I get that people could become brainwashed enough to do crazy shit like this when their quality of life is terrible, but it's always amazing to me that people can stay this twisted while living in a nation with a pretty high level of comfort.

Our thoughts are with you, British people.

Some of my friends were in a pub right next to London Bridge. Haven't heard from them yet, I'm really worried.

I know what you feel. It will turn out alright for your friends! If you need to talk hit me up with a pm tho.

Okay - they're all okay! Turns out, half of them left and crossed over London Bridge a few minutes before it happened, and the other half went on to the next pub, while a knife attack happened at the pub they'd all just left. Talk about close calls!
Scary stuff indeed.

Are you actually arguing that it is acceptable to come into a thread this sensitive in nature and post a politically volatile personal attack on an admin as the only content of your post, which also happens to be at the start of the thread?
Have some decency guys, focus on healthy relevant discussion and try to act respectfully towards people who may be impacted by these events.

Really wish concerned people would stop ringing me in the middle of the night to make sure I am fine.

In fairness he was only attacking my extremely British values. Apparently Testie is so upset about terrorists lashing out against British values and killing British people in an attempt to scare us into changing our values that he's started to agree with the terrorists. What a world.

Don't fall for the same traps America did post 9/11. We've given up so many freedoms it's astonishing and people clamor to give up more and more every day. Oddly enough its usually the right wing "muh freedoms" folks that are so eager to toss away more freedoms for some security theater.
Seems like Testie can't go more than a week or two without getting himself suspended again. Always over the exact same stuff.
