And even though he shouts praises to Allah, we are not allowed to say this was Islamic terror or Islamic extremism. Instead, officially, we have no idea why this dude went berserk in the manner in which he did.

Ain’t Third World immigration great?

PS

“with police powerless to act”

Why is that? No scope on any rifle nearby?

Just to follow up, the Italian Babe is safe. From the article:

When the police arrived, the attacker ran off through the Forum packed with tourists towards the centre of Rome, piazza Venezia, where he was disarmed and arrested.

Someone said they couldn't shoot because they might have hit someone ...

These idiots have had too much sensativity training and not enough contact with humans

If I got hit because a cop missed , or it was a through and through and into me ... honestly ... once I found out the circumstances ... I'd let it go for hospital care and a steak dinner.

That’s a handsome woman. Glad she is okay.

Let’s start running these people over with steamrollers. I am sick to death of it.

One policemen that intervened at the scene explained how officers were unable to shoot the attacker for fear of injured people in the crowd.

Following standard protocol, the NYPD would have shot at him, missed, and ...

The cops were waiting for a dog to shoot, before they could act to help the young woman.
