Trump supporters tried to arrest Mayor of London and hang him

[Sunseeker]

How is it even remotely the same logic when there's only one group in what he said, but two groups in what you compared it to?

I'm assuming the answer will the that all Muslims are really secret ISIS agents, or something along those lines.

[Mormolyce]

That is the same Logic as if I started calling every Isis Member a Hillary supporter since Muslims vote like 95% democrat.

I think you need to take your pills again lol.

'Dozens' of terror attacks? Good to know blatant lying isn't exclusive to American conservatives.

Pathological lying is for alt-righters, though. Nationality doesn't matter in this regard, as long as they are one of the alt-right.

Not at all, but Khan is a fucking horrible mayor. I mean he's had half a dozen terrorist attacks happen under his term, and he still reduces the money spent on actual police in favor of E-bobbies catching trolls on the internet.

Haven't the Tories been in power in the UK for the better part of a decade?

Part and parcel of living in a big city i guess.

Hey, you are trying to twist the words that Sadiq said, but you took it completely out of context like a standard Trump supporter. Why am I not surprised?

[Noradin]

Muslims? No, he was talking about Democrats!
(Who are all Hillary suppoters, secretly Muslims, openly ISIS, and imaginary traitors! Obviously!! You can tell by their voting habits, we should make those public!)

Nothing beats standard right-wing hyprocrisies like lamenting about having your country seized by foreigners and lauding mostly foreign leaders, including autocrats. Also in the same vein: Emphasize that Trump being democratically elected must be respected at all costs while promoting imagery that sees your own democratically elected leaders hanging from gallows and lamp posts.

Because he's not over reacting and he's trying to make informed decisions based on statistics, not sensational news.

You have more chance to die choking on your food watching TV than dying of a terrorist attack. Terrorism, as hideous and repulsive it may be, is not a common occurrence. We see every terrorist attacks being covered by the news media ad nauseam and that's why you'd think those events are common. In fact, the very definition of news is something highly uncommon that just happened.

Terrorism is a very minor, microscopic issue among the vast sea of issues a megacity like London must face on daily basis. Not over reacting and dramatically changing the budget and the landscape of the city, interfering with the freedom of the population over minor issue is a mark of someone understanding how to run a city.

You don't.

They voiced support for Donald Trump, ergo they are Trump supporters. It's not a difficult leap of logic to make.

You must be new to the politics subforums. Here, have a cup of Dribbles' Dribbles to keep you cold. Jokes aside, just because you voice support for Trump, you are not a Trump supporter in the eyes of the woke independents of this forum. After all, they themselves prove that you can support Trump all the time, defend his policies, deride his opponents, while still staying independent. They only need to say they are independent and never explicitly say 'I am a Trump supporter!' and then it is so.

You can fault that logic, but at least they are consistent when they project this onto those Brits.

I’ve seen people complain about others insulting Trump. To only call him a moron, when being pointed out they are defending Trump... then continue to argue that insulting Trump is wrong, because he didn’t mean that all other countries are shit holes.

As backwards as it sounds. I think it’s more of an insult for a Trump supporter, to be accused of defending Trump. Than it is for a Trump hater to be accused of the same. One results of ‘lolz check my post history’, while the other starts calling people deranged. It’s pretty interesting to watch...

Haha. No.

Sorry, but when someone openly says they support Trump then the only logic is they are a Trump supporter. There's no other logic to be done.

[Stormspark]

Well, "logic" and "Trump supporter" don't ever belong in the same sentence.

[Noradin]

Well, "logic" and "Trump supporter" don't ever belong in the same sentence.

But they do.
There should be a "no" somewhere in there, too!

I wish I was making this up. The group of men, led by a man named Davey Ruseel, who is also evidently a leading member of the English Defense League, accused London mayor Saqid Khan of treachery, tyranny and disrespecting President Trump. Another person they wanted to 'arrest' was an MP by the name of Kate Green who was chairing the event that Khan was speaking at.

Obviously, they were escorted out by security but it is both disturbing and hilarious that they thought they would accomplish something.

Khan took it all in stride, of course, taking a shot at Trump by calling the men 'very stable geniuses' once they were escorted out of the room.

HAHA love this man already

Maybe not making literal slums and do some form of civic planning to make it so Immigrants don't just live in huge blobs inside London so they can despoil it happily?

I doubt civic plannig has jurisdiction over which ethnicity is allowed in a given neighboorhood.

[Noradin]

I doubt civic plannig has jurisdiction over which ethnicity is allowed in a given neighboorhood.

They have "jurisdicition" of where they support social housing schemes and they have "jurisdiction" about what kinds of rent they cover for the poor.
It is not really "all immigrants" that are a problem, it is more that those immigrants that are needed to do jobs nobody else will do due to lack of pay who won't have much to spend on rent.
Unfortunately those groups are the same groups politicans don't want to place right in good neighbourhoods because the public will protest and whine about having poor people in well-off areas.

He won some points with that response.

Wut. Are you serious?
