Woolwich soldier killed (was "Did cops just shoot 2 dead in woolwich?")

[5t3IIa]

oooh - like everyone and their dog doesn't know to say that to make it "terrorist"

If you're confused comparing this to 9/11 and Boston let us tell you that you don't know what you're talking about.

There are still, 30 years later, no litter bins (trash cans) on the streets of Central London because of IRA terrorism.

she's a prick, ignore her.

ah, ok.

 

[Roadkill]

No, but I am seriously worried about why it is so important to you for it to be terrorism.

Wtf is it if not terrorism you dunce?

Again, can we define terrorism please?

Since the video came out, then it's pretty clear it was a politically motivated attack. Some may view that as terrorism.

However, some may view terrorism as something in some way organised. This couple may have been acting entirely independently. If so, and under that definition, it's not terrorism.

There's no point arguing over whether it is or isn't unless there's at least a shared understanding of what the word means.

EDL marching outside Woolwich DLR. About 60. Throwing bottles. Police lining up. Many black ppl in neighbourhood running away across square

I'm mildly tempted to go down and see what's actually going on.

But I'm comfy on my sofa and still need to shower

 

[butchersapron]

If they can only get 60 out tonight (and there's every chance this is just ordinary bods rather than anyone else) then they have pretty much nothing.

 

[shagnasty]

I wonder if or how long it will be before they are questioned .Obviously top boys /girls to question them

Hardly a video, more a blend of smudges and the sound of a broken bottle.

 

[friedaweed]

What a bunch of clueless fucking dickwads.

 

[Part 2]

EDL are probably pissed off that the killer is wearing a Stone Island hat.

Yes, as bad as it is it just proves that they are dead.

Mad how this stuff is all over twitter.

Mum talked down Woolwich terrorists who told her: "We want to start a war in London tonight"

Exclusive: A cub scout leader confronted terrorists just seconds after they had beheaded a soldier asking them to hand over their weapons and warning them: "It is only you versus many people, you are going to lose."

I've never watched 10 O'Clock Live, curious to see how they deal with it.

Ah, because "events are still unfolding we're going to concentrate on the week's other news". Probably for the best, tbh...

Would be well up for assisting with preventing 2013's crystal night but got an early start.

Hey, it's been a long day!

 

[Dillinger4]

Could somebody quickly summarize the arrest? How much is known? Were they shot? Are they reported to be seriously injured?

I'm finally up to date with the thread having only got home from work an hour ago.

Having just seen the videos of the EDL scum outside Woolwich station I'm really struggling not to go down there. I feel like there needs to be a peaceful showing from the locals to make it clear that the EDL and their moronic racist ilk are not welcome. But I dont imagine there is any way of doing that

 

[Roadkill]

I assume the two men arrested are the suspects, both of whom were shot by police, but not fatally. No more details than that atm.

"Again please be patient we have 3000+ new page likes in a very short space of time, Our thought must be with the dead soldier and his family, We will never surrender to this SCUM"

The responses are great though

 

[Lord Camomile]

In a mild attempt to be serious, I honestly don't know what I'd do if I went down there. I kinda feel any 'action' would get lost in the chaos, and that's before I even work out what action I could take.

Definitely not 'proper urbanz'.
