A lot of the extremists don't like the non-extremists much either. It's kinda like the "if you're not with us you're against us " mindset

I guess we'll find out more when details and facts are known.

The perp was arrested and didn't go up in a ball of flames so that makes me think it wasn't like the recent attacks.

Did I miss something in the linked article that indicated it was determined to be an intentional act? We have had drunks plow into crowds here; is that not possibly what happened in this incident?

No. They just referred to witnesses telling Sky News that it "appeared to be intentional".

The mayor of London has called such incidents normal, life in the big city.

Do bear in mind that the Mayor of London is a Muslim.

There were reports that the van involved originally had 3 people in it, but only one has been captured. Where did the other 2 go?

Yes, it is possible that it was an accident, but as Bobby Burns once said "Ay hae me doots". The identity and affiliations of the driver will be critical information, and we don't have it yet.

Yes and I'm not expecting this to be treated with the same carry on attitude attacks by Muslims have produced despite the mayor's previous take.

Per the article, the mayor's current take:

London Mayor Sadiq Khan decried the incident as a "horrific terrorist attack."

Murder or attempted murder but how is this terrorism? They sure were quick to call it that when it's a Caucasian that did it.
