The last two paragraphs suggest that graduates of Britain's "elite" universities are as lacking in common sense as ours. Muslim terrorists are the "underdog".

Just some people doing something.

I'm rather sure Jack would not agree.

I’d rather that the people were allowed to be armed so that they wouldn’t have to be so heroic as to tackle a knife wielder rather than shoot him.

On Saturday, the Parole Board, which carries out risk assessments on prisoners to determine whether they can be safely released, said in a statement that it had not reviewed his case. Mr. Khan appeared to have been released automatically, “on license” — meaning under certain conditions — “without ever being referred to the board,” it said.

Uhhhhh, ohhhhkayyy. So, who did the deciding in this case?

And what "certain conditions" must be met in order for an inmate to be release "on license"?

Forgive me if I don't hold my breath waiting for an answer.

Or for a "reporter" to even ask the question.

“ My son, Jack, who was killed in this attack, would not wish his death to be used as the pretext for more draconian sentences or for detaining people unnecessarily,”

Your son was an idiot.

A simmering terrorism threat? You betcha! And it will only get worse over time. Here’s an article talking about how the children of UK Muslims are - in general - MORE radical than their parents.

So those Britishers who are banking on assimilation to solve this problem, fuhgeddaboudit.

“The last two paragraphs suggest that graduates of Britain’s “elite” universities are as lacking in common sense as ours. Muslim terrorists are the “underdog”.”

I would have thought that Oxbridge (Oxford & Cambridge) would have successfully shielded their (formerly) superb humanities groups against the academically ludicrous claims of the left. El-wrongo.

So, as with our formerly elite universities, if it ain’t STEM, feggedabowdit.

The assault threw into stark relief the risks in attempting to rehabilitate those convicted or suspected of terrorism.

This is not a terrorists or criminal driven problem.

It is a religious driven motivation problem by Muslims who want to do what Allah wants done; and they follow he example of Allah's messenger Muhammad.

When you try to rehabilitate a Muslim you are asking them to turn their back on God (Allah)and become like us Allah hated Infidels.
It will not work in most cases because doing what God wants done is a better motivator. - Tom

The “underdog” killed your son.

I wonder if there are stats regarding the percentage of moslems living in Britain.There are many Indians,Pakistanis and Bangladeshis living there.

But a man who said he was Mr. Merritt’s father, David, posted the news on Twitter before deleting it

Your son gets murdered and your first instinct is to jump on Twitter and virtue signal?

As much as it sucks that Jack lost his life to a known wolf.......maybe Britain is better off that David's genes are being cleaned from the pool.

It seems WWI and WWII killed off most of the bloodlines with any semblance of testicular fortitude and common sense.
