Erm....if you want someone dead, it does not matter what you use. Wars were fought with rocks and arrows and people still died. If there were no guns at all in the US, this chick would have stabbed or found some other way to kill.
Frankly, I'd rather be shot through than be hacked up with a machete. In African countries where guns are confiscated, there's edge blade warfare instead. Look at all the hack job slaughter that has been happening there..Rwanda and Darfur to name a few.
On topic, I have only one thing to say; "An armed population is a polite population." Had conceal carry been allowed, the shooter may have chosen a different plan altogether knowing she might not succeed..this is not even mentioning that she may have been thwarted in her attempt by a conscientious legal weapon carrier.
