When you look at the criminals using guns that are murdering the vast amount of Americans in such a manner, the criminal only "owns" one or maybe two guns.

The thugs gunning down victims day after day for cars, shoes or disrespect don't have a collection of guns, they have one or maybe two.

There is no argument to be made. It wasn't a terror attack - the driver was released. I'm just pointing out the hypocrisy of the right here like the OP to immediately politicize any attack by Muslims (or one they foolishly believe to be) to call for things like Muslim ban but if it's guns how dare anybody talk about gun control. But I think you knew that.

Thousands of football fans march against terror in London | Daily Mail Online
The incident on Exhibition Road yesterday was not a terrorist related, the football fans are obviously marching in solidarity in relation to
other incidents earlier this year.

As for Exhibition Road it is home to three museums the Natural History Museum, Victoria and Albert Museum (V&A) and the Science Museum.

The Vegas shooter also allegedly owned 2 planes. That is absurd. He can only fly 1 at a time. If he had no guns perhaps he would have flown his plane into the crowd instead. The death toll could have been higher still.

We have white nationalist groups with ties to racist groups marching here, too. Another day, another march.

"...Football Lads Alliance is an English street-protest movement established in 2017. The alliance is purported to be a group of football fans concerned about the "recent upsurge" in terrorist incidents in England but has attracted criticism for alleged links to far-right politics,football hoolaganism and the behaviour of those attending marches organised by the alliance....

A march held by the group in London on 7 October 2017 was attended by figures associated with the English Defence League and other racist organisations, such as Tommy Robinson. Some attending the rally abused and threw projectiles at counter-protesters behind a police line, labelling them "****ing paedophiles".

I'm glad we're pointing out hypocrisy.

last time I checked, guns don't have a political agenda/religion and don't believe killing non-believers (including women and children) will net them 72 virgins in paradise.

Last time I check, it's not lone white men on a killing spree that is the primary cause of gun violence. It's suicide (shouldn't even be included) follow by blacks gunning each other down in the ghetto.

But the hypocritical libs don't care about reality. They just want to use a tragedy to further their political agenda, reality be damned!

But I think you knew that .

From the link :
'We want all terrorist suspects who are not British citizens, who pose a threat to society, to be permanently removed from this country,'

The OP didn't claim that the museum attack was the cause of the demonstration.
The demonstration is not connected to guns in anyway.


The demonstration marched to condemn terrorist activity in the UK, calling for suspects under investigation who are not citizens to be deported.

Yeah, what attack. It was a joke.

Witness Katie Craine said she saw a man in handcuffs being pinned down on the ground by police near a damaged car.
"He looked really proud of himself," she said. "He was laughing."

It was all a joke. Very funny if you weren't among the injured. It got more laughs than a late night comic.
