Yet Again, Too Close To Home...

I was chilling at home on leave yesterday when the news came in about the latest terrorist attack, and Twitter obligingly showed me pictures of my friend's office on London Bridge (luckily, she'd chosen to work at home) and the little Waitrose I often call in when I'm working up there.

And the incredible video of members of the public tackling the terrorist and holding him down until police arrive and deal with him as all of these animals should be dealt with...

And this morning we learn that he was a convicted terrorist freed on licence! The papers are reporting he was attending an event at Fishmonger's Hall for ex-cons. And was wearing an electronic tag.

And started his knife rampage there, before running up to near Bank station, according to the position of a body in this Tweet below, then running back to the bridge. Which seems odd.

The 'Daily Mail' is still the same, though:
An unnamed hero, who was inside the conference hall, was said to have grabbed a five-inch narwhal tusk from the wall' and went to confront the terrorist, the Mirror reported.
That's one tiny narwhal!


Yeah. That's more like it.

Should have tossed the pigfucking baboon into the thames, whats the point of having a bridge if youre not going to chuck fuckers off it!

It's really rather odd that in this incident, police shot and killed a terrorist on the floor who had already been disarmed, whereas in the Drummer Rigby case they only shot to disable, and we are now saddled with looking after the scum. In the previous London Bridge case there was also shoot to kill, but they were still on the rampage. OK, there was the bomb threat. It looks to me like Cressida Dick might have grown some balls at last. Sadiq Khan (any relative) was nowhere to be seen in the early TV coverage.

One of the more glaring flaws in our judicial system (and there are too many to list here) was the incredible release of yet another terrorist of no particular description. A lethal deficiency rapidly returns scum into society, readily facilitating new offences by established terrorists and by violent criminals.

The high-risk and common arrangement of 'early release' is managed by a left-wing setup and is obviously not fit for purpose. If any good arises from this latest attack it will be the resolve of citizens to harshly deal with such animals and in default of 'Justice'. The full concept and the mechanisms of sentencing and release must fall under intense political and public scrutiny.

Advocates of 'Early Release'...your time may be up.

Interesting to see that the bloke who grabbed the narwhale tusk to confront the terrorist was one of those much derided 'toxic white males'.................

We had an email from the mother in law shortly afterward- father in law was in Guy’s for radiotherapy at the time it was going on. Thankfully apart from being a bit delayed going home he wasn’t really affected by it.

When I first heard of the attack my first thought was for my wife who was working in Central London. I phoned her straight away and told her what had happened and that she should avoid the City area. Thankfully her work that day ws outside the affected area but it could just as easily been a stabby savage outside her office. Like Brendan O'Neil said I along with many other Britons are sick of this 'Islamic terror' shit and want the state to deal with both the perpetrators and the plotters of such terrorism by any means necessary. It's got to the stage when I'm frightened for the safety of my wife when she travels to London to work. I'm frightened of the Islamic nutjobs like we saw at London Bridge (again) and the more violent members of London's 'vibrant diversity' that brings more low level but equally worrying problems as that brought by stabby savages like Khan.

"Should have tossed the pigfucking baboon into the thames..."

I did wonder why forcing him over the balustrade wasn't an option they considered. But where he ended up isn't actually over the Thames, and if the fall onto the embankment path didn't kill him...

"It's really rather odd that in this incident, police shot and killed a terrorist on the floor who had already been disarmed, whereas in the Drummer Rigby case they only shot to disable..."

I wondered about that myself. How can we reconcile these two incidents?

"The high-risk and common arrangement of 'early release' is managed by a left-wing setup and is obviously not fit for purpose. "

Nail/head interface for once...

"Interesting to see that the bloke who grabbed the narwhale tusk to confront the terrorist was one of those much derided 'toxic white males'...."

The Poles aren't afraid to call a spade a spade. Or use one!

"Thankfully apart from being a bit delayed going home he wasn’t really affected by it."

When my friend was allowed back into her building, she took a picture out of her window. Right at the scene and forensic tent! Scarily close to home.

Good to hear your relative is OK.

"Thankfully her work that day ws outside the affected area but it could just as easily been a stabby savage outside her office."

Yes, it makes you feel as if nowhere is safe. Which is, of course, what these vermin want.
