A Tory MP was stabbed to death on Friday by a suspected terrorist.

Sir David Amess was holding a constituency surgery when a knifeman ran into the church building and launched a frenzied attack. The 69-year-old politician was wounded at least 12 times, dying at the scene.

Counter-terrorism police and MI5 were probing whether the suspect, who is a 25-year-old British Muslim of Somali descent, had links to extremists.

Horrified constituents waiting to see the veteran MP, who has campaigned to help refugees, watched in horror as the assailant leapt on him just after midday.

The police are looking at, as they put it, a British Muslim of Somali descent had ties to terrorism. I wonder what rocks they will look under to try and avoid saying this was terrorism?

We may never know the inbred psychotic Mooslim jihadi’s motive.

It's a shame people fail to see the problem.

They need to take lessons from the Americans and learn to reflexively respond “no links to terrorism”.

The plus side is that this incident proves that gun control works. No one was shot.

First they’ll bend over backwards to look for any reason not to find “extremism”.

If they do, they’ll blame it on white folks.

Stabbed him 12 times? That seems sufficient to qualify as “extreme“.

ALL muslims are subject to suddenly taking their religion seriously and acting on the instructions of their Prophet.

Sometime this is going to spark a massive revolt of the normal people.

By all accounts Sir David Amess, the Tory MP, was a loving, gentle man, and a devout Christian. He loved human life in all its forms, including the mentally disabled and the unborn. I was reading the glowing tributes to him today in the Guardian, and I was astounded by how admired he was in all across the UK.

I’m going to go way out on a limb & say yes he does. A useless waste of space in a human body. I just really hope he never gets out.

At least he died doing what he loved most. Rather embarrassing for his progeny however.

They have yet to find a motive and never will.

Muslim = extremist links.

They need look no further.

Correct, but they will look hard. Britain is to far gone to ever accept that just being a Muslim is sufficient to suddenly go Jihadi and you might never know when, or in some cases, if.

As the President of Turkey has said (and he ought to know) there is no moderate Islam, their is only Islam.
