Well...its almost the same here in Canada too nowadays, and it is getting worst year after year....
The suspects received returning fire, one was wounded and then they decided to kill themselves. Perhaps this is a case of CCW limiting casualties to 5 instead of 15.

the bodies of the cops were covered with the "Don't tread on Me" flag (Tea Party)... wonder what Glen Beck , Sarah Palin , Ted Cruz and etc. think about their "message" now?

or people with guns don't trust other people with bigger and badder guns... its a dick measuring contest... against the police... you lose
Almost a daily occurrence? More like 30+ firearm homicides a day in the U.S. but you won't hear about most of them. By comparison, Canada averages 1 firearm homicide every two days.
My reply refers to the OP's comment that death by gunshot is an almost a daily occurrence. Since you are asking the question about murders by knife or blunt instrument, I presume you already know the answer. Why don't you tell us fuji?
From what I could find, here's the answer to your question. Now, your point is fuji?
Daily homicides by knife in Canada: .45
Daily homicides by knife in the U.S.: 4.6
Daily homicides by gun in Canada: .5
Daily homicides by gun in the U.S.: 30
and with probably 100x times more knives than guns available.. the gun homicide rate still trumps it 15 fold
His point, in the immortal words of the late great Bill Hicks, is "there is NO connection between having a handgun and shooting someone with it, and not having a handgun and not shooting someone with it, and you'd be a fool and a Communist to make one."
