I’ve seen two updates quoting UK police/authorities saying they know the name of the attacker but aren’t releasing it yet.
I have a feeling it is the Abu I. guy but they just are pretending it isn’t for their own reasons.
They knew very soon....intellegence agencies all over the world were on it immediately.....espcially since they didn’t have to chase after the guy..as with others.
Furthermore...they aren’t going to confirm anything more than they have to until they have followed all the tentacles of this guy....from the Mosque he ‘s a part of...to family...to all his social contacts.....lots of work to make certain as few people as possible cannot get away who knew of this.
When I was absent from FR, I missed your to the point and educated comments.
Not enough. They do a weekend course every six months in unarmed arrest and restraint techniques. I’ve had over a decade of experience martial arts training (inclusing Ju Jitsu and Krav Maga) and even with that I am not confident that I could take on a knife wielding attacker and not end up getting stabbed or slashed 100% of the time. The average bobby does a hell of a lot less training than I’ve done and they’d be damn lucky if they managed to pull off a successful counter attack and disarm. They do in fairness have a baton and cs spray though.
True, in a knife fight you’re probably going to get cut. There was an infamous case in Tucson some years ago where a U.S. Navy SEAL was stabbed to death in a restaurant parking lot following some type of stupid encounter. Anyone is vulnerable, no matter their training.
If someone is just an average joe armed with a knife, you might have a decent chance with training. If the guy with a knife has knowledge of how to use one properly and you are unarmed, run-fu is your only real option unless you have a gun or some other projectile weapon like a taser.
Yes, and those Americans believe propaganda about peace and love. mohammed began a sickening, perverted, death cult.
Few Muslims will actually kill infidels as they are commanded to do but the majority will do all they can to support the overthrow of infidel government in support of their Sharia Laws from he$$.
The best way to stop terrorist attacks like these is to remove as many Muslims as you can and track the rest. They are all commanded to kill infidels.
Many more Americans will have to die before President Trump will be able to lead the charge to remove Muslims from the west. Every one of these cult members is a potential mass murderer.
