It's all so damn depressing.
How many deaths could you have attributed to the Mafia over the decades? Close your borders to Italians did you?

Cripes it beggars the imagination as to why you would show anything other than sympathy for any country experiencing these events as you've had more of them than ANY other country on the planet.

Were you to think of every instance a death has occurred at the hands of someone like this in the U.S. and linked it to immigration; you would have had to have put a complete halt to all immigration before the Mafia even hit town.

Give the faux superior attitude a rest, you have neither the logic or the moral currency on your side to float that boat.


Have you ever looked at the Wikipedia entry for "Islamic terror attacks"?? I am quite sure you have not. You have your blinders on, after all.
(If you DO choose to look it up, leave yourself at least a good half hour to read the whole list.....it's a very, very long one....)


Oh, and London is simply CRAZY about "multiculturalism". Their new mayor, Mr. Kahn, is a "feather in their cap"......shows how wonderfully progressive and enlightened the city is, after all......the city is overwhelmingly leftist and so if Islamic terrorists have to hit somewhere in the UK, I'm glad it was filthy London.....

Confirmed: London Attacker Identified As Abu Izzadeen (Not Asian)

The attacker has allegedly been identified as Abu Izzadeen (aka Trevor Brooks), a British native and second generation Jamaican, who’s been in trouble with the law for his radical Islam advocacy.


So much for being Asian...

Oh FFS, this is a huge stretch even for you.

Mafioso weren't (and arent) driven by religious and political ideology to plan random attacks on innocent people in the public for the purpose of maximum casualties in the name of a feckin' idol.

Do better, Bru. Please?

Thoughts with those in London, especially the three people killed....

Obviously, the answers are that it is the humane thing to do, and civilized societies are humane. The other answer is that by preserving his life, it might be possible to learn if others were involved and what led him to commit this terrible atrocity.

Now that he has died despite receiving prompt and appropriate medical attention - he may well become a martyr to those who share his probable beliefs. That does not mean that he should not have been stopped at all costs - the police did exactly the right thing.

My deep sympathy to the people of Great Britain and other countries whose citizens were killed or injured in this horrific attack. I, too, have walked over Westminster Bridge and read Wordsworth's poem composed upon it, long ago....I hope that "calm so deep" will return to London and the rest of the world someday.
Around 6 weeks ago there was a similar incident in Aus, where a man drove down a busy city street and killed 6 people, including a 3 month old baby (he wasn't Muslim, so apparently the incident doesn't matter as much)...anyway he was shot by police - and admitted to hospital. Nurses and doctors had to treat him the same as the 30 other people who he injured in his crazed attack.
Would have been difficult to do - knowing what he just did....

Yahoo called it a 'firearm incident' I kid you not. I even took a screenshot of that.
