We're too damn politically correct to go after the obvious perpetrators. We chase down old Swedish housekeepers in wheelchairs instead.

Soccer's what they play most. Midnight soccer....I know and I almost said that but they are too dumb to know its soccer, they and the rest of the world call it football, so I went with football.

Actually, in Norway they call soccer 'football.' At least they did when my mom grew up there. I guess it makes sense since you hit it with your foot. You are forgiven (smile).

only armed officers are those who have volunteered, been vetted and intensively trained for the purpose is likely to be be more effective and safer in the use of those arms than a force where every officer carries a gun as a matter of course So, they're all volunteers to begin with, you train them all to handle firearms, and you make them practice and requalify periodically.
Would be police who don't want to "handle firearms", should never be hired, and those already on the force should be relegated to desk jobs, or laid off it there aren't enough desk jobs.

Actually, in Norway they call soccer 'football.' Pretty much they call it that everywhere, aside from those places that play American style football, such as the US and Canada. Well in Latin America and Spain it's "Fútbol" :)

That is all within 3 weeks of their "first" terror attack...why have we seen less that that in 4 YEARS, here in the USA! There has got to be a lot more here than there!Because we had the luxury of being able to quietly arrest these guys. England had to go public because it's so well known that they have so many living right there among them. It's been well known for a long time they had radical preachers even going on BBC to announce their hatred.

that makes more sense than soccer. After all, it's played with your feet, right?
