The knife attack WOUNDED twenty-two children.

None of the children who were shot at Sandy Hook survived.

yes, I know that. I think you are missing the main point which is “don’t blame the tool, blame the fool who uses it.” Bad people will use what is at hand: gasoline, as pointed out in a post upstream; a vehicle, driven into a crowd, the list can be endless.
