More Terrorism

I have heard that said, but the numbers of police supporting being armed will increase where and when it becomes essential.
Police are obviously very vulnerable without fairly powerful arms - tasers or handguns, therefore so is the rest of the public.
I still think of the policeman (also an ex soldier) guarding Westminster who died bravely trying to stop a knife man, as an example of the need for more armed police.

If you think all UK police should be armed with firearms then you're going to lose the 2 thirds that the other 1 third think shouldn't be armed, because they'll never pass the strict testing & training they have to go through.

If you import half the world's ethnicities without proper screening then you are going to get the bad along with the good.
Having said that most migrants are no better or worse than any other people.
Now that the UK has adopted a policy of multiculturalism rather than compulsory assimilation with the majority population the UKs major Cities are a now a hotbed of marginalised subcultures.
You have people from abroad who have lived in Britain for decades , they have British passports but they still can't speak a word of English because they only interact with their own community.
So it not surprising that you have these individuals who have problems identifying with mainstream society.
It is the same up in Scotland, in Glasgow a while back there were sectarian riots over religion, Celtic and Rangers football matches are just war by another means.

This ISIS terrorism comes entirely from one culture. The muslim culture. Of course the vast majority of muslims arent terrorists but peace loving British citizens like the rest of us. But we must be able to discuss this problem without being called racist, but at the same time avoid increasing Islamophobia, which is already quite high in this country.

As a student I lived in High Wycombe, which has one of the highest asian communities in the UK. It did shock me that many of the muslim womwn didnt speak English. The muslim community were all based around one part of the town, it was very rare to see Muslims in the shopping centre.

It does seem like amongst the Muslim community there is a lack of integration with British society. I dont khow if this is a reason for radicalisation, but non integrated sub cultures do seem to create them and us attitudes.



How we solve ISIS terrorism and radicalusation, goodness knows.

This is what 'they' want you to believe. If you actually talked with a muslim you would find that there is no place for terrorism in Islam.

You are part of the problem. Until you can think clearly & independantly of your MSM then this problem will never go away.

Where does it come from then?
Because from what I see, it's a warped, extreme view of Islamic faith, and Islamism is the hook that reels the idiotic people in.. The religion has been hijacked & warped by terrorists, granted, but it still stems from Islam and it's still Muslims who are members.

That is no doubt true.

Not all Muslims are terrorists.
But these radicalised jihadi terrorists are virtually all muslims - not true muslims but 'in the name of'.

ISIS terrorism and ideology has its roots in the middle east.
The Manchester bomber is a case in point,
If you go back to David Cameron's decision to bomb Libya in support of anti Gaddafi rebels, In order to get support for his intervention in Libya Cameron dishonestly portrayed these rebels as ordinary Libyans trying to remove a tyrant.
The rebels in question were actually Islamic fundamentalists linked to Al Qaeda , with the help of NATO Gaddafi was deposed and Libya descended into civil war, with Gaddafi gone the fundamentalists grew in strength and it was from this background the Manchester bomber emerged.
Because the government had a policy of allowing British /Libyan nationals to travel to Libya to fight against Gaddafi even though the government must have been aware that these people were dangerous Islamic fanatics the Manchester disaster was bound to happen sooner or later.https://www.middleeasteye.net/news/sorted-mi5-how-uk-government-sent-british-libyans-fight-gaddafi
 
Public services and public safety need public spending.

Just as the Cons reduced numbers of police and nurses, and now demand credit for undoing some of that damage, they have also damaged the justice system.

"Visiting London Bridge, the prime minister attempted to deflect blame, saying: “I’ve argued that when people are sentenced to a certain number of years in prison they should serve every year of that sentence.”

But the focus switched to efforts made to deradicalise prisoners when Nazir Afzal, the former chief prosecutor for North West England, intervened by revealing his private conversation with Mr Johnson.


Johnson under pressure to explain release of London bridge terrorist
He said he had raised the problem of terrorists being released “whilst ostensibly rehabilitated but still radicalised” in many government meetings, before raising it with Mr Johnson in June 2016.


“He asked me what keeps me awake at night and I told him it was this issue,” Mr Afzal said.

“When he wanted to know what to do about it, I told him it was more resources for one-to-one deradicalisation.

“Back then, he hadn’t found the ‘money tree’ so he frustratingly said there was no money.”
 
An audit of British military campaigns since the end of the Cold War found the 2003 Iraq invasion (Labours war) and occupation had helped spread terrorism and led to the deaths of at least 100,000 Iraqis and coupled with the war in afghanistan cost the UK taxpayer £29 billion.

Yes thats correct. No money in the kitty.

As a former Slough boy I'm not entirely convinced by that claim, or are you referring to the fact Wycombe is in the Chilterns?
 
Trouble is, the idiots who support filling our country with these psychos are the same idiots who decry the yanks for their gun ownership and heavily armed police. They won't be happy until we're all sitting ducks.

So people who think gun ownership in America are idiots.

Well, its a view I suppose.
 
Where does it come from then?

Isis are as close to Islam as the Ku Klux Klan are to Christianity . . . . Do we place the blame on Christianity?

That is exactly what my jibe about armed police was aimed at, - the police being inadequately protected against criminals and terrorists and therefore leaving the public also unarmed and unprotected. If that were to continue, then the public should have the right to arm themselves.
It almost certainly will not happen in most of U.K. hopefully (as we do not admittedly want to be like USA)
It should be noted that in Northern Ireland terrorists often attacked people in public or in their own homes unopposed as most ordinary public members were unarmed thanks to British laws banning ownership of self protection weapons.
