My best wishes to the folks that were injured in their recovery from the physical and mental wounds this incident will leave.

There's no casualty reports out yet so fingers crossed it's few and non life threatening.

Bar the attacker who's confirmed dead.

your BBC link says the attacker died on the scene, so not only shot.

Good stuff they destroyed him on the spot, one less idiot walking this planet.

Was only shot, not confirmed dead when i posted. Though from the video I did get the fealing he (or she but a doubt it) wasn't likely still alive. I'll update with shot and killed

Don't jinx it.
It's only been a couple hours so we don't know how many and the extent yet.

You mean the often misquoted guy, then yes.

Don't forget to say "ban knifes". You People love your slavery in Europe. Trading rights for safety.

Only death there was the terrorist, via a firearm.

Disregard, the shitter took two innocents with them.

My right to live supercedes your right to wield boomsticks. If the attacker had a gun this would have been a lot deadlier.

[Monster Hunter]

The citizens who charged down the attacker when he had a suspected bomb attached are absolute bloody hero's.

Well done to everyone concerned, the members of the public who took on the guy, and the copper who shot him.

Charging a guy who has a bomb strapped to him (yea it was fake but no one knew that at the time) takes some serious fucking guts, courage and self sacrifice,my hat is off to those bloody hero's I hope they get civilian medals.

Europe has gone full communism with taking away people's rights. It's why your economies are under water with -0.2% growth per quarter. Nothing but regulations which harms growth.

Ignoring every thing else in your post that is ridiculous wouldn’t a -0.2 be no growth and actually decay?

[Graeham]

London really has become a scary place. Hopefully there's no deaths/permanent injuries.

We canceled our trip to Europe earlier this year. Its just going to keep getting worse unless you force these politicians out. I hope all these heros pull through. They arnt commenting on the severity of their injuries yet, so everyone in here saying noone died better hope noone does, or man, thats a bad look.

Per capita homicide rate is 5 times as high in the US as in most of europe, so if you are concerned about your safety, you should leave asap.

[Monster Hunter]

Update 2 victims have died of there injurys.

We got guns here, for better actually. Over there not only do you guys have gangs and street crime but you got Terrorism by a group of ppl that mean to replace in their entirety the prior existing population. Good luck your going to need it cause God cant help you.
