london bridge?
good lord.
in all seriousness, which is rare for me?
i hope none of "the lads" were gallavanting around london for that 3 ring circus.
cant you lads send some of the boys 'round to sort them out? send in the "football hooligans" to clean out the "no go zones".
or, turn the IRA loose on them, i dunno...
==================================
cant you all form a "mob" like NORWAY did? this shite is getting ridiculous. AS you brits famously were quoted about wwII ? "we're not going to win this playing by queensberry rules"
and for the love of GOD, QUIT TAKING IN TERRO- ermmm, i mean "refugees"
something is going to have to be done, and its obviously going to have to be drastic.
==================================
we get this crap too, on our side of the pond? but nothing like europe is getting clobbered with it.
dont you guys have skinheads and neonazis over there, like we have here int he states? send THEM into talk to them, i dont know what else can be done.
unfortunately? the game is obviously being played by "beirut rules" and its a rough sport.

Well, I understand that, boys... but see, my CAT gets the silly idea you're making fun of HIM... then he gets, *really* mean...

Re: london bridge?
Sedders,
Thanks for your kind words.
There have been 3 terrorist attacks in the UK since March, the recent suicide bombing in Manchester and 2 attacks in London of a similar type where a vehicle was used to run down people and when the vehicle came to a stop, a person or persons came out of the vehicle and armed with knives started to try to stab people.
In the earlier attack 4 people were killed by the vehicle and one police officer was stabbed to death before the attacker was shot dead by armed police. In last nights attack, at least 7 people were killed before all 3 attackers were shot dead by armed police.
BTW it only took 8 minutes from the first report of the incident to the 3 bad guys lying dead on the pavement
These vehicle/knife attacks are essentially impossible to stop because anyone with a driving licence can rent a vehicle and anyone can arm themselves with one or more knives.
I know that many people (especially from the USA) throw their hands in the air at our tough gun laws, but the fact is that if these attackers had access to firearms they would have killed many more people.
Cheers
Bruce

Or they would have been dead before they got out the van ? Would have been 8 seconds, not 8 minutes at the very longest before someone dropped them.phoenix wrote:Sedders,

Re: london bridge?
Problem over here Sedders is the do gooders, lots of them, obviously some way of earning easy money out of it. We dare not upset the terrorist class and religion for fear of being arrested ourselves. The police would rather spend more time arresting folk who upset terrorists than the terrorists themselves.
Some folk, somewhere, somehow manage to make good money out of being do gooders and sticking up for baddys
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Just checked the news and buried at the bottom of the page is an article stating that Corbyn, leader of the opposition, says we shouldn't shoot to kill in these terrorist attacks
This is part of the problem we have, the opposition leader is buddy buddy with terrorists and a coward, and the wonderful and totally unbiased British Broadcasting Company hides this fact at the bottom of the page
It will carry on until it all bursts, then the **** will hit the fan big style.

So you're suggesting we should all walk around with loaded firearms just in case another bunch of nutter muslims decide to attack us.
First of all, how do you decide who gets to be armed - does being an muslim automatically disbar you from gun ownership?
Second, imagine everyone in the pub on a Saturday night is carrying a loaded handgun - what happens when, as is common, people get drunk and start fighting. At the moment, punches get thrown and at worst someone gets "glassed" You just know that if they had guns the shooting would start.

I don't think that could ever happen here Bruce, no way of deciding who in the general public should carry. I suppose you could take a chance and possibly arm long standing firearms owners, but even that wouldn't be foolproof. It would be the best you could hope for though at this moment in time with regard to the general public being armed and would probably remove the possibility of shootings in pub brawls.
I suppose what it really needs is a lot more armed police, but from what I hear they don't want to carry because of our legal system. If they did carry, on and off duty, then it would give a lot more coverage.
The real answer though, is as yet unknown !!

Unfortunately Adam, that's what will happen, mobs will take out anyone who could be suspicious. There is no answer at this present time that the government will implement. You could ban the muslim religion from over here, absolutely and without any leeway what so ever. Make it illegal to practice the faith, but that won't happen here. You could make it illegal to belong to any faith that condones violence or death to non believers, but that won't happen either. It could be quite simple, if you want to be a muslim then be one, elsewhere in the world. It would solve the radicalisation in schools and mosques because they would no longer exist. Can't see it happening though, can you?
I can tell you absolutely categorically what will happen though, nothing, zilch, zero until it affects the powers that be. Within hours of the Westminster attack parliament was protected by barriers and more armed police, and any MP who said he / she feared for their safety was given armed police protection. Meanwhile, Joe public is told bear up and show a brave face.
