Perhaps it is just a case of, sometimes an ugly thing happens that doesn't have any great meaning in the good or ill of society -- it's just a bad thing, that happened. It's an isolated incident.

Uh oh. I think I'm channeling.:-)

Iss, you could be channeling, except statistics show that the events discussed in the thread I referred to are not isolated, but part of an ongoing pattern.

So far as I know, there is no growing trend of bus stabbings.

So far as I know, stabbings and other attacks are not limited to buses, nor are they isolated, nor is defense against such attacks limited to bus riders, nor is this conversation.:-)
