"How come every time an act terrorism is carried out they tell it's someone with mental health issue's." Because there is a substantive difference in an attack, planned and carried out over distance by so-called Islamic State that could be monitored, intercepted and neutralised. ...and it is quite another thing that another disaffected madman has run up their flag and committed some act in their name. These have always occurred, whatever colour flag the madman hoists, from time immemorial. They are also a lot less easy to predict. | |||

"It was only a matter of time What was only a matter of time? The Met estimate that there were 9,000 stabbings in London last year..." Cos those are more gang related, this one is more serious it seems, the mayor came home from his holiday to hold a speech today. | |||

So 9k (mostly BME) stabbings are less important than 5 white ones? | |||

This sounds as if it was an unprovoked attack rather than gang warfare so that might be why the Mayor came back. Also, this happened on the day that they police chief announced putting more police (i believe armed but dont quote me) on the streets to help make people feel safer. | |||

"How come every time an act terrorism is carried out they tell it's someone with mental health issue's." but this wasnt an act of terrorism, that has been discounted. it is believed now to be the act of someone with mental health problems...the two have not been linked....quite the opposite | |||

"It was only a matter of time What was only a matter of time? The Met estimate that there were 9,000 stabbings in London last year..." A man is being stabbed every hour. And he's getting pretty fed up with it. | |||

"How come every time an act terrorism is carried out they tell it's someone with mental health issue's." Maybe people with mental health issues are easier to manipulate into carrying out these crimes | |||

"Sad fact is that people with certain mental illness conditions will see acts of terrorism and want to copy it, same as serial killers get fans and copy cat killings. To establish motive will require time, and the 24 hour live news world will make guesses until real motive is found." Correct. "After the break... more speculation." | |||

That's more in exasperation than anything else. I know from experience as I have worked with foreign MH clients - from the pathologist from Harare who went a bit funny in the head, to Ukrainian psychotics to Albanian men with severe learning difficulties. These people walk among us every day. We only take notice of them when kill in someone else's name. "You ain't no Muslim, bruv." I've seen it. | |||

"I dont think calling someone who has mental health issues ... A LOONY .... is nice .... lots of people suffer with mental health issues at some point in their lives .....this does not mean you will go out and kill someone ... " Indeed. Plus the huge erosion of mental health services mean a lot of people aren't getting the care and support they need. Many people who wouldn't be remotely dangerous with the right care are being left to fend for themselves. It's not surprising that some of them snap. It's really not their fault. | |||

I would guess that too but won't assume. No, to me the crime is equally bad. Colour was mentioned though because Miss_tress was saying when a white person does something violent like this, the default line is often mental health problems, whereas when a black person is the perpetrator, the first things mentioned are likely terrorism, gangs, drugs etc rather than mental ill health. It was a general comment, not specific to this case. | |||

I totally agree that how these things are handled is usually very, very racist. The automatic assumption that any violent act by a non-white person is terrorism/gang/criminal/drug related annoys the shit out of me. | |||

"How come every time an act terrorism is carried out they tell it's someone with mental health issue's. I think you'll find that's not true. Mental health problems is the default setting if the perpetrator is white. Often but we don't know the skin colour of the perpetrator in this case yet, do we? He's said to be of Somali origin so I'm guessing he's black Personally I don't see how his colour matters a killer is a killer, would the crime have been any less had he been white British?" . After the break...#more speculation | |||

" Sexual attacks across Europe are often attached to immigrants and Muslims rightly or wrongly are associated to grooming in the UK yet there is usually a non Arab involved in such incidents but propaganda won't allow these points to be highlighted. " . That's a bit racist! You do know most Muslims arent Arabs don't yer? | |||
