killer used a knife rather than a firearm, so again, expect it to receive less coverage, and don't expect many calls for "common-sense knife control".
The Detroit News: Man with knife kills 6 people at kindergarten in China before being arrested
Schools tend to be the target of choice for whackos and killers looking to make themselves infamous because the location tends to be insufficiently secure and defended, and it has a pool of victims who generally, being children, are not as able to react, fight back, and defend themselves.
The article closes with this helpful note:
China prohibits most gun ownership. Personal attacks usually are carried out with knives or homemade explosives.
And yet, even with pretty much perfect gun control, in a totalitarian state no less, massacres of innocent children by evil scum still happens. Note the emphasis on personal attacks, in China, it's the government there that uses guns to kill it's dissenters.
