Numbers weren't important. Murder with a knife is visceral and more graphic, more provocative and personal. These killings are being done to extract as much fear as possible. Killing people with a firearm is efficient but isn't nearly as terrifying as being stabbed to death. Butt you wouldn't understand that cause you're busy with your logical fallacies, trying to justify islamic murder. What will you compare it to when they start beheading their victims? Have you ever cut the head off a king salmon? Breakdown of society is their goal and you are helping them. Sad.
