Welp. Here we go again.

How did it start?
At 10.08pm police responded to a call about a white van ramming into five or six people on London Bridge.

The van reportedly veered off the road and drove into people on the pavement.

Paramedics were on the scene six minutes later, the London Ambulance Service said.

Police are piecing together eyewitness accounts, and believe that three men got out of the van and started attacking people with knives.


An eyewitness, Eric, told the BBC that he heard shouts of "this is for Allah".

John Stokes, a bus tour guide, said that he and the driver counted eight people lying on the road.

The three men then ran down to Borough Market.

What happened in Borough Market?
The three men appear to have stabbed people at random in the market.

They rampaged through the area, entering the many pubs and restaurants to stab anyone in sight.

Crowds in the bars fought back - hurling pint glasses, bottles and chairs at the attackers.

One woman was stabbed repeatedly, according to a man named Gerard, who was trying to drive the attacker away by hurling chairs at him.

A security guard who works across multiple bars and pubs in Borough Market told the BBC he saw the attackers after receiving a call from a colleague in another bar who said people had been stabbed.

The security guard described people running away screaming from three men. He and his colleagues tried to throw chairs at the attackers, who were going in and out of different bars.

Within eight minutes police were on the scene and opened fire, killing the three attackers.

Photos on social media showed two of the men on the ground. One of them, in front of the Wheatsheaf pub, had what appeared to be canisters strapped to his abdomen.


Police later said that the canisters were fake.

Another eyewitnesses said she saw police and two robots - she speculated that the robots could be there to disarm the canisters.

Well it's 530 A. M. over there right now so maybe we won't hear from them just yet.

What a(nother) mess.

Well, I live and work in Canada these days, so I'm not affected. But I know Borough Market really well tho as an ex girlfriend used to live right by the market itself. It's a brilliant area and it'll have been a great atmosphere last night. I've drunk in most of the pubs described in the reports (not the Wheatsheaf tho, I don't think). Pretty fucking horrible to see it all in this context.

I'm moving back to Britain for work next month. I've been in Canada three years and loving it. Funnily enough, one of the first things that made me homesick and really miss Britain was the Westminster attack, sitting half a world away and seeing places I knew so well after such a senseless attack. I don't know why I ended up feeling like I did. Emotions can be odd and fucked up I suppose.

Anyway, cheers for the enquiry. 'Preciate it.

That was you we saw on the news, I bet.

 
My state decided it needed a little attention today.

Man's head found on Jackson porch
http://www.clarionledger.com/story/.../?hootPostID=7ac5c908312654519023f9c2717d703b

The head, Jackson Police Department spokesman Cmdr. Tyree Jones said, was that of a young black male who has not yet been identified.

The cause of death, he said, appeared to be "severance."


I ain't for certain, but I think the writer just made a funny.


A badly burned body was later discovered in a wooded residential area off Green Street near the corner of Grand Avenue — about a half-mile to a mile away. A resident using the road had spotted the body, Jones said. While the body was that of a black male, and it's likely part of the same case, confirmation is still awaiting autopsy results.
 
Don't we already have that happen enough with...umm...other people? When did killing someone become just not enough.WTF.
 
So a politician got shot in Washington today. It's all over the news. Online, I've seen people saying that it was a liberal. Then they said that they wouldn't have minded if the guy had shot a democrat. I've seen people already firing up the gun control debate. That's going to be fun. Again. I've seen people melting down because "who would do such a thing?"

All the while, I'm just sitting here like "I don't know that guy. Fuck him."

I care about politicians as much as they care about me. Or you. Or that guy over there.

What's the worst case scenario? Dude doesn't pull through, they put another corporate mouthpiece in his place, and shit is no better or worse than it was before.

Maybe that makes me a bad person. Still... fuck him.

Shooter was 66, that amuses me for some reason...
 
So we're just shooting everybody today. Is that it?

This would be unthinkable anywhere else. In 'murica, it's just Wednesday.
 
It was a GOP group practicing for some charity baseball event.So Republicans and some lobbyists and some interns.Apparently the shooter was a volunteer on Bernie Sanders' campaign.Just going to be a big excuse for Republicans to make some noise about something.It's Shitty but they'll probably make it worse.
 
And (sorry) but some dude went postal at a UPS hub in SF.Haven't even heard if they know why..
