A CAR ploughed through a crowd of pedestrians in Islington, London, with police finding two knives at the scene near the Old Queen's Head pub.

At least three people have been taken to hospital following the incident which happened just before 11pm on Saturday outside the Old Queen’s Head pub on Essex Road – an area with many bars and restaurants.

Two men, who tried to run away from the scene, have been arrested on suspicion of GBH with intent and possession of points and blades after knives were found on the scene.

Metropolitan Police say they are not treating the incident as terror related.

Who cares if there were knives in the car? The car was the weapon.

“Metropolitan Police say they are not treating the incident as terror related.”

Of course they aren’t.

Must be very frustrating to the police because they know damned well the cause.

And the cure.

Were the perps names John and William or Mohammed and Achmed?

Interesting that Europe has so many of these attacks by men who “Acted alone,not related to terrorism”, but the next day they arrest 8-10 people in raids for the same attack.

I believe the attack a couple of days ago involved someone running folks down in a car, then exiting and using knives on more folks.

Of course, the UK declared that attack to not be “Islamic” but instead to have been of the harmless “Islamist” variety.

The police are not stupid. They know that if they say “we believe he was associated with a terrorist cell in Birmingham”, the guys in Birmingham will read the newspapers immediately take off.

Yes two attacks within days of each other with the same MO. Naw, nothing to see here folks, just lone wolves who are acting out, but not in the name of Islam because Islam is a religion of peace.

I keep waiting for a straw to break the camels back in the UK, France, Germany, or the Netherlands.

The EU has neutered the populace.

Deep in their souls, the population has totally surrendered. A few people, like Neil Farage, still stand tall, but the vast majority think men like Farage are dangerous and crazy.

They were the follow-up weapons, to be used by the Muzzies to butcher as many people as possible after the Muzzies got out of the vehicle.

Either arm the bobbies or arm the citizens but give someone the ability to defend themselves against these monsters.

Cut off the heads of these murdering scum, pike them on London Tower and leave them there to rot. Start a collection. Damn them to hell!

“Every time some bomb goes off, before it goes off,” Bill Maher said, “somebody yells ‘Allahu Akbar.! I never hear anybody go ‘Merry Christmas. This one’s for the flying nun!’”

He said there aren’t “Christian terrorist armies like ISIS” going around.

It adds to the offense and adds prison time under UK laws -

That assumes the accomplices are stupid enough to stick around when they know the perps were taken alive and are minutes away from turning over everything they know.
