The tube attack

Even if they are able to disarm and arrest her?

Shoot and kill. No expensive trial, no costly imprisonment, no appeal and no compensation for any non existent breach of human rights.

Bury the scum-bag inside the carcase of a pig.

Win win.

I concur (apart from the bury him inside the carcase of a pig.... What a waste of potential bacon)

Leytonstone is in London, and the area is well supplied with regular police from the Met.

How many of these regular police are actually armed though? (not with crappy tasers, but with real proper criminal stopping guns) Should all police be armed then?

 

[JohnD]

The Met has quite a lot of firearms officers, some of them driving around or positioned ready to respond to a call.

Are you suggesting that, because in this case the nutter was disarmed and arrested, there was a shortage of police?

In one interview they said it took over ten minutes for the cops to arrive. Then the Keystone Cops turned up.

Most terrorists are happy ( brainwashed ) to die "for the cause".

I'm pretty sure that was not true of IRA terrorists, who only blew themselves up by mistake and avoided gunbattles with anyone armed

He meant muslim terrorists, FFS John. You know, the ones who you are happy to let in, in big numbers. The ones who turn on their gullible 'hosts' at the drop of a hat. Your pet religion.

As usual, trying to downplay the dangers of unchecked immigration and avert attention from the absolute disaster that is multiculturalism. Prepare to defend your position as many more innocents die or get injured.

Excellent work by these "keystone cops" in disarming and arresting the suspect.

Perhaps they are better at their jobs than you thought.

I have not seen a log of timings so (like you) I have no idea if the estimate is accurate.

 

[joe-90]

So if he'd stabbed a dozen people that would have been ok? Let's teach the French how to deal with terror attacks. Keystone Cops conquer all.

 

[JohnD]

You appear to be assuming that additional force and weapons were unavailable. Why are you making that assumption?

 

[Nige F]

surely anyone shouting 'Alan's snack bar' or in this case 'For Syria', should be treated as a terrorist.

If you are dealing with a nutter, you can expect them to shout all sorts of things. He might equally have been shouting "No Pope here!"

Quite a normal phrase in Lewes on the 5th

Not at all. Pray tell, how are these officers deployed and positioned ready for such an event? Do they have some form of sixth sense so they can be in the right place at the right time? London is a rather large place so please do tell us how they cover all of it, all of the time?
PS I for one am glad this chap is able to stand before a court and answer for his crimes. Whether he'll get a just sentence or not, I don't know. There's no doubt loads of human rights solicitors queuing up to represent him. He might even get a QC

Because that's what witnesses said. Have you seen the bumbling video?
