There’s an epidemic of knife violence across America; although, you’ll rarely hear of it in the headline news. You won’t hear Joe Biden crying onstage about it, or watch late-night liberal comedians tear up talking about knife attacks.
However, they should be. Knife attacks are on the rise in America; they show the danger of mentally unstable people getting ahold of easy-to-access deadly weapons.
While the left loves to warn us about the danger of firearms in the wrong hands, they rarely acknowledge just how dangerous a knife can be in the wrong hands. Leftists never talk about how easy it is for someone to silently and fatally approach with a knife in their pocket.
The latest example comes out of the Tacoma suburb of Auburn, Washington.
Awful Attack at the Auburn Walmart
Working at Walmart isn’t always easy, as anyone who works there can tell you.
Large department stores have their share of stress and problems. This has been the subject of comedy in shows like Superstore, but it can also drive some mentally unwell people over the edge.
That’s what appears to have happened on Wednesday at the Auburn Walmart when an employee viciously stabbed a fellow employee numerous times.
The two had apparently gotten into an argument that turned emotional; this is when the attacker apparently grabbed a knife and went berserk. As we all know, department stores generally have plenty of knives in the kitchen section, which are not secured behind glass in most cases.
Perhaps this needs to change. This was a very serious attack, and the victim was rushed to the local hospital in critical condition.

Why Did This Happen?
The details of the fight have not been released, but it’s clear the problem with violence in America is not just limited to guns. In fact, the amount of people who safely use their firearms and legally own them with no criminal activity is extremely high.
The real problem in this country is criminals and violent, mentally unwell individuals threatening the safety and rights of fellow citizens. The problem is also gangsters, thugs, and illegal immigrants getting ahold of black market weapons and attacking others.
Those who can’t get ahold of firearms can easily get weapons such as knives. This is what we saw in this disturbing attack that shows you aren’t even necessarily safe around your own coworkers at your job.

The Bottom Line
America’s social fabric is ripping apart.
There are too many people on the loose with unresolved issues. Part of it is the pandemic that destroyed many people’s mental stability; another part of it is the way our mainstream media has encouraged racial and political division.
We need to make it crystal clear that attacking another person for their words is never right, whether you’re Will Smith or a regular guy from Auburn, Washington.
