BREAKING: Attack on British Parliament

[draykorinee]

Welcome to the 21st century, where Islamaphobia is more prevalent than fears of Shark Attacks, despite shark attacks killing more people per year than Islamic Extremists. :P

What have you got against sharks to so misrepresent them? Bloody galeophobiacs.

Asian is BBC speak for a Pakistani or Indian person. Chinese people are generally just called Chinese rather than Asian.

You realise that the entire Middle East is part of Asia, don't you?
Even Anatolian Turks are technically Asians.

[lonely zergling]

Need to know whether to call them a lone wolf or a terrorist!

Nope. We had an refugee axe attack in germany some weeks ago and he got the "lone wolf / mental illness" treatment too. Attackers get called for what they are 100% of the time.

was going to say this but you beat me to it.

One confirmed death so far (not the attacker or police officer).

Edit: One woman dead, several catastrophically injured on the bridge. Possibly a suspicious package in the vehicle.

I don't swim in shark infested waters. I do, however, live in a society where Islamic extremists can be around.

Yes that is correct but Indians, Pakistanis and Bangladeshis make up the largest portion of Asian people in Britain

Unfortunately, it will likely be one of the people that got mowed down :/ the pictures of that bridge didn't paint a very positive picture as far as survival rates go.

One woman dead, and multiple with catastophic injuries.
Some french teenagers on trip with their school were hit on the bridge.

The ISIS telegram are all talking about it, but no claim yet.

[Puupi]

The ISIS telegram

What's that?

[lonely zergling]

That's an extremely silly claim that presupposes humans are utterly unbiased and are never wrong when discussing this subject, which is simply an impossible standard that need not be considered seriously in the first place.

If there is evidence for terrorism we will call it terrorism. Easy as that. Happend 100% of the times. That dude shooting up some people in munich last year? (Iranian-german dude) was he a terrorist? Nope! Just a guy who was bullied in school and took revenge.

[Zelk]

Maybe in Germany but not here. An MP was shot and the culprit was never called a terrorist but a troubled man etc

Wonder when Donald will make a statement.

[Trollhammer]

Gotta question the intelligence of somebody who when on an attempted killing spree armed with a knife decides to try and force entry into one of the only buildings in the area with armed guards... lol.

Suicide by cop?
What exactly about this is terrorism? Usually they say that when someone invokes allahu akbar while attacking. We've heard nothing about any motive at all.

"Let those fight in the way of Allah who sell the life of this world for the other. Whoso fighteth in the way of Allah, be he slain or be he victorious, on him We shall bestow a vast reward."

Wonder when Donald will make a statement.

He already did! "Big day for healthcare, working hard"

[lonely zergling]

Dylan Roof committed an act of terrorism, yet people rushed to label him a "lone wolf."

One exception defeats an absolute. GG. Get wrecked.

Wouldnt consider what he did a terrorist attack. Just a case of mass murder out of shitty reasons. Wasnt that the dude with a mental illness too?

Mass shootings in the US are a completely different topic.

[Orbitus]

Wonder when Donald will make a statement.

Who gives a flying fuck. Donald is a fucking idiot. He will try to claim that he was right, when he still isn't.

[Turaska]

Wonder when Donald will make a statement.

By statement, you mean Twitter rant?

[Ryme]

wait, do we live in the same area? :P

I might work near you

Didnt know Westminster was in a field somewhere :P

Ha, need to update that.
