Met police are erasing the third victim of the Golders Green stabbing

I am actually horrified. A third, Muslim, man was stabbed in the attack but he isn’t being mentioned anywhere. How is this allowed?!

Because he was wearing a padded jacket on a very warm day so it wouldn't be unreasonable to suspect he was concealing a suicide vest or explosives.

I think as someone earlier posted when you get school shooters in America who have also killed their family previous to the school attack, the school attack takes precedence in mention, where as the killing of family is an also event.

I hope you’re being sarcastic

How do you know that attacks on Jews aren’t also underreported?

It's quite obviously evidenced from this thread that he hasn't been erased though?

To be fair you should be the one keeping count if you're going to throw allegations around.

I suspect that you wouldn’t find it quite so teeny if you’d been attacked with it. It caused serious injuries to two men and injuries to another man. It can still maim and kill. Until that knife is away from him and until he is fully secured he is still very much a threat. And yes he had been tasered but he was still a threat. And tasers do not always work or deliver full power. There are videos of people being tasered multiple times and they still continue their attack so until he relinquished that knife and was handcuffed he remained a threat.

He was specifically known to Prevent, which is a counter terrorism (aka religious or political extremism) programme.

She doesn't. She appears to be minimising the reports as well.

No it isn’t.
The thread was started claiming the third victim had been ignored and trying to push some conspiracy theory.
Many posters have clearly shown the third victim was not ignored and that they believe the op is posting in bad faith.
I have no idea where the hell you are getting your ideas from.

Well I wouldn't be kicking him in the head!

What would you have done then?

Yes it’s this kind of out of place clothing that police are trained to spot, yet still the police subdued him without regard for their own safety

And how exactly would you get the knife from him? Ask him nicely?

When the BBC published the ("Biggest national emergency since covid") quote, their article immediately noted that the Home Secretary had since clarified that the current wave of antisemitic incidents did not infact qualify as a national security emergency

Of course the Home Secretary did - if they'd accepted it was any sort of emergency that would require them to do something about it, and clearly the only thing they intend to do is spout platitudes

Whatever I was trained to do as a police officer which would not be repeatedly kicking him in the head

You keep pushing this police brutality nonsense when the fact is its not, it's standard tactics for this type of situation and are well within the law.
You may not like those tactics but they work and are used by police and military world wide when they dont want to shoot an attacker or as in this case when the police officers are unarmed.
Had armed police officers been at the sceen he would have been shot in the head

What would you have done?

Murky Mo reminds me of the kind of 8 year old boy who describes how they would fly through the air and ninja drop an assaillant. Or a unfit beer-drinking footie spectator banging on about how he could have scored that goal...

I’m wondering if some people have been brainwashed to such an extent that their brains simply can’t process the rampant nature of antisemitism in this country so the grasp on to any explanation they can find on SM which keeps their world in tact, no matter how ludicrous or obvious the lies.

The government need to step in and wipe the lies off the internet, prosecute the liars and ensure the public are educated as to facts.

So if they are told that is a valid method in situations like this what would you do? How would you restrain a man who was holding a knife in his hand, where that hand was under his body, and when you had a reasonable suspicion that he had an explosive device under his coat? And that explosive device might kill you and others.

lol-you win the internet today. Best description ever

Thanks! 😆
