Shooting on London Bridge, England

It was a display on the wall where the conference was being held. Dude didn't even blink; he just ripped it right off the wall and pursued the BG out the door.

He was a cook in that restaurant's kitchen. You would think he would grab a knife or two rather than the decoration from the wall......But he realized he is in LONDON!

His family criticized the Conservative government's plans to review Britain's judicial sentencing system in the aftermath of the attack.

"We know Jack would not want this terrible, isolated incident to be used as a pretext by the government for introducing even more draconian sentences on prisoners, or for detaining people in prison for longer than necessary," they wrote.


Merritt and Jones were fatally stabbed by Usman Khan, who was attending the event celebrating the five-year anniversary of Learning Together, police said. Three others, a man and two women, were also injured in the attack.

Police said Sunday that one of the injured has returned home, while the other two remain in stable condition in hospital.
Khan was shot dead by police after he left the building and went onto the north side of London Bridge, where a group of bystanders tackled him to the ground.

Just for the record, should I ever be in the uncomfortable situation Jack found himself in, I want VENGEANCE for my death. Make the effers pay with blood and soul.**

** This should not be construed as a call for more gun bans. That would only impair us from our own defense and/or taking vengeance.

Wish for anarchy, get anarchy. Don't bitch about your kid being dead.

The British Empire used to be bad ass. That tiny dot of an insignificant island essentially conquered the world and ruled most of it for centuries, to the degree that an entire continent speaks English as a first language, not to mention the billion or so people in India and Australia.

What happened?
