    Because knives are easy to hide, and it only takes one free hand to grab an officers gun.

      That isn’t why. That’s the excuse.

        That is in fact why. It only takes a moment of inattention. Even if they are 90 it’s not like they move in slow motion or something. Sure, they can slow down with age, but that’s not universal.

          Ok, so what’s the problem if a 93 year old stabs a cop that’s come to kill her?

            Seems incredibly hyperbolic to say he’s there to kill her, but you do you.

        Few people can discern the difference.

      I would be most interested in talking to the 93 year old woman that can successfully grab the officer’s gun.

      I’d imagine she makes amazing blueberry muffins.
