Man, and I was tying to convince my wife to spend some time in London. Forget that now. She already refuses to go to France, Germany, Netherlands, etc.

Looks like it was the cops doing the shooting on this one. Still, it's terrible to hear all these innocent people being hurt/killed. Glad they caught this one alive.

Nope he died.

The fact that no mention of the suspects description or name has been released speaks volumes. A description at least, I could see the name being held by the police so they can check his home, cell contacts, computer history, people he associates with before making it public.

No description of the subject, but yet there's a statement from the Islamic Council of Britain.... If the dudes name was Charles Emerson Winchester the 3rd you can bet the name would be public already.

The use of the car and a knife in the attack demonstrates quite well the futility of gun control: where there's a will, there's a way.

And authorities are calling it "terrorism". I'm betting it wasn't a Mormon.

My folks just went through Heathrow en-route to Scotland yesterday, could have been a wreck with their travel plans if this cowardly scum bag struck early. Such a tragedy these brain washed filth unleash on society if they could only be identified in kindergarten and disposed of before they grow up. D.H.

Try having kids in school that are the age to travel on exchanges etc. it's very difficult to get them to Europe with the turmoil over there. I have a niece going to Peru this spring, originally they were planning on Paris. Several school districts banned travel to Europe last spring after the Brussels Muslim attack. My daughter went to Germany a couple days after that, but the trip was on hold until parents revolted and told the board the kids were going. As the situation in Europe has become more unstable I can't say I'd let my child or endorse anyone I know going over there.

Scary part is the terrorists are now following the Paris freak and using vehicles into crowds. Hard enough to bust a plot before, how do you defend against a vehicle on the road?


That pic is frustrating. Assuming that's the guy, he goes out and harms many innocents and gets proper first aid, probably segregation cells with his own religious group and a court appointed lawyer to fight the charges in return.


I'm getting jaded watching the terrorists win, the lack of news media wanting to report it or upset a group of people, the politicians who do the same. The SJW who always seem to find a way to defend a terrorist instead of acknowledging there is a growing extremist problem. Maybe they should leave the next few terrorists to die a slow death on the street for all the other wannabes to see and just worry about the victims well being.

Fortunately for the British Taxpayer the redical cleric perished from the wounds inflicted by the good guys with guns.
