While I can't wait to see exactly how the "teddy bear softie" acted on the bus once the video is finally released to the public, if it ever is, we all know the real answer to preventing things like this from occurring again in the future is a commonsense weapon safety regulation, namely a total ban on the possession of assault machetes. An assault machete is defined as any machete have two or more of the following features: 1. a handle, 2. a blade exceeding one inch in length. That should fix it. Of coursse law enforcement officers would be exempt.

Ban machetes.  Any time someone uses something to kill someone, ban it because if we can save just one life........

Even if Mr. Security was there, he's unarmed and only gets paid $10/hr.  He wont risk his life against someone with a weapon.
