House of Commons shooting?

[silverthorn2151]

Whilst something horrid happened, done by someone full of inexplicable hate I'm a little dismayed with the level of coverage this has generated. Not that it shouldn't be reported and the immediacy of the information flow was good, to a point. Several channels talking about nothing for several hours was bordering on tedious.

It seemed like the main channels were suddenly handed an opportunity to deploys the Thunderbird 2 of news coverage depositing reporters hither and thither because they have been work-shopping and brainstorming what to do when the 'inevitable' terrorist incident happens.

BBC and ITV the morning after presented their breakfast shows from one end of Westminster bridge and one end of Lambeth Bridge for instance. Why do that, other than its part of The Plan.

I can't imagine how those involved must be feeling but I also can't help feeling a little perspective has been lost.

5 young chaps drowned of Camber Sands in August, which was truly horrid as well as this incident, but I didn't see Piers Morgan reporting from the car park the day after talking to people who witnessed very little but still got interviewed.

The worthless human that did this got his just deserts. The baying of the press branding him a 'lone wolf' credits him with a celebrity I don't think he deserved. Murdering scumbag would do better I reckon.

Fortunately - worrying.

You are worried that I want to lock up terrorists, but you're not worried about terrorists committing terrorist acts?

My words related to what I quoted.
But no I'm not worried about locking up terrorists comitting terrorist acts. That's what I'd like to happen and what is happening.
I am worried about locking up any suspected terrorists indefinitely while they're investigated without trial / until they can prove they're not a threat.

You're worried about the wrong things. Don't worry about people known to be involved in terrrorism being locked up - they don't deserve your concern. Those are the only people advocated as being locked up - at least by me

At the risk of stating the obvious this attack was carried out by a 52 year old British man, not a refugee....but yeah, Muslims innit....

Damn right. I mean this guy emigrated from Kent to London. Disgraceful. We should immediately stop all immigration.

Well, he was nominally a Muslim.

It's pretty clear that one of the most pressing problems to solve is that of radicalised a Muslim converts, particularly those converted in prison. Without wishing to oversimplify it, I'd have thought this should be a relatively straightforward problem to solve, given the closed nature of prisons,

You are aware that British people can be/become terrorists? Clue, Khalid Masood

Indeed, keep them in

We are, but as the point that Lance Catarmaran was making was that refugees are the problem it was fair of us to point out the error in his rant.

Indeed I am. However the poster refers to refugees. On this thread it would have been equally relevant to post a pic of polar bears.

ETA as Gavia points out above..

In that case I apologise profusely. I've been a maybe idiot for the last few days and have completly got the wrong end of the stick. I thought you said you wanted everyone suspected of being a terrorist to be investigated and locked up indefinitely until it was proven they weren't a threat.

I knew it, i always heard they weren't really white, it was just how light plays on their fur. Should of known....

So can anyone. The point is (as has been pointed out to you twice) someone showed a cartoon suggesting the terrorist problem was due to refugees when this thread is about a British terrorist.

It was a piss poor take on the recent back and forth i've had with a few members on here.

Whatever colour the polar bear, if it has a beard that looks like straggling pubes its best avoided.
