I know it's a conspiracy as surely as I know unicorns don't exist. 99.9% of conspiracy theories are false. But even leaving that aside, as the other user referred to it's ludicrous to start shrieking about conspiracies before we actually really know anything

Bloody hell you mean we neednt have wasted all that time looking for a link to ISIS in all the recent attacks?

Yeh. I mean....it is not as if there is other evidence..

......
In a blog post at the far right Springbok Cyber Newsletter’s website, Mair is described as “one of the earliest subscribers and supporters of “S.A. Patriot.” On the magazine’s website, it’s described as being pro-free market capitalism and patriotism and anti-political correctness and “expansionist Islam.”.....


Sounds like he would fit in most of the Nationalists on here.


Sounds like a reasonable magazine to be honest. Once again, this is pretty sketchy evidence to base your assumptions of. I'm not denying he could be a member of Britain First or is a nationalist. I'm just saying it's very unclear at the minute.

Maybe the fact that they weren't there is what makes it unreliable.


I think Mr Graeme Howard would disagree

" Graeme Howard, 38, who lives in nearby Bond Street, told the Guardian he heard the man shout “Britain first” before the shooting and during the arrest.

“I heard the shot and I ran outside and saw some ladies from the cafe running out with towels,” he said. “There was loads of screaming and shouting and the police officers showed up.

“He was shouting ‘Britain first’ when he was doing it and being arrested. He was pinned down by two police officers and she was taken away in an ambulance.” "

You are confusing extreme ignorance with mental illness and ironically are being extremely ignorant


Don't be stupid. Hitler was NOT an extremely ignorant man. He was very wise. Far wiser than you and I no doubt.

So what about Corbyn? He's a nationalist and a socialist...


What is your definition of "nationalist" that Corbyn fits into?
It's a shame but why is an mp any more important than an ordinary member of the public?

That is a quote that it would be better to rely upon than someone who says they weren't there.

Now you have to deal with conflicting reports from witnesses.

I was thinking the very same, I don't see the same public outcry when your average joe gets shot. You certainly don't get the Arch Bishop tweeting about you.

How did he see both the attack and the arrest when he was arrested two miles away?
In times like this, it's important to remember not to make assumptions or rely on hearsay to form an opinion. Let's wait until we know more. This is a very sad day indeed, regardless of one's political views. I think we can all agree with that. :s-smilie:
3 people confirmed that the man did infact shout "Britain First"

The man was a White terrorist.
The leave campaign should not be suspending the campaign. Would she want the remain campaign to do the same. It's nothing to do with a leave campaign, just as all you leftist say Islamic attack a are nothing to do with Islam. Should people stop practicing Islam when there is a terror attack???

Lol. Yeh. You better be his lawyer.

I mean, if one person says they didn't hear it, that must mean the murderer didn't say it.

Both campaigns are suspended. It's nothing to do with politics. It's not a political move. It's out of respect. Perhaps it'd do you good to do the same.

So why have the referendum campaigning stopped?

Do you they do that every time someone is murdered?
