What will Starmer do if Huntingdon...

[Whyandwhenandwho]

Stabbing turns out to be terror related or in a similar vein to incident to recent incidents that were related to immigration ? We don't know the identities yet of the perpetrators. But the fact the Home Secretary is brought in to comment in tabloids and the discussion on LK on BBC today makes me worried its a possibility. The poor people on the train - I cannot even imagine .. ..Starmer needs to tackle knife crime as its rife. What is the answer ? When is there a tipping point ? I don't know but something must be done - I've never paid as much attention other than feeling so terribly sorry for any victims and families. Now I'm starting to get angry when I see anything like this

Yes it is staggering the amount of 'they're British! eat your words' comments that we are seeing.

We don't know their motivation, I presume they'll be going no comment so until searches of their homes and social media are done we've no jdea what their ideology is.

Yes they do. They feeding us a load of fibs

They caused terror on that train therefore it’s an act of terror.

From one eye witness report I've watched, other passengers were injured helping those who were stabbed first. It's not hard to see how innocents could get caught up in it.

There are problems amongst some groups of rich white men also

Like I said before - one thing is saying crap like this, another is doing stuff.

No decent answer, just an ad hominem. If you don't agree, give me reasons.

I wouldn’t spread your conclusion, it could be misinformation.

What the heck do some Muslim men's misogyny have to do with a massive stabbing by two Black British men in their 30s?

The truth will come out eventually. It always does.

You could say that of any situation where someone pulls a knife. Would it still be a terror attack if they were two white men?

Maybe they were both just violent twats?

TBF, I'm not speculating on the motives of the perpetrators but you only need a basic understanding of history to know that being black does not exclude one from being Muslim.

Many African nations are Islamic.

And have you heard of the Nation of Islam? The Islamic and Black Nationalist movement that had it's genesis in the US a hundred years ago?

Have you heard of Malcolm X?

Because I just can’t fathom what the motive would be. Unless it was a psychotic episode, but other posters have said the fact there were two people suggests that is less likely. It just doesn’t make sense.

I think people have to wake up to culture and stop blaming everything on the melanin in your skin, not all cultures are the same. This ridiculous belief that men from cultures where women and gay people are of no value do not leave their views at the border and suddenly believe in equal rights.

Two black men in their 30s can be Muslim. Not saying they are but the faith is not limited to Asians.

How does anyone know their religion, do you?

Exactly

How is an eye witness account of someone who was on the train that's been broadcast on every TV station misinformation?

No need to be bitchy...its a genuine concern

Yep.

Where are all these gangs attacking complete strangers en masse for no reason? Criminal gangs attack rival members, and sometimes innocent people are caught up.

They don't commit mass stabbings on a train car of complete strangers.

Because those people are fucking awful racists who NEED the facts to fit their prejudice.

But current speculation is not far off the truth I am sure and never usually is - people can have opinions . If proven wrong- then that's a relief. There us heightened fear everywhere due to recent events and that doesn't help people sit back and wait before they wonder

deliberately not releasing names so the press can’t find out who they are and dig into their backgrounds, social media etc. Echoes of Southport.

Its horrible but I can imagine how these men could have been pissed/ drugged up and maybe there was an argument etc. Who knows. Remember that nutter who killed two sisters in a park because he made a "deal with a demon"?
