Oh man and further, knives are just way more accessible than guns are in general. Every kitchen in a household has a knife. Not everyone owns a gun and yet the fact that it accounts for 41 percent of global violence is not the defense you think it is

This is a completely useless statistic unless you pair it with effectiveness or ratio of victim vs perpetrator.

If we’re talking hypothetically then the knife. Preferably one that I can pull quickly like a switch blade. Guns are too hard to pull on someone rapidly closing distance on you in the case of a completely random attack and while a knife is chaotic, at least I’ll be able to use it at close range.

If you had someone attacking you would you want them to have a knife or a gun?

In other words, if you're an animal you'd better be either cute or beneficial to human agriculture or you're fucked.
