Just spotted this now. Police operation ongoing. 20+ injured.

Dang... Hope no one is seriously hurt.

I really hope this isn't the beginning of a spree of attacks using everyday items. You can cause a lot of damage with an axe, and being on a train means help is hard to find.

Axe seems more general mad man than Islamic crazy.
Sounds pretty horrendous! :/

This is a local news report, I like how it mentions the replacement bus service is in place.

Was it a mentally unstable white man, or a pesky muslim terrorist..... I mean it isn't like there has ever been any white terrorists, is it?

The rest of Europe seems less safe everyday.

It's not axes that kill people ...it's people with axes that kill people...

Lol, Englishman living here

But people here really do with serious faces say that gun control should mean everyone be allowed to carry because that would solve the problem.

So you're pretending that it's not statistically more likely to be a Muslim fanatic nowadays?

It would be nice to be proved wrong for a change

Somewhat related... I was watching Jim Jefferies latest comedy show on Netflix last night - He's a comedian famous for giving his opinion on gun control in the US - And he said he probably gets about 40 pieces of hate mail on a normal day, but on the day of the Paris Bataclan attacks he received an enormous amount of email from US pro-gun advocates basically saying "If they all had guns, they'd have been able to protect themselves."... Unbelievable :rolleyes:

Muslim - 10 page thread
Undetermined - thread will disappear by tomorrow
