13430772, This is a ridiculous argument. How many people died from Knife wounds
Posted by Buddy_Gilapagos, Thu Apr-22-21 05:45 PM
compared to frying pan attacks in a given year?


2 minutes of googling gave me this:

According to the FBI, across the United States in 2018, there were: 1,515 deaths by knives or cutting instruments, 443 people were killed with hammers/clubs/other blunt objects, 672 people were killed from fists/feet/’personal weapons’ compared to the 297 killed by (any) rifles.

3 times as many people died from stabbings versus blunt objects.
