Sounds like alarmist nonsense to me. MI5 could be given permission to rape? Fuck off lmao. How about Amnesty International focus on the shit that's happening in the Middle East and China instead of making up fake scare stories...

Nothing to see here folks, just another Islamo-fascist attack on Western soil:

Quote:French President Emmanuel Macron has called the beheading of a teacher in a north-western suburb of Paris an "Islamist terrorist attack".

The victim is said to have shown controversial cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad to his pupils. The attacker was shot dead by police.

Mr Macron said the as yet unnamed teacher was murdered because he "taught freedom of expression".

"They won't win... We will act," the president said from the scene.

The attack occurred at about 17:00 local time (15:00 GMT) near a school. Anti-terror prosecutors are investigating.

The knife-wielding attacker was shot as officers tried to arrest him in the aftermath of the attack. Police have not released any personal details about him, although French media report he was an 18-year-old man of Chechen origin who was born in Moscow.

A trial is currently under way in Paris over a 2015 Islamist assault on the French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo, which was targeted for publishing the cartoons.

Three weeks ago, a man attacked and wounded two people outside the magazine's former offices.

But let us worry about fucking QAnon and the last thing Truml said on Twitter...

What happened in Paris was despicable and should be condemned. It is not a reason though to use it to deflect from Trump although that of course is a very Trump like deflection tactic so entirely predictable from you Slabhead. Have a nice relaxing weekend

What's worse, a politically incorrect quote from Trump or a fascist attack against a Westerner? Given that I see more frothing in the zeitgeist against Trump, I'm going to say it's the latter that seems to draw more outrage...

I’d dispute the use of the word fascist in connection with Islamist Terrorism and of course terrorism is different to being politically incorrect.

If being politically incorrect incites violence of any sort by your supporters surely though you would agree that it wrong. White Supremacists have been described by Trump as fine people until his advisors have finally got him to condemn them in the last week or so.

We should all be kinder to people with different political views and take the heat out of disagreements. My political views are much more to the right than the left into which you would seem to categorise me because I dislike Trump (and Boris Johnson). I can smell bullshit politicians though and am very well read from well before Trump was a presidential candidate about his business dealings and corrupt activities. I can assure you that if he was a democratic candidate (in fact he was a democrat and public supporter of Bill Clinton) I’d be furious about him becoming president.

Wrong, fascism is a perfectly legitimate term to describe the acts of Muslim terrorists. Read this by Christopher Hitchens: https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2007...scism.html

The rest of what you said is typical deflecting nonsense. We've just had a beheading in France, our neighbour and you want to talk about Trump, Clinton and Boris lmao.

^ I'm intelligent enough to be able to have conversations about multiple topics thank you very much. You do seem to be a very aggressive and angry individual. I worry for your health - have you tried anger management counselling?

Yes, but I ended up punching my counsellor in the face

Can't we just find a velodrome somewhere for cyclists to go round and round, next to the field for caravans maybe.
