There is nothing wrong with running around swinging knives simply because you want to. That’s just freedom, and it’s ok.
I don’t have anything to defend myself

I’m a recovered alcoholic with 11 years sober next month. I’ve lived on the streets before. Slept in gutters. I spend a lot of time working with the homeless and addiction community now. That’s my biggest fight.
That said, yes, I’ll defend a mall ninjas right to carry painted toothpicks or katanas all the same.
You’re not supposed to run around with broomsticks if you’re not doing any actual sweeping, either. Or hang out in a dim underpass with baseball bats unless you’re an actual baseball player and are waiting for the train to your game or something.

Doh - yeah, they absolutely did. Edited.
I said 90%
No you didn’t.
EDIT: yeah they did
Exactly
A mix of mental health issues and standard human nature.
One with a knife. But my preference of enemy arms does not negate that enemy’s right to defend themself with a gun. I’d also prefer that no one ever hurt anyone else, but my preference there cannot be guaranteed.
And yes, correct, in the USA we can have guns.
