London terror attack: Theresa May vows to battle 'Islamist extremism'
CNN ^ | June 4, 2017 | James Masters and Steve George, Propagandists

Posted on 06/04/2017 8:03:49 AM PDT by Navy Patriot

British Prime Minister Theresa May claimed there was "too much tolerance" of Islamist extremism in the UK as she vowed a clampdown in the wake of the third terror attack to hit the UK this year.

Seven people died and 48 were injured when three masked men drove a van into pedestrians on London Bridge before leaping out and launching a stabbing spree in nearby bars and restaurants.

Police said the three attackers, wearing fake suicide belts to sow further panic, were shot dead within eight minutes of police receiving the first emergency call just after 10 p.m. local time. Authorities announced 12 arrests on Sunday.

Start BANNING them! The father of that Manchester bomber is a member of Al Qaeda and STILL they let him into England!! And the bomber they knew was a radical for 5 years and they did NOTHING. Basically the English government sacrificed the lives of innocent kids so as to not inconvenience foreign terrorists. The English need to rebel and removed those responsible from their government and execute them publicly ala Mussolini. Let it be known in a big way, this BS will no longer be tolerated.

from little jereniah: "And Pamela Geller is also banned. But the UK give welfare to jihadis while more pour in."

"In a moral society, these are the criminals, and the statutes are written to protect you against them. But when a society establishes criminals-by-right and looters-by-law, men who use force to seize the wealth of disarmed victims—then money becomes its creators' avenger. Such looters believe it safe to rob defenseless men, once they've passed a law to disarm them. But their loot becomes the magnet for other looters, who get it from them as they got it. Then the race goes, not to the ablest at production, but to those most ruthless at brutality. When force is the standard, the murderer wins over the pickpocket. And then that society vanishes, in a spread of ruins and slaughter."

"When you see that trading is done, not by consent, but by compulsion—when you see that in order to produce, you need to obtain permission from men who produce nothing—when you see that money is flowing to those who deal, not in goods, but in favors—when you see that men get richer by graft and by pull than by work, and your laws don’t protect you against them, but protect them against you—when you see corruption being rewarded and honesty becoming a self-sacrifice—you may know that your society is doomed." -Ayn Rand "Atlas Shrugged"

They will have to deport half the UK and then move into Germany, France, and the rest of the EU! The UK and EU have been invaded thanks to the Leftist enablers and traitors. They’re on the verge of being defeated and overrun. It’s their WWIII after being invaded by the Muslim hordes.

Liberals including the MSM, Hollyweird, mayors, some governors, Progressive judges, and 85-90% of the US Congress are willfully aiding and abetting the same scenario here in the USA. Comments?

Suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuure she does. With “inclusion” and “understanding,” I’m sure. Meanwhile, the population remains disarmed and endangered.

Some confusion here Rose.
They managed to shoot three people dead with those ‘billy clubs’.

No confusion at all.

The policy is that some British policeman are equipped only with nightsticks (or 'batons') while some others are armed with firearms.

I read or heard that the policy is in place because firearms are not deemed necessary most of the time and that the authorities don't want citizens to become alarmed about seeing too many police walking around with guns!

Apparently the first policeman to encounter a muslim terrorist last night was one of those unfortunates equipped with only a nightstick.

When he (she?) challenged the muslim terrorist he got severely stabbed and cut as a consequence of not being armed with a gun.

Well, then they don't need to be firing them most of the time.

...the authorities don't want citizens to become alarmed about seeing too many police walking around with guns

I'll bet Londoners, after seeing cops "run away"...will now be alarmed if they are seen NOT carrying a firearm. On the other hand, the murdering-rapist raghead "citizens" need to start becoming "alarmed".

Now we know what Islam has done with all that oil money they’ve taken in for 50 years. They bought the western governments and our endlessly corrupt (and terminally stupid) political class. They knew what we were and how weak and greedy we were...and they knew they could buy who they needed to make us destroy ourselves.

Time to go balls out on restricting immigration, deportations, and surveillance and hit them harder back home. This is no longer a religion which deserves rights. It is a violent political movement aimed at taking over the world and must be stopped. The immigration polices are turning parts of Europe into hellholes where women have been raped in the street and in London and Paris you take you life in your hands to eat at a cafe. War is the answer just as it was when the Nazi’s tried to take over. The muslims strategy is to overload the western countries which are too ignorant to stop them. Poland should be the model.

I vividly remember Chruchill's speech during WWII in which he said that our enemy was Nazi extremism, and that we should not villify all the millions of good Nazis …

The Brits should pay more attention.
Back in 2015 the Obama administration identified the crux of the terrorist problem and also formulated a solution.

Ha! The current title of the article at the link says (looks like CNN changed it)...

“London terror attack: Police fired ‘unprecedented’ number of rounds”

I read on and find that the police fired 50 rounds. Who are these freaking people?

Deport them, too, while you’re in the mood.

"Let's import Islamic terrorists by the thousands. Then let's spend billions to combat them, right after they murder our citizens and we have our empty symbolic gestures and our empty babble about how we will never be cowed. Please don't disagree with any of this or you're racist."

...and that is the global Leftist approach to Islamic terrorism.
