The man attacked people with a knife. No calls for knife control laws yet. The hero was a reserve deputy who happened to be armed and ended the confrontation before the police arrived. No calls for gun control yet either.

    It is still unclear what part his conversion to Islam had to do with the attacks. He may just be a very mentally ill person.

      VERY mentally ill, pending further information. The "savage" part still applies, though. You don't cure a guy like this with a Master's in psychology. You probably don't cure him at all.

        I agree Jake. Our mental health system is totally jacked. Only the mentally ill can put them selves in a hospital and they may be the worst person to make that decision. Instead they are wandering the streets. Many are homeless, a handful wind up in prison which makes them worse, and a few commit atrocities like this. Terrible.
