Passenger stabbed and decapitated on Greyhound bus; passengers question bus safety

Although I never took nor had any intention to take the Greyhound, I would not allow an isolated incident such as this prevent me from doing so. Certainly, anyone who is capable of carrying out such a heinous act is, thankfully, a rarity.

On the one hand, Greyhound should have taken precautions that would prevent one from taking a butcher knife on the bus. On the other, this sort of crime might have occurred in a mall, or on public transportation.

I can only guess but I imagine that the killer had chosen his victim before hand. People like this do not act on impulse. They are controlled and methodical. To say the least, he was sick beyond belief and his psychological makeup is beyond most of our comprehension. It sickens me to read what he did and sad over what the victims family must be feeling, but I will not allow myself to feel scared.
