i see it being described as a terror attack, but the report (in OP) doesn't say who or what was behind it

It was a terror attack from an individual ?, why does it need a network of terrorists ?

The problem is that the word has been so overused that it's muddied the definition of actual terrorism. And it doesn't help that the mainstream media refers to white terrorists as lone wolves and brown crazy people as the real turrists.

The question that's keeping me up at night , however , is why do you keep putting a space before your punctuation ?,, Are you just winging it ;? Or is this a mobile thing ? :clownboat:

Everything anymore is called a terrorist attack weather it is or not, could be just some crazy looking for fame after he is dead

You're not the 1st to point it out, it's only before question and exclamation marks but it's just bad form :)

idk how I started doing it, probaly school, but some suggest it's a throwback / influence from French. It's fine to call it lazy though.

With the attack - It was an attack to incite fear, it seems. Much like how IRA (white dudes) attacks were labelled when they were doing their thing. All the police have said is that they're 'treating it as a terrorist attack' which is fair enough I spose. I can understand the criticism of the media, we should really know the motive before labeling it as such, but at the same time - with similiar attacks in Paris and London whilst also being a direct assault on parliament, you can understand why.

Their goal certainly seemed to be to incite terror. :(

^ lol was just about to post on that very story:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-39361079

you need to stop channelling the Trumps, Milo Cuckolopoulous

what Khan actually said:
Part and parcel of living in a great global city is you have to be prepared for these sorts of things, you have to be vigilant, you have to support the police doing an incredibly hard job, you have to support the security services.
looks like Trump Jr is a chip off the old dumb orange block
