/// "There are more drug users in the UK than terrorists. " ///

"And there are more non drug users in the UK than drug users or even terrorists. "

So the chances of it being drug related or terrorists is very low, but the chances of it being an ordinary chap in the street is very likely then?

why did I raise islamism?

because of the last 100 terrorist deaths
the vast majority have been Daish

the rest as Heisenberg said - is social work....

// but the chances of it being an ordinary chap in the street is very likely then?//

the technical answer is conditional probability and Bayes theorem but AB is diffo not ready for THAT!

so let me comment - ordinary men dont shout and wave knives in the street EVEN in chorltie

Well we all know that the likes of you will blame the Daily Mail for everything, but first read their report, where have they whipped up the usual anti immigrant sentiment ?

[Peter Pedant]

who died ? no one.

so we are in the realm of social work ( er a/c to heisenberg - or Bohr - James Watson in fact)
