Should assualt wrenches be banned?

AP/Washington Post:

A mentally ill man wielding a wrench wounded 18 children and a teacher in a kindergarten in southern China before fleeing on a motorcycle and trying to stab himself to death, state media reported Saturday.

The man charged into the school Friday afternoon and started trying to hit students on the head, the Xinhua News Agency said.

"I was frightened by the scene and went to stop him," Ouyang was quoted as saying. "He hit me in the head with the wrench, but I kicked him."

She said she ordered all the children to squat on the ground, which prevented more students from being hurt.

Police and local government in Jun'an, a town in southern Guangdong province where the attack took place, said they had seen a report in the Foshan Daily newspaper but had no further details.

A man who answered the telephone at the emergency ward of Jun'an Hospital, where the victims were taken, confirmed that they treated the injured but said he wasn't authorized to talk to the press.

It is Virginian Tech all over again. A crazy man was sold or stole an assault wrench to use in an attack on unarmed students. You would think in a totalitarian society like China they would be able to control situations like this. It is too bad the teacher or the students did not have a concealed carry permit so they could pull out their Glock and stop this insanity.
