    CNN say there are bodies on the bridge and they won't show it.

    That's the number for Scotland Yard. You'd better ring them and tell them that you know exactly who did this. That is if you haven't already.

    Yeah let's distance Islam as far away as this fella as possible. Even if he is a Muslim...shur that's only a coincidence. Definitely won't have anything to do with that.

    Oh FFS. We have been through this before. People said this about the Quebec attack and we're flat out wrong. Nor was a Muslim behind the attack in Kansas so there are two recent terror attacks with no Muslim attackers. Fox even kept up news that Quebec was because of a Muslim well afterwards till the Canadian government complained.

    I have no idea if this was an Islamic terrorist but most importantly neither do you. At this point we should hope that as few people as possible were hurt and that any injured make a speedy recovery instead of using the incident for political grandstanding.

    Definitely looks like some fatalities on the bridge. R.I.P if so, caught up in senseless actions.

    Turn on the news ffs.
    I turned it on. A constant picture of police vehicles and reporters repeating things they've heard. Not really adding any information.

    Looks like a guy drove down the path at the bridge and hit 3-5 people, crashed into the railings, then ran inside with a knife, stabbed a police officer before being shot dead.

    No point in exaggerating numbers or reporting eyewitness accounts as fact.

    Why are you trying to hype up a body-count without any idea of what's going on? It's like you're reveling in it.

    One person has been shot - an attacker as Westminster and one person stabbed - that's all that's know for certain at this point. There appears to have been an incident on Westminster Bridge, but nothing concrete is known about it yet.

    Lads let's not assume it was Muslims unless it's proven. Doesn't do anyone any good.

    That's true but the fact that today is the anniversary of the Brussels attack doesn't help perception either

    There is nothing yet to suggest this is an islam related terrorist attack.
    Maybe you have super hearing and heard allahu akbar being shouted?

    That's what we should be hoping.

    You'd wonder with how most of these threads go though.

    You would think he would volunteer so assist the person seriously injured rather than record it on his phone.
