That post reminded me of the 'behead those who insult Islam' signs those 'Islam4UK' clowns were waving about a few years back.

Two sides of the same coin IMHO.

I'm pretty sure the lady had a fair idea of what had happened before she waded in. It's her choice and hers alone. If she thought she could help and wanted to then good on her I say.

Yes you make a good point about kids etc but I would rather my (non-existant) kids were told I died trying to save someone rather than i stood by and watched and did nothing.

I assessed. Decided that since all the station staff an off and locked themselves in the ticket office that something needed to be done.

After witnessing me headbutt a convicted GBH drugs dealer in a pub who started on my friend, Mr LPH says he let's me take care of myself. We should never allow the thugs to take over.

Awful, tragic and horrendous. Events like this only strengthen the position of c***s like the EDL and increase public support of the likes of UKIP while at the same time fostering unfounded and widespread hatred of the Muslim community as a whole. It's such a pity that the radicalisation and behavior of a few can cause such distrust and hatred of the many.

My thoughts are with the family of the poor chap. Fortunately the perpetrators will spend a long, long time rotting at Her Majesty's pleasure - and I don't mind that usage of my hard earned taxes one little bit.

Shoot to kill in that scenario, none of that preservation of life BS.
While "targets to your front, 10 rounds rapid, FIRE" seems completely reasonable to me... a load of 556 flying around a town center is not really a great idea.

Practical considerations aside, simply executing them in the street allows them their martyrdom. I'm quite glad they're still alive and personally I hope they get sent to a secure nuthouse and get to spend the rest of a long life bouncing off the walls. No pomp and ceremony, don't f*ck about with a trial.


I'm also very disappointed in the press giving their psychotic diatribes such air time... i.e exactly their aim. They set about their attack in such a way as to manipulate the press and succeeded.
