That was my initial idea as well. Now the rented van raises more questions.

Seeing lots of cops with white shirts and ties and pretty hats with their arms folded and no guns. Worthless!!!!

I don't know why this incident isn't in breaking news. I knew there was a thread earlier, but evidently it died because it wasn't on the side bar list.

I had a devil of a time trying to find the thread as I didn't know the key words in the title. Finally tried "pedestrians" and got lucky.

Gosh, I hope this doesn’t lead to an anti-drunk-white-guy backlash. Most drunk white guys are peace loving.

LOL!

Doesn’t look white to me. Looks like it could be a cousin of the Boston Bonber brothers Tsarnev.

Oh, but you can’t expect to wield supreme executive power just because some watery tart threw a sword at you.

Who are they speculating that caused the Grenwell Tower fire?

“They just said on radio a mosque was emptying out when it happened. Whatever that means.”

The Finsbury Mosque is the most radical one in London!

Well, you’d better start “bringing it” soon, or England will drop into the dustbin of history as the first European Muslim Country. As for your Empire, it’s long gone, but you still have a country worth saving. And you had better start by arming yourselves. This quaint bullShit of unarmed cops today is sheer lunacy. What to you expect to protect yourselves with, dried out Bangers? From where I sit, as a person of English extraction, I end up wondering if we didn’t get all the English people worth getting back in 1776! I mean London has a Muzzie mayor, get serious!
The other thing you need to do is get rid of that useless tw*t that’s your Prime Minister. She can’t find her a$$ with both hands and a flashlight! Believe me, I want England to succeed, but your government is worse than ours is, and ours is a bucket of morally challenged crap weasels.

Zackly. If diversity ends up being a victim in all this, the world is worse off.

Diversity is perversity. Maybe you thought you were at the DU?

Finsbury Park ...Know the station and area very well because when I visited London 6 times between 1976-1983 ( I was quite the Anglophile in those days ) I used to stay at B&Bs just up the road at Crouch Hill and Muswell Hill in North London . Would often walk uphill from Finsbury Park Station to Crouch/Muswell . The area around the station at that time was pretty much inhabited by black folks . Ican still here the reggae music blasting out of some of the shops and flats . It was safe , though , as far as I know . Never had a problem . Can only imagine what it is like today .

Not sure why you are blaming Muslims. They are the victims. It was a white dude who hated Muslims for doing this. Prayers for the Victims. Horrible deliberate tragedy. God Bless London and England.
