Fortunately, no one seems to have suffered any major injuries. I guess the good guys without guns were able to subdue the attackers without any fatalities.

Only moderate injuries, which isn't nothing. It's hard to take down a knife wielder without getting cut. I'll bet there were some sutures being sutured in Auckland's emergency room.

They don't publish suspect names?

It's because most "illegal guns" start out perfectly legal. Most of the "illegal guns" confiscated in New York City were legally purchased in Florida, Virginia, or Pennsylvania. My wife grew up in Dubuque, Iowa and it was no secret people were buying guns there to bring them into Chicago.
Restricting guns will in fact take them out of the hands of criminals. |
