Sending thoughts and prayers out to those affected in London Sad
Does anyone know if it was terror related?

Cozie of course Dump will make it about him, or use it to his advantage, or ignore it if he doesn't GAF. Because he's Dump. Don't expect heartfelt condolences. Angry

Ginger, his sons are the Uday and Qusay of the Dump family. They are the same as their father, gold-plated (fake gold of course) trash. Evil, self-serving. They get off on shooting lions and leopards for fun. Sorry to say but Ivanka is not far behind them. Tiffany might be ok, idk. I'll leave poor Barron alone because he's just a kid.

Louise mensch is tweeting about "obstruction of justice" and how that is something that trump has committed, which can be a reason to impeach him.

Glad to hear you are safe and sound, Pomegranate.

CaveMum · 22/03/2017 19:36

I think Trump might keep reasonably quiet (for him) on today's attack. Channel 4 News are reporting that the attacker is a known British extremist of Jamaican descent. Not an "Arab" and not an immigrant.

CaveMum · 22/03/2017 19:37

Scrap that. Channel 4 are now backtracking that statement and saying they might be wrong on the identity of the attacker.

TrueBlueDem · 22/03/2017 19:44

I'm watching MSNBC and they're saying it is terror related? Is this what you are hearing in the UK?

CaveMum · 22/03/2017 19:52

Whilst it's not been confirmed as a terrorist attack per se (i.e. No confirmed motive or affiliation of the attacker) the police are saying it is being treated as a terrorist incident.

TrueBlueDem · 22/03/2017 19:54

Ok, thank you for clearing it up Cave. I don't always trust the msm here because they tend to jump to conclusions.

AcrossthePond55 · 22/03/2017 19:58

I note that our 'Fearless Leader' (for those of you familiar with Rocky and Bullwinkle) apparently hasn't made a statement of condolence regarding the Westminster attack, but managed to blurt out 'big news, just happened' on the way to some meeting. He really is a fucking bellend, isn't he?

I read the name of the supposed attacker on a media website. A 'known terror preacher'? I'm not linking or naming because I don't know how reputable the source is.

I've been in the dark as DS and I agreed 'no news, no Trump' whilst we were gone. I did hear on our local news today that the DonTcare bill will most likely not make it out of the House of Reps unless there are more changes and that if it does, it will fail in the Senate. Good news!

DH gave me a 'brief' on Comey's testimony. Sounds as if he's trying to be truthful without 'saying too much'. DH said he couldn't get a 'read' on where Comey stood on the Trump/Russia connection. I'm just hoping he's being cagey and that there's a good dossier being prepared. I'm ready for the boom to be lowered!!!

How is it Obama was able to travel without incident, and so much cheaper for the tax payers, than Dump?

CaveMum · 22/03/2017 20:08

Across the name of the alleged attacker that is circulating is incorrect. According to BBC the man originally named by other news sources is actually currently in prison.

Destinysdaughter · 22/03/2017 20:10

One of the first few things I thought, after hearing about the dreadful attack in London, was that Trump's going to make political capital out of this and use it to help justify his travel ban on Muslims. Bastard. And after all the fake attacks they've quoted, they've now got a real one to justify their draconian policies...

TrueBlueDem · 22/03/2017 20:10

Cave eek, glad they sorted that out (naming wrong guy)!! That happened here in the US after the Boston bombings, some poor guy was mistaken on the security cameras as one of the bombers.

TrueBlueDem · 22/03/2017 20:12

I pray that the attacker does not turn out to be Muslim. I'm sure Muslim families in the UK (and the US and rest of Europe for that matter!) are praying for the same thing. Either way, lives have been tragically lost, but we don't need more ammunition for those who want to commit hate crimes.
