Yes. What has money got to do with it? Everything, it seems to the new, modern idiot generation.

According to tonight’s BBC news, the man arrested is known to the police and was released from prison five years ago. Time to lock up anyone connected with terrorism permanently?

[237SJ]

Isn't what they tried to do at Guantanamo Bay?

[naomi24]

They should have carried on.

[jourdain2]

Yes, Naomi. I think that any connection with terrorism should be sufficient to reverse the usual 'innocent until proven guilty' principle.
The norm can appertain to other misdemeanours. We have to accept that we are in this for the long haul, I think, and this would be a basic premise which can be worked on as circumstances dictate.

But not the van driver ... is he the one who has been shot?

And there's this

From the article
This is a photograph of the house in Alcanar, Catalonia, which was destroyed by an explosion. Police are now investigating a link between the incident and today’s terror attack.

[naomi24]

Talbot, it's not clear which one has been shot. As far as I know one of them is still at large.

[-Talbot-]

Well there will be 3 days of mourning ... should keep us comforted until the next attack.

[naomi24]

Three days of mourning? That'll sort it!

[237SJ]

Three days of mouning might not mean anything to you but it might mean something to people who have been involved in this latest atrocity. Don't be so flippant.

[naomi24]

237SJ, where Islamic terrorism is concerned, don't ever - ever - accuse me of flippancy! Flippant I'm not!!

[237SJ]

I don't care what you thing about Islamic terrorism but flippancy about human life is not joke. Sorry

[naomi24]

Who's joking? Not me!

[237SJ]

No. But you do have a flippant attitude to terrorism. Still, that is not my problem so good luck to you :)

[naomi24]

237SJ, what on earth are you talking about? We lost people on 9/11, and 7/7 was the worst day of my life! You, on the other hand, appear to be a virtue signaller, and if you don't perceive that to be a problem, you ought to!

[anneasquith]

What actually is a virtue signaller?
