Looks like it might be happening again. 
Details are scarce, but reports of a van running over pedestrians.  :'(

In some respects I hope it's a freak accident (heart attack, piss head, etc) otherwise it's a little concerning that the same attack as before has happened.  :-\

Either way, thoughts and condolences to all involved.

Unfortunately it would seem not. Various reports of gunfire and stabbings.

Texted my daughter in London as soon as news started coming through. She was safely at home thankfully.
Latest is 6 innocent people dead. 3 worthless lumps of scum shot dead by police within 8 minutes of incident being reported.

Endless "news" of the incident today on UK tv. More oxygen for terrorists, more votes for tories.

We shouldn't need to live with events like this happening :'( but at least the police are starting to take definitive action.

Not saying the American approach is the best, but getting shot dead on sight is a reasonable deterrent against committing such reprehensible acts.

It appears the Police did an excellent job, but its after the event. We need to take measures (probably quite drastic) to stop it from happening. The current preventative measures clearly aren't working.

That's what they want anyway, martyrdom, so shooting them dead does the job for them

However, the huge extra plod/army deployed after the last one didn't prevent it. They keep saying they were know to intelligence, so why didn't they do something then?

There are no measures that will work.
The ones that have an obvious effect are worse than the problem.


These events are horrible, but publicly murdering a couple of dozen people doesn't actually change anything for the vast majority of the population unless we allow it.
