There's no easy way to stop angry and/or mentally disturbed people from attacking others. Banning swords and knives won't do it; baseball bats and sharp kitchen knives are legal, deadly, AND readily accessible.

About 98% of the people who collect swords and knives are relatively normal and well-adjusted individuals. You just have to worry about the other two percent, whose sword fetish is symptomatic of other problems.
