I don't understand how he could have gotten a gun. Britain has very strong gun control laws.

This had to have been engineered by someone. Someone must have recruited him and coached him and given him a “homemade” gun. The timing of this is too convenient.

There’s been plenty of time to coach him. Being that the government wants to remain EU.

This idiot comes across as somebody from central casting. He is a gift to the stay in EU side or a demented fool activated by those who want to affect the election.

Since Trump supports Brexit, I wouldn’t be surprised if they blamed the killing on him.

The left CONSTANTLY talks about how we need to moderate our language but they never moderate their actions. Its not surprising that people who love their country are fed up with TRAITORS actively seeking to destroy it. Its called blowback and its a wonder it doesnt happen more often.

Many reports make sure to emphasize that he got the plans for the gun from an American right-wing website.

“I don’t understand how he could have gotten a gun. Britain has very strong gun control laws.”

If no one else said it, he may well have had a home-made gun, articles are on that on the web.

It is very even right now I think in public opinion per those wanting to remain and those wanting to leave and was before this incident.

“He also killed Brexit.”

According to a headline on Drudge, it had the opposite effect the bankers wanted. The opposition to staying in the EU increased.

I understand the guy was bipolar, heavily medicated, or some such. A perfect man for a set-up.

Yes, the cleverly started setting him up a decade ago when he ordered the plans for the gun himself. Fiendishly clever.

I wouldn't be surprised if Britain had it's own "Finder's" program, similar to the CIA's.
