Nine people have life-threatening injuries after the stabbings on a train in Huntingdon. This man was repeatedly stabbed in the neck and body as he protected a young girl.

Amazing what some men will do to protect us from other men ❤️

And another example of why not having guns so easily available like in the US saves lives. People say "it's the person not the weapon", but the person with a weapon that can't instantly kill hundreds, only maybe one or two, and they are way more likely to survive, makes a huge difference and makes heroes more likely to be successful in blocking an attack.

    The worst person you know will be vehement that guns are needed in the UK because ‘a good guy with a gun’ would have stopped the knifeman 🙃

    And killed multiple bystanders in such tight quarters. But they should have had their own guns to protect themselves and everyone in the train car should be dead other than the gun holders with magical armor from all the bullets..../s but this is basically how it's presented in the US as well as other countries trying to have mass murders like the US so they can sell more guns. And I say this as a gun owner, but mine never leaves the safe in the house because it's only for self defense on my home when the economy collapsed next and everyone else has one.
