    This is disgraceful.

    At 1 min 51 seconds, a professional journalist refers to the supermarket as "Tescos".

    Oh, and the attack carried out was also bad.

    nutter gets locked up, good.

    something in there about his mams partner being an ethnic minority.

    maybe he came home early one day and saw her loosening someones turban.

    Think he's an absolute nutter using white supremacy as an outlet for his violence. He admires jihadi john which isn't very neoNazi at all.

    Not the first time this has happened, though this seems to be mental illness at work as opposed to the usual dumb stupidity.

    Mental illness meets extremism. Never a good outcome

    Try shoplifting from one of their shops in London and see how pacifist they get.

    In seriousness though, the Sikhs have a long warrior tradition (Rajaputs) and were used prominently across the British Empire on account of them generally being hard bastards. There has been serious political violence in India involving Sikh separatists as well.

    There's a thin line between extremist and nutjob. I don't know if he crossed it. I didn't see any evidence of mental illness. He looked like someone who had made his mind up to do something to validate his beliefs and did it.

    I have to agree with the family of the victim. If it were reversed he would have been called a terrorist. The only reason he's not is because he's white.

    Fact. The killer of Lee Rigby, Michael Adobelajo, was a well known nutcase; as in he used to walk around Greenwich DLR station talking to himself. However his actions were designated a form of domestic terrorism and were the source of major social and political debate.

    I haven't once heard the term domestic terrorist used about this attempted murder, despite it being a politically motivated attack by a member of a neo-Nazi hate group that preaches violence against non whites.

    Agenda has to be set...

    Muslim = Terrorist

    White person = Mentally deranged.

    There are any number of labels you could put on this guy...but ultimately he is dangerous and mentally unstable.
    Best off that society and he are separated by doors and iron bars.
