Has anyone checked his background, his social media posts, his family, etc??? Usually there is a lot of stuff floating around cyber-land but I haven’t seen anything.

Malik Faisal Akram...yes, a nice British name, like William Barrington-Smythe.

Or the Mayor of London for his second term: Sadiq Aman Khan. The People's Choice.

The Guardian, Sept. 13, 2020 article. .... Sadiq Khan being aggressively heckled.

The mayor of London was abused as he walked back towards his office in City Hall during a protest by London black-cab drivers. During a 54-second video clip, Khan can be seen walking away impassively as he is followed by a group shouting abuse at him, swearing and calling him a “hypocrite” and “the destroyer of London”.

Khan continues to walk as they chase after him. They become increasingly aggressive and goad him to respond using a racial trope.

Last year, it was revealed that the Labour politician had to be given round-the-clock police protection after receiving a number of death threats. The measure was taken after City Hall referred 17 cases to the police in a three-month period with a further 237 separate threats made to Khan via social media.

In an interview at the time, Khan revealed that the “name-calling, trolling and threats to terrorism” had intensified since the 2016 EU referendum.

Khan, a practicing Muslim, told the Times magazine: “It can’t be right that one of the consequences of me being the mayor of London and a Muslim in public life is that I have police protection."

A quick look at his passport should clear that up. /s

I don’t know of any Texas law that says you can’t buy a gun from some guy on the street.

Is he legally in the US?


I might be wrong, but wasn’t there a time when having been a prisoner for several years was the kind of thing that meant you didn’t get a visa?

When my grandfather went through Ellis Island, he had to be free of disease, no criminal record, no revolutionary tendencies and had to have someone here to vouch that he wouldn’t become a public charge.

Aafia Siddiqui’s former husband is Mohammed Amjad Khan, a Pakistani physician.

Her brother lived in Houston, Texas in 2008. An FBI agent visited him there on a Thursday on or about August 4, 2008, to inform him she was alive and in custody.

Authorities on Sunday identified a 44-year-old British national as the man who took four people hostage at a Texas synagogue [...]

Those bloody Limeys!

And after all we did for them in double-yuh-double-yuh-two! The whole country would have gone bottom up if it hadn't been for Lend/Lease.

They'd be the smallest f*cking province in the soviet empire!
