By the Second Amendment Foundation In the aftermath of Wednesday’s brutal stabbing attack in Florida, the Second Amendment Foundation today asked whether Congressional Democrats will now start pushing knife control. “Five people were brutally stabbed,” said SAF founder and Executive Vice President Alan M.
