MP's should remember that it was their policies that allowed this cancer into our country. Don't hold your breath though. Once again, I'm very disappointed to see a very serious topic ruined by people hell bent on disruption and abuse. The topic is the murder of David Amess, for which there is a suspect in custody. Whilst discussing how to improve our MPs security in the aftermath is a natural reaction, rushing to judgement about the motivations of the suspect is not. We simply don't know anything yet, and may not until he is tried. We don't know his mental state, or his associations. Lessons may well need to be learned, but we already know that Islamic extremism exists and is dangerous. We didn't need this incident to learn that. The immediate lessons are all about MPs security and nothing at all about what they need to be protected from.

Now you are an arbiter of what warrants a red card? Btw , you were specifically blaming the UK as the coat tails of the US. Originally posted by Maine Eagle
Do you wake up at 5am specifically to spew nonsense on this funny site? I am not apportioning blame, but American foreign policy following the ouster of the Russians from Afghanistan, did somewhat annoy Osama Bin Laden. Make of that what you will. Islamist extremists are indeed idiots, vile creatures and scum. I hope you are not calling all Muslims idiots, and denigrating their holy text, as that would appear to be so offensive as to warrant the infamous red card on these pages.
Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance. |

Was the suspect acting alone is foremost on my mind, and is there going to be more as a result of leaving Afghanistan.

This is a tragedy and I feel sorry for his family. Yesterday many MPs demanded more protection and pointed out that 6/7 of them have been killed in the last 70 odd years doing their job. I wonder how many police officers, shopkeepers, taxi and bus drivers have been murdered in the same period doing their job? This man was carrying a knife and and MPs don't like stop and search in case it offends parts of the community. I expect extra taxpayers money will be sent to protect them and I don't have a problem with that but every day people are murdered on our streets when are they going to do something about that. RIP David Amess.
The great and the good hold the reins of power and we can be pretty sure that action on MP security will be taken. I agree with you that tragedies like this need to be far harder to pull off and I also agree that as politicians they hold responsibility for the type of society this now is.

I get up at 5am to go to work to pay for the country to function. Saying I’m not bothered about thousands of people dying on 9/11 shows how silly you are, it’s hard to take anything you say seriously when you spout nonsense like that. Jo Cox was murdered by a white supremacist, born in Scotland, I wonder if England should stop Scottish people coming in? There is an active war going on between radical Islam and Europe and America. While that war rages, blood will continue to be shed, unfortunately.
Trump lost. Badly. Hahahahahahaha. |
