Armed SAS troops are disguising themselves as beggars in a bid to stop future terrorist attacks. Soldiers armed with Heckler and Koch MP7 guns and medical kits are stationed at key positions in cities and are ready to strike at a moment's notice. Troops from the Counter Revolutionary Warfare Wing have reportedly been drafted for the operation.

Security here in my neck of the woods is a old overweight guy with a beard, lots of sudden stops in life, packing a Glock 19, a 5 inch Randall 10-5 concealed and a Nightforce scope on my Larue PredatOBR 7.62x51 on the passenger seat of my old diesel pickup..... small farming / ranching community .... coyotes fear me, bad guys.... not yet.

This is absolutely the most stupid waste of time and resources imaginable. Britain is a country drowning in debt, and they do this?

This is comparable to the Captain of a flooding ship spending all his time and resources to try to organize bucket brigades to bail with coffee cups, when what he should do is send a damage control party below to shore up bulkheads, close watertight compartments, and plug holes and gashes below the waterline.

I cannot say that we are far behind Europe, but it is undeniable we still are at this point.

Western countries should stop muslim immigration immediately, screen and document who is in their countries and has not achieved citizenship, change standards and quota levels to do what is most advantageous for the country (not what is most advantageous for refugees/immigration applicants) basically, changing immigration to do what is best for a country, not what is best for Islam or special interest groups.

What we see now is insanity.

Yup, in Viet Nam we called going “white”. Probably a trigger term now. I see prepper sites using Grayman.

The UK was safer during the height of the Blitz in WW2. They foolishly let in barbarians like in ancient Rome.

Socialism, communism, facism, all forms of big government create poverty and suffering. I think there’s another serious war in Western Europe’s near future. I think it’ll be a series of civil wars between the native peoples and the muzzies with the government minions split between them.

Being secret accomplishes little. What the Brits and us are lacking is Intel. I met a 30 y/o Saudi just yesterday and after a long conversation it is obvious that he is not a zealot.

My point is that there is only one way to stop these attacks, but our gubmint is taking cues from the PC Euro weanies.

This culture began under GW and is now so endemic in our bureaucracy that future attacks are inevitable, sure to also be used to erode the Constitution. Their stealthy SAS posts are window-dressing, less as a deterrent - secret or otherwise - than just placating the public.

Idiocracy.

Ever been surprised when people you know become a born-again Christians and makes real changes to their lives? A bit unpredictable about who comes to Jesus, and not uncommon.

And it’s not uncommon and sometimes surprising when a cultural Muslim gets religious fervor and goes for violent jihad, which is a legitimate traditional expression of Islamic piety.

Ah, yea, rhe police in Indiana likes ro communicate to the media the types of guns they have all the time, the media copiously repeating it in awe, like they are some kind of big tough neighborhood honcho.

They will be used against shop lifters and other citizens.

This thing of “scare tactic” is not a deterent against terrorist attacks, nothing is,

Amazingly courageous and utterly top-notch troops, but there’s just too much area to cover.
