Default Another attack on the UK

Knife attack after car mounts pavement in London - reports

Major cities in the UK are probably not the place to be at the moment. There were armed police at Legoland last week when I visited.

Watching sky news via the internet - London bridge a van hit pedestrians, people stabbed at Borough Market and now something at Vauxhall.

Seems like another muslim attack 'they were shouting allah' UK definitely has a Muslim problem its no wonder Trump anti muslim stance was so popular.

Clearly a sector of muslims hate the UK and its openly preached to be anti west why do they stay there?

This is a terrorist attack, not a Muslim one.

No No No you keep saying but these people are Muslim hence its a muslim terrorist attack. All these attacks are being based on Muslim ideology - sorry until action is taken directly against these 'allah' individuals nothing will change

Just like IRA attacks were Catholic terrorist attacks?

It is difficult in many cases to separate religion from overall culture. Irish nationalism is in many ways tied to Catholicism, but it is not causation.
While protestant Irish nationalist and IRA members are few, they did and do exist. I have yet to hear of a non Islamic member of ISIL or affiliated groups.
We are not talking about old school Palestinian PLO terrorist groups like the PFLP that were led by Christians.

We got of easy again. As terrible as these things are and very hard to prevent it will have the opposite effect of what they intend and bring people together.

Had both these recent attacks been against the U.S by the said British Muslims who would have lied to get in the country. Trump would remove the UK off the visa waiver program. Which would severely damage relations between our two countries and granting what in their eyes would be a victory for the name the terrorist group.

It's time to consider routinely arming British Police a-la the US. The only reason this was not more deadly is because it happens in a built up area which is well survived with AFOs. If this happened in, say, Bristol or my home town there would be more casualties before AFOs could respond.

I agree with Theresa May, we are far too tolerant of extremism.
