London terror victim stabbed to death by the type of man he wanted to helpThe father of one of the two people killed in the London Bridge terror attack has warned British politicians against using the murder as a pretext for more 'draconian' prison sentences. So sad. 🙏 The headline is almost victim blaming... and also 'was' not 'has'. Obviously the father isn't thinking straight. If a person is violent and likely to kill, the only place is jail or deportation.

Obviously you cannot help an Islamist terrorist. Tacquiya. Never forget that word. Not taking notice of the masonic implication here but what's this person who some FakeNews claim as a heroic bystander doing?🤔They all seem to cut the end of this shoot
