Suspected suicide bomber shot at Stockwell station.

[cori]

Have just heard an unconfirmed report on the radio. Anyone else?

Really Compo? I don' t think it does really.
Actually I only posted it because I though that poor old Springchicken was about to get attacked.
So if you were in Surrey and Abigail Witchall's killer hadn't been caught, and you saw a twitchy looking young man with multiply pierced ears and emerging from a blue car, would you still push your buggy down that lane?

I'd get off the bus, for sure

caligula - yes it does really.

And I only said I'd quietly get off the bus! I didn't say I'd stab him in the heart! The only person who would suffer (from inconvenience) would be ME.

some of you obviously dont use public transport. If every time someone 'dodgy' looking got on, you got off you would get nowhere

yoiu have people telling you your son is the chosen one, read him the bible before bed and get him to do the lords prayer every morning. he has that look of the 'chosen one'

I can't really argue a point with someone who only posted it because 'Actually I only posted it because I though that poor old Springchicken was about to get attacked.'

Aloha I agree with you. I am sorry you have come in for all this flak.

agree with Fio

I got off the tube cos I was in a carriage with a bunch of gross BNP supporters spouting racist crap. What does that make me a racist against racists.

Oh don't be so silly. Of course I believe it, but I initially wanted to support another poster who I suspected was about to get attacked. What's so dreadful about that?

I think anyone who really genuinely thinks aloha is racist needs their head examined.

oh for goodness sake, aloha is also a redoubtable debater of mn and doesn't need all you lot rushing to her defence!!!

fwiw, i don't believe that aloha is remotely racist. that doesn't stop me from being a bit sad that she is going to start getting off buses etc.

I just can't believe that you would not use public transport because an asian with a rucksack uses it. How can you let extremists win?

Windermere, I would do exactly the same as you.
I don't know what that makes me, exactly. I'm sure someone will be along to tell me soon though.

I agree with fio too. But still don't see why Aloha (or anyone else) is supposedly a racist for making the decision she has. Excessively jumpy, perhaps, but surely that's her lookout?

oh my God - I never accused Aloha of racism so why are you all jumping to her defence?

So you honestly think it's unbelievable that women avoid single men when they're on their own at night Compo? You're obviously very brave. There's no way I'd get into a carriage on my own with only another man in it if I could help it.

its nice to have a bit of support though soph, and I know that more than most

er, comp, its not all about you love, there are other posters on this thread who have talked about racism

OK, I'm being thick, but how do the extremists win if Aloha rearranges her journey?

okay we're on to a completely different issue here. I don't use the tube often at night but if I got on and a single man was in my carriage then yes I would be a bit wary. But I wouldn't get off automatically.
