Hahahahaha. You think a few check points and troops on the street were Britains A-Game? You think Afghanistan and Iraq were Britain and US's A-Game? That was just playing nice.

The true military option, The A-Game is there and we can end this fast whenever we don't want to play nice anymore.

Never fails to amaze me that when a tragedy is unfolding people here like nothing better than having a snipe at each other and trying to prove each other wrong

Think it's fairly obvious what this is. Don't get this " no speculation " stuff. I'm guessing this wasn't a catholic priest for instance.

Not exactly trapped in fairness. The are being deliberately kept there in line with security procedures.

Yeah, you might be right there ...

Try Canary Wharf, Bishopsgate, Deal, Omagh, Manchester, Birmingham, Brighton.

Seeing as "the Irish" have been responsible for more terrorist deaths in the UK alone than any other nationality's caused in the whole of the EU, we shouldn't be allowed off the island. :mad:

Yeah, right. I take it you don't know who Martin McGuinness is/was ... :rolleyes:

Actually, British terrorist invaders have murdered far more Irish than the other way around.

I see body armourised plain clothes police have yellow tape on their right shoulders to identify them.

It was fairly obvious what the incident in Quebec was as well. Turns out what was fairly obvious was wrong there. Hence the claim that we should wait till things become clearer. There were plenty of eye witness stories that turned put to be incorrect there as well.

Simple enough stuff here people. You can get your grandstanding in when and if it is confirmed. No need to rush to it.

Hoping the multiple location stuff is all precaution and nothing serious going on elsewhere. As Robert has said it is all senseless.

Strike two and you're done. Don't post in this thread again. Your 'hilarious' posts are far from it.

Someone mentioned earlier in the thread that in the UK it's more meant towards Pakistani, as opposed to Asian meaning in/around China and Japan for the US. I'm not British so I don't know and I don't necessarily believe it. Just what I read.

We don't know she was there. That's the point. Some randomer on the internet says something and we believe them? Remember all the crap that was online after the boston bombers? Unless I see something live with geolocation tagging I'm not going to believe anything that's floating around on twitter/facebook.

People suffering from catastrophic injuries. It does not sound good for them, but medical people can perform miracles in some cases.

As opposed to the incredible reliability of internet forum posters who were not there, who blindly say "don't speculate on their ethnicity that's racist!!!11" despite being told from somebody who was there that it was an asian man.
