Chinese Preschoolers Hurt in New Attack


BEIJING — Continuing a bizarre series of attacks on Chinese schoolchildren, a man broke into a primary school in eastern China on Friday and beat five preschool children with a hammer before setting himself afire, the state-run Xinhua news agency reported.

It was the fourth assault on Chinese students in little more than a month, and the third in three days. On Thursday, a 47-year-old unemployed man stabbed 28 children and 3 adults at a kindergarten in Jiangsu Province, on China’s east coast just south of Shandong.

On Wednesday, a 33-year-old ex-teacher with a history of mental illness stabbed 15 children at a primary school in Leizhou, in Guangdong Province.

That attack occurred on the same day the authorities executed another man, 42-year-old Zheng Minsheng, for a March 23 knife attack at a primary school in Fujian Province that left eight children dead.

2. If knifes were illegal no one would have them. Next up, make hurting people illegal. Then all

will be well and people will obey the laws....

4. And just think how much better they could have done with automatics.

It is just frightening to know you're serious about that idiotic remark.

5. Hard to get automatics even here. But those criminal types don't adhere to the law much

Who do you think should own guns, just our trustworthy people in government?

3. What a very odd fad.
