Sounds about right!

Where is the outcry and protesting? Not seen anything on CNN about supportive looting/arson/protests in the US about this.

Don't be silly, it was white people who died

"Dripping with sarcasm"

And there unfortunately Christel, you hit the nail on the head - it was 3 white guys.

They were also part of the LGBT community, which suggests that this could also a targeted attack against that part of the community (although that is purely my speculation based on what I have seen so far). Can you imagine what the news would be full of if this were a white guy going on a rampage killing 3 members of the LGBT community.

There should be outcry, and yet all we get is 'lessons will be learned' and 'we must all pull together and have a sing-song'.

This event at least made the tv news headlines, which is way more than the killing of Emily Jones Bolton managed.

There are often killings and attacks that happen in many towns and cities that you never hear about unless you get local news. If it happens in London or one of the other bigger places, it will make headline news for all the big news outlets.

Why a gang-related stabbing in London is more newsworthy than a young mum being bludgeoned to death with a hammer in Preston, only the media can know.

Maybe, but a 7 year old girl killed in a park on a Sunday afternoon, alledgedly having had her throat cut by a woman unknown to her in a seemingly random attack? Hardly a common occurence and if ever there was a case of the totally innocent entirely incapable of defending themselves this is most likely it.

People: PLEASE: there is NO SUCH THING as a random attack. Every victim is chosen in some way or another.

This latest attrocity by a fake christian, fake asylum seeker terrorist who is known to the "Security Services" was described as "random". No it was NOT. In this case he went to a PARK where people are at their most relaxed and set about stabbing people in a way NOT typical of your average elleged mental case - the usual excuse when these people go mental.

I don't disagree with you. However the media doesn't give a flying foof unless it occurs in one of the biggest cities. Even all the gun crime won't really get a National mention unless it's certain groups killed in London, and then the victims were always growing to be Doctor Lawyers and now they can't because of senseless violence.
