REPORTS OF LOUD BANGS AND GUNFIRE OUTSIDE UK PARLIAMENT

[mewzilla]

And if Parliamentarians no longer use that bridge to walk across the Thames, why? Security concerns? If so, why wasn’t the general population protected and/or warned?

Police are now officially calling it terrorism per CNN. At least they’re not calling it workplace violence.

[VanDeKoik]

Sadly you are right.

To put the “car crashed into fence” picture in perspective, it certainly seems to have hit the fencing around the Houses of parliament -

Sounds like a single pointed kinetic action.

...some people were targeted there also ( where car hit fence)

I wouldn’t have thought someone would be able to sneak into the White House grounds and peek in the windows either.

Gee, I wonder how they came to that conclusion? Must be some real Sherlocks on their team....................

Police think they have the sole attacker in custody (not saying if he is alive or not). They are conducting thorough searches of buildings in the area but so far have no basis for thinking there is more than one attacker.

In general do y’all keep them at home or lock them at club?

How awful! I know some of these places!!! How disgusting that something so terrible can occur in such a beautiful place!

Well Megan Dear, I am sure, no matter what, whoever did this, he was NOT a Muslim.

Everybody Got that?

[Karl Spooner]

If they had the intense training that the Whitehouse SS has this never would have happened.

[Biggirl]

Thank-you for that info.

After listening to Sky it sounds like the LEO who tackled the perp and suffered stab wounds was NOT armed with a firearm?! That the perp was shot by a member of a well-armed specialized protection detail guarding Parliament? Good gad, was that first LEO unarmed?÷

This is the One Year Anniversary of the terrorist bombings in Brussels! Most likely no accidental coincidence, jihadists love anniversaries.
