Washington (CNN)President Donald Trump pointed out on Twitter that the Saturday evening attacks in London had not spurred an immediate debate about gun control because the attackers did not use guns.

After several tweets, including one offering US support to the United Kingdom and another criticizing London Mayor Sadiq Khan, Trump tweeted Sunday morning: "Do you notice we are not having a gun debate right now? That's because they used knives and a truck!"

The suspects in the attacks wore fake suicide belts, and mowed people down with a van on London Bridge before getting out and stabbing others. Police said they used an "unprecedented" number of bullets to take down the attackers. Guns are heavily restricted in the United Kingdom.

Before Trump's tweet, a Fox News host made a similar point, saying, "Notice we're not having a gun debate right now, because they didn't kill with guns. They killed with knives. They killed with an ideology."

I'm glad they didn't have guns or it would have been much worse.

There is a political party in the US that wants dangerous people to have guns. Are you sick of winning yet? Does it make your head spin?

Maybe some untrained civilian conservative hero would whip out their open carry long gun and make America safe from trucks and knives?

The casualties are lower than Orlando because they didn't have access to guns.

Isn't it nice to have a POTUS with the maturity and level of nuanced original thought of a Youtube comments section.
