‘Stampede’ on London Train as Man Stabs, ‘Rampages’ with ‘12 Inch Blade’
Breitbart ^ | 3 Oct 2018 | Liam Deacon

There was a mass panic and “stampede” after a man was stabbed in broad daylight on a London train, by an attacker allegedly screaming “I will kill you” whilst brandishing a 12-inch blade.

One man was hospitalized and another arrested for attempted murder after what British Transport Police called a “serious stabbing” on a London Overground train at Hackney Central station shortly after 6 pm Tuesday.

“Full on stampede on the train after a man was attacked on the train coming into Hackney Central, 5 feet away from where I was sitting, people dropped phones and bags, hope victim is OK,” tweeted witness Hazel Orton.

Now that is one of the most ignorant things that I have ever sen in my several decades of life. Maybe the perp thought the person he stabbed looked like one of these and he was trying to turn-in his blade???

I guess a law to replace standard & philips screws with hex screws will be forthcoming in an effort to rid their island of assault screw drivers...

Under the knife control laws in Britain if this alleged perp doesn’t have a good reason for possessing a 12 inch blade he could get into a lot of trouble.

He was doing the will of Allah. Isn’t that a good enough reason?

...the incident is “not being treated as terror-related”.

But they won’t release the perps identity? Uh-huh.

Might as well go with cadmium-plated Torx screws. Better security, you know, and will hold up for a while what with climate change affecting the British Isles.
