<<I don't buy this. If the guy had had a gun, he would have probably killed more than

principal.>>
Good point. Even with an entirely legal (in the US) 9mm semiautomatic pistol with a
15-round clip, and one extra clip, he'd have 30 shots. I think he stabbed kids in four
different classrooms, so at 20 kids per classroom (guess based on US class sizes), he
had at least 80 potential targets for his 30 shots.
Not all of them would have been fatal (or even hit at all), but it's difficult to
imagine that he wouldn't have killed more than eight.
And that's just with one pistol with one reload.
