> you have the right of self-defense in Britain, but only as far as your improvised-weapon fighting skills will take you <

The only legal self-defense device in the UK is - get ready for this - a personal alarm. A noise-maker, in other words. So forget about bringing a gun to a knife fight. You can’t even bring pepper spray to a knife fight.

Have they announced he is Muslim and was acting out a jihad attack? I thought often they have to search for a motive, search for anything in the background of a perpetrator to uncover possible motives.

I took one look at the knife, and jumped to that conclusion. I’m sure the “investigation” will bear me out.

I don’t know when their next Mayoral election is, but I think Khan will be toast.

A man took the knife away from the terrorist. The police shot the terrorist dead. Headline will be: Unarmed man shot dead

Well, London cops removed him from being able to provide any background intelligence on those who helped him.

Sorry to be so cynical.
