I was going to start taking odds that the suspects were Muslim but we all knew the answer so it would have been a waste of time.

I got the FoxNews Breaking email and then checked FR.

Nothing...

So that’s when I started cranking out the post and even checked again before I hit the post button but we must have it it within 3 seconds of each other. ;)

I’ve noticed fewer threads and comments lately. Not sure what that means or if FReepers are just busy doing other things.

The article states that they weren’t UK citizens, and ranged in age from 20 - 55.

Something tells me this Pope will not die a ‘natural death’.

One of the religion of peace adherers will pull a Gavrilo Princip, and all hell will break loose.

No, probably the Mennonites or Budhists this time.

Always please use proper headlines and links. It is far better to have a real thread in Breaking News, as opposed to one that amounts to a Tweet.

According to British newspapers, there are no “Arabs” in Great Britain, only “Asians.” Odds are good that the next report will describe the subjects as “five Asians.” So I’m thinking that it is likely that the five men are a Buddhist, a Hindu, a Sikh, a Shintoist and a Confucian.

Just remember, these are radicals who do not in any way represent Islam by doing what the Koran actually says.
