old man Posted July 27 Report Share Posted July 27 On 25/07/2024 at 10:37, Mice! said: I heard on the news yesterday that a soldier had been stabbed and thought how has this happened again? Soldiers are taught to defend themselves unlike a lot of Joe public. Then you find out this guy has travelled on a moped till he's found a soldier in uniform and attacked him, that's a targeted attack all day long, he's clearly gone out with the intention of attacking a soldier not just anybody. The usual suspects saying it could have been this or that should be ashamed of themselves, there's simply no defending attacks like these, and the authorities trying to cover it up saying mental health aren't fooling anyone. If things keep going like this how long before there's a push for more armed police on our streets? Mm, any on the streets near here would be a bonus. Who knows where they are diverted to?

Raja Clavata Posted August 1 Report Share Posted August 1 That’s good, hoping he makes a full recovery. Scant details on the perp. His surname is the same as an ethnic group from Nigeria who originate from Benin. Their religious demographic is majority Christian then traditional African and around 1% Muslim. By unrelated coincidence Esan in Yoruba translates to karma / revenge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be interesting if we are shown later how it only takes 1% to give rise to an entirely disproportionate amount of criminal behaviour / activity. We’ll see in due course - me thinks the Home Secretary has been dishing out D notices left right and centre right now to stop the whole place going up in flames.

I thought D notices are for matters of national security (external threats) but you’d know better than me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D notices are handed out for many things like naming people and newspaper editors do as they are told. From Auntie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
