Attack At Westminster

Post by Graham Kennedy »

Breaking news the last hour or two...

Appears that a man used a car to run down 8-12 people on Westminster bridge, then ran up to Westminster palace and confronted two cops. He stabbed one, and was subsequently shot.

News still rolling in.

Damned soulless monster. I hope none of our U.K. friends here have suffered because of this.

Four dead so far. One was the cop who was stabbed, another the attacker who stabbed him.

Yet another 'incident' around the globe. As much as it sounds naive to ask "why can't we all just get along," that's also perhaps the most fundamental of pertinent political questions.
"If you can't take a little bloody nose, maybe you ought to go back home and crawl under your bed. It's not safe out here. It's wonderous, with treasures to satiate desires both subtle and gross... but it's not for the timid." Q, Q Who

I am glad that parliament sat in session today and London continued on as much normal today.
Also big props to Tobias Ellwood. One of my region's MPs, ran to the stricken officer and attempted to save him even if he didn't prevail.

RIP to those who aren't going home.
