Knifeman with bomb vest shot dead on London Bridge
at around 2pm today. Shot dead on the ground.

Good.

Watch members of the public tackling this POS while the police wait for the golden second and blow this f*cker away.

Any reason why they keep coming back to London Bridge aside from simple symbolism and/or target rich environment?

Not even the slightest clue, sorry.

I'm not even going to try and second-guess what goes on in the mind a some deranged would-be martyr for the cause.

Wearing a vest that turned out to be fake.
Presumably they shot him to prevent him detonating it.

I can't make this video show up, but that looked a lot like a civilian grappling with the "alleged perpetrator", right up until armed police pulled him off and ended the hostile activity...

Hope he was yelling "Fuck You -I am Millwall" the whole time.

From the initial reports, several citizens decided today was not the day, and jumped in. Good for them. VADM Nelson would be proud. ("England expects that every man will do his duty.")

Sadly Fox News just reporting two of the stabbing victims in the London attack have died...plus another stabbing in The Hague in the Netherlands at a shopping district Frown

Edit...I’m getting effin tired of the term “lone wolf”...these murderers follow a belief that calls for this shit Mad...

Carry 24/7 and avoid “gun free zones” if possible!

Jones, do you mean when the powers that be figure out erasing poop stains that need erased (and the Lefttards lose their mind over it), or do you mean when the would be jihadis over here figure out fake bomb vests?

Typically police will look at a the perpetrators hands to ensure they are not holding something “armed”.

In this instance the police needed to look at the perpetrators hands to ensure that he was not holding something “deadman’s switch”.

Life is getting complicated.
Danger can exist both with and without something in the perpetrators hands.
Had he been holding a deadman’s switch many others could have been killed and injured when he was shot.

You want to explain this odd statement? Just what is that supposed to mean?

The NBC nightly news tried to insinuate that this was President Trump's fault because he said bad things about the ISIS thug that special forces killed.

These evil people have no shame and are every bit as bad as terrorists.

Vests.

When they clack off a vest in a crowded Walmart at six o'clock last night. At someone's crowded piano recital.

Explosives are cheap, readily available, and easy to make. Once this happens a few times, the call for the authorities to "do something" will be so great that our way of life as we know it will be forever altered. It will affect the First, Second, Fourth and probably Fifth Amendment by the time they get done with it.

The amount of panic that fake vests will provide at that point will leave a horrific impact on free society. It'll be gun control on steroids. Society as we know it will end for a security state. We as a society are not willing to take up an Israeli model to attempt to stop this. England has more experience than we do in it, and they killed the guy without trying to bring in EOD. Now, they can't interrogate him. While I'll take this as a happy ending, "Lone Wolf" isn't always as isolated as what you'd think. The guy probably had some usable intel.

I'm frankly surprised that it hasn't happened yet. Explosives are a much greater fear of mine than active shooters will ever be. Local Law Enforcement just isn't trained to handle this and the societal turmoil it will cause will mark generations to come. For whatever reason, active shooters are more than willing to die, but they just haven't figured out the explosives end of it yet.

I wasn't there and am just guessing but the fake vest served it's purpose.

Luckily, this known terrorist asshole was no match for some righteous dudes with a 5’ narwhal tusk and fire extinguishers...




A guy who was with us at Fishmongers Hall took a 5’ narwhale tusk from the wall and went out to confront the attacker. You can see him standing over the man (with what looks like a white pole) in the video. We were trying to help victims inside but that man’s a hero #LondonBridge

Sources have told Sky News the suspect in the London Bridge attack was a recently-released terrorist prisoner believed to have been wearing a tag.

They've resorted to Narwhal tusks for defense? That guy is awesome, using the jedi weapon of the sea.
Sad that it's come to that.

As this is the USA, if terrorists start using suicide vests, it would drive many states to make it easier to obtain a carry permit so they can ventilate some of the terrorists. However, New Yorkistan, New Jersistan, and Kalifornia would likely double down on stupidity.

Hopefully RBG will be gone soon, and the Supreme Court will start giving more citizens their Second Amendment rights back.
