You took that post completely out of context. It was directed to another poster whom I misunderstood. Please edit your post to reflect the true nature of my statement. If you can't win your argument using truth and reality, that's your problem. Don't distort other people's statements to make a fallacious point.
So what do you propose to do to the MILLIONS of peaceful Muslims worldwide to punish the actions of their extremist counterparts???
Not my concern. The 'peaceful' ones who are here now can stay. But no more in. As long as Muslims remain a small minority, they cause little harm. But as their numbers grow, so do the problems. Look it up.
Yes, he was known to authorities but they believed him to be a peripheral figure. I like how the posters of City Data act like they know more than intelligence agencies. I'd love to see these people try to work through all the information intelligence agencies receive every day and try to ascertain which threats are credible and which are not.
PS - the attacker was a British citizen, having been born in Britain.

Some people really need to learn how to read. Khan was commenting on the need for people to be vigilant, police and security services to be well-trained and prepared, you know, sensible things to do in a place that is always going to be at risk. London, and Britain in general, has been used to terrorist attacks for years. I grew up with terrorist attacks happening several times a year every single year, committed by the IRA, much more common and normal than terrorist attacks are now.
Apparently there are quite a few million who do believe it's the way to spread their Politics and Religion.
I'm sorry but you are woefully incorrect. There are approximately 1.6 BILLION Muslims across the world. The number of them who are extremists is very low, less than 1%. The number of them who actually carry out attacks is even lower.
