mackem 27,627 Posted June 9, 2017 Report Share Posted June 9, 2017 a young paki about 21 just been stopped and arrested trying to get a bus with a large knife. That's not a large knife he has,its a machete on a bus,i saw the footage,he looks about 16 but could have done a lot of damage,no doubt he will say he likes whittling wood or peeling potatoes of similar and will get off with carrying it Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Shovel shy 4,033 Posted June 9, 2017 Report Share Posted June 9, 2017 So the fact of the matter is. A police man. A normal man with limited training'not army' responded to a terror situation. Helped save countless lives but forgot to engage handbrake and that's what people are arguing about. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
