      Here is the thing: When something like this happens everyone gets upset and in the resulting chaos a great deal of evil can happen. In order to remove emotion from the equation I think it is important that we prepare for these sorts of attacks in advance by making a list of tiered responses calibrated to the size of the attack. If we could all agree on the list then there would be no reason to argue about any of this in the future. Now then, in the interest of extending an olive branch to my liberal friends I've made a rough draft based upon their track record. I'm willing to adopt this list as is or we can modify it. Thanks.

      Body Count Response
      --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      1-10................No response, this is the cost of doing business.
      11-50...............Have the news media publically opine about what could motivate someone to do this sort of thing.
      51-100..............Post YouTube videos about illegal Jewish settlements.
      101-250.............Seek more funding for NPR, feature more stories about 'touching oneself'.
      251-500.............Issue a press release that shames people who call the enemy 'terrorists'
      501-1000............Beg the U.N. to put together a commission to discuss the issue.
      1001-5000...........Get all golly-gee exited about building a new tower where the old ones stood.
      5001-10000..........Acquire broad powers of surveillance but then use it to keep tabs on the opposition party.




      There, now that we have the plan all laid out there is no reason to get upset.
      Actually YOU put Trump in the White House. He wouldn't have gotten 1% of the vote if it wasn't for the widespread spiritual and cultural devastation caused by progressive policies. There's no "this country" left with your immigration policies, your "allies" are worthless and even more suicidal than you are and democracy is a sick joke that I hope nobody ever thinks about repeating when the current order collapses. - Darth_Executor striking a conciliatory note in Civics 101

        There is plenty to be upset about!!!! the word is spelled "excited" not "exited" - sheesh, if you can't even spell a simple word like "excited" correctly, why should we accept your arbitrary response scale? I reject it and will begin my protest with pitchforks and torches.

          That's the liberal list, Sparky, had I spelled everything correctly it wouldn't have appeared authentic.

              I love this line: Liberals convince themselves multiculturalism works because we all die together.

                Khalid Masood was the attacker. But let's not rush to judgement!

                    Khalid Masood - that sounds Swedish - doesn't it?

                      I will bet that he is indeed a radical muslim and it will come out, but it won't be front page news.

                          To be fair, the Londoners were walking around in front of the Parliament building like they owned the place.

                            Islam established that pattern when Mohammad started the religion by chopping off the heads of anyone who did not join it.

                                According to the Telegraph, "Masood’s “violent extremism” had caused security services sufficient alarm to put him under investigation" but was "not the subject of any current investigations." As for his name, he was born Adrian Elms in Dartford, Kent.
