It's also odd that out wonderful Psychiatrists cannot properly assess these people as being still dangerous as they go through their prison sentences.
An old friend of mine thought that these religious heroes/ murderers, who are taught that they can have a glorious life in heaven, with their own choice of virgins, should be buried under a pig sty. Apparently they wouldn't look forward to that!
But nothing changes.

As you say, lucky he wasn't shot, too.
Personally, at my age with a slight disability, i.e forgotten what it is like to run! I would without doubt, be among the panicking crowd trying to get away from the danger.
Sad but true.

One of the people who was murdered was a young man who believed in rehabilitation for prisoners.https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...onference.html

Funny you should say that Art, because I was talking to a chap at the check-out in M & S this afternoon, and he was telling me his nephew was there when the attack happened in 2017.
He also told me the same as you said, that the man who tacked the terrorist was an ex-criminal himself.
He didn't say anything about him being on day release, just that he was an ex-con.
That could explain why he wasn't afraid of the violence, maybe he was used to it in prison, so jumped in to tackle him while others legged it?

I agree Shroppy, not a lot us women could do, especially at our age.

Some might call it bravery but I call it foolsishness.

Re: Breaking news! (London Bridge attack)
The event was a rehabilitation workshop. So it's not surprising there were criminals or ex criminals there. I'm not sure the murderer was attending but it would make sense as he was on a day's leave.With his tag the terrorist would have been tracked to only permitted locations. So he used a prison service sanctioned event as a way to commit this atrocity. He must have planned this for months, deliberately booking a workshop which he would be encouraged to attend. My question is why would he ever have been let out after only a few years. Terrorists should not be let out early without close supervision and by that I mean the 15 police we were talking about earlier. I can't believe that prisoners/ex prisoners were not checked by security when entering such an event.
The hero who grabbed the Narwhal tusk was a Polish-born chef who works at Fishmonger house where the rehabilitation workshop was being hosted.
