These vigils now border on the absurd. The Brits should be raging against the machine, against the cowardly politicians who sold them out to savages.
A man armed with a knife and a baseball bat was detained where people had gathered paying tribute to the Manchester victims; they were interrupted by the man’s protests.
The man, who was black and had a beard, was taken away in a riot can around 7pm.
Sounds Muslim. Birmingham has a very large Muslim population.

By Thomas Burrows for MailOnline, 23 May 2017:
A vigil in Birmingham for the Manchester Arena victims has been interrupted after a man apparently armed with a large knife and a baseball bat was detained nearby.
Birmingham held a candle-lit vigil to show solidarity with the victims of last night’s terror attack in Manchester.
The armed man shouted out as he was handcuffed by officers, just a short distance from where 1,000 people had gathered in the city’s main Victoria Square. The man, who was black and had a short-trimmed beard, was taken away in a riot can around 7pm.
Speakers which had been paying tribute to the Manchester victims were interrupted by the man’s protests, from down a side street.
Police, including armed response officers, then cleared the square a short time later.
The evacuation of the square was carried out as a precaution by police, West Midlands chief constable David Thompson confirmed.

The bomber – named today as 22-year-old Salman Abedi – was known to authorities. He died at the scene and police carried out a controlled explosion at what is believed to be his home during raids around the city today.
Police also raided a house where Abedi’s brother, Ismail, lived and arrested a 23-year-old man. Police and security services are trying to work out if the suicide bomber was part of a cell.
As well as the Birmingham vigil, thousands gathered in the centre of Manchester in a show of defiance, declaring they will not be ‘beaten’ or ‘intimidated’ in the wake of the terror attack.
Crowds spilled from Albert Square on to nearby roads, standing together in an act of solidarity.
Many carried flags, posters and placards bearing the message ‘I Love Manchester’, pledging unity across the city.

If the UK still had its proud, working class, someone would have beat him with his own bat, and shoved that knife where the sun don’t shine. ENOUGH! That should be the new rallying cry.
I was hoping 100,000 enraged Brits with baseball bats and steel pipes would March on the Muzzies hoods
Where are the men whose empire spanned the globe and the sun never set. Mrs. Peel, we’re needed!
They done been pussified. They had their guns taken away, their manliness long ago.
No men, only cucks.
Nice display of sympathy and solidarity, now, when the next attack comes and the one after that, what will you do? Be like the mayor of london says and “get used to it”?
Will someone please tell me why we need Muslim immigrants?
consumers to keep profits up. workers to keep wages down. fear to keep Europeans in their place… voters to make up for the rejection of political parties policies. that is why we need immigrants
They are needed to destroy western culture, nationalism and of course Christianity. All of these things impede globalism. The so called refugees are part of a well planned event brought to us by the UN.
For the incredible cultural diversity they bring to our lands. When you look at the push to bring these folks to our countries you find that those making the push all have well meant intentions but lack the common sense necessary to make an informed decision. Their need to “feel” good over rides their ability to recognize the dangers of their decision.
The stormer with a machete was certainly not a Muslim, right?
The roar of the British Lion is Muffled.

The British Lion has been defanged.
It will not be long before the Brits will cease to be a nation!
I agree I live in the UK and have been watching much of the ceaseless coverage of the Manchester atrocity.
They have interviewed many people but not once has anyone asked the difficult questions of “what would Muhammad do”? What about the verses of violence in the koran hadith and sira (of course quoting verse numbers)
But no it is all about how peaceful Islam is, how this act was a perversion of a great religion.
It is completely sickening to see interviewers defending Islam whilst ignoring the verses of violence.
it is all about how peaceful Islam is, how this act was a perversion of a great religion.
Let’s assume, arguendo, that this is true. I travelled extensively in the moslem world in the 80s and 90s. They hadn’t “discovered” terrorism. I could walk almost anywhere. There were thieves and thugs, I carried a knife and a stick, but Westerners were pretty safe. They still oppressed and murdered their Christian and Jewish neighbors, but they considered us to be more or less helpful, and they didn’t bother us. I always carried a Bible in my luggage, even in Saudi Arabia. So in recent times, islam was not the whirlpool of violence it is today. The argument for a peaceful islam could be maintained.
But it doesn’t matter. It doesn’t matter what they used to be. Starting about the time of the 1972 Munich Olympics attack, islam has been becoming more and more violent. It is now what you see it as. The places I walked freely, in Saudi Arabia, in The Sudan, in Lebanon, I wouldn’t go except as part of an armored column. Maybe most of the moslem people are still more or less peaceful. Assume they are. They still go along with the violent ones, and get caught up in the frenzy. Mao Tse Tung, who knew a thing or two about community organizing, believed he could rule effectively with 2% of the population behind him. I think we’re seeing those numbers in Europe. Those hard liners empower and encourage the “peaceful ones” to be revel in their new-found power. Islam is feeling its oats, right now, and we have to deal with that.
It doesn’t matter if they used to be peaceful We have to deal with them today.
Here we go…je suis Manchester.
Our leaders are sending a powerful message to jihadists: We have lots of flowers and candles, and we’re not afraid to use them.
Brilliance!
Agreed. Have you ever thought about how much cold beer all that flower, balloon, and teddy bear money would buy?
True, but I was thinkin more ammo.
Thanks. I had that same thought just when I hit the send key. You were “quicker on the draw”.
The size of the crowds shown, indicates that there are a lot of traditional, native Brits who agree that it is not a “moslem problem.” They lived through The Blitz and through The Troubles, both of which were worse. The problem is that the moslem population is growing. When the natives realize there is a problem, it may be too late.
It maybe too late now for them, there’s only a few people that have the fortitude in Britain that will stand up. Sure they will hold vigils, cry and moan but few will actually fight back for their country. I bet you in a few months the Brits will recall all their military to appease the jihadists
100% agree.. the most popular boys name in london now is Mohammad
This generation of brainwashed appeasers did not live through the Blitz. These are people from whom the most basic instant of self defense is brainwashed away.
If a three year old child senses danger he either confronts it or runs away. These morons instead invite more danger. And even proud of themselves. A lost tribe indeed.
nice
Teary candle lit vigils and stuffed teddy bears will do NOTHING to neutralize this problem.
Je suis Charles Martel. At least there are still places in the USA where an idiot with a knife and baseball bat won’t last too long. In the UK and EU, the people are uniformly defenseless.
hahaha
Morons. Someone should do a dissertation on it.
INstead of protesting ‘racists’ the people of Britain (of all colours and faiths) should be saying: ‘Enough!’
And where was the legally licensed armed citizen who could have stopped this dead cold? Oh, wait, that’s right, the UK citizenry has no need of such barbarian notions now that WWII is over and the individuals’ rights to self-defense have been sold out from under them for the sake of civility. If you live in such a society where the government does not trust the citizens to be armed, perhaps you should take a closer look at who should be distrustful of whom.
When I go to the grocery store here in NC I usually see two or three guys open carrying.
I usually pack a H&K .45 that is effective out past 100m concealed
There are usually at least 2 to 4 more concealed carriers around.
No body gets mugged, robbed, assaulted, raped and most are polite.
I love my state.
My heart goes out to the people of Europe.
It is torture to be helpless as these monsters attack the precious ones you love.
Being armed would not have helped the victims leaving the Ariana Grande concert, unless of course you are going to shoot any person standing around, possibly waiting to pick up their young daughter.
Having said that there are many times when it would be an obvious advantage.
Completely agree, concealed or open carry is only a deterrent to those who value their own life (criminals) These attacks are on ideals and philosophies. No amount of fire power will stop them unless you identify them first and can get the upper hand. I’m assuming that the venues level of security was less than expected or non-existent.
Suicide bombers like to get in position to get the most bang for the buck.
Being armed gives you the chance to drop them where they can do the least damage.
I can engage a man from 100m
rather easily.
Backpack bombs are seldom dangerous after 50m, less if you fire from COVER.
“Life is a crap shoot, I prefer loaded pistols & loaded dice” to standing there wetting my pants if I am lucky enough to see Suicide John
Do as YOU please, and I’ll do the same.
Ever watch men packing a pistol?
Normally their head is on a swivel.
Seldom do they walk around in their own little bubble.
Pressure cooker bombs are heavy, if you walk around with in a backpack you will be noticed.
A suicide bomber will normally have a little stress & fear on his face with a cumbersome backpack or vest.
A person packing a pistol will usually have their antenna up
an notice such things and seek cover.
Maybe, maybe not.
Life often is such a crapshoot.
Well said.
I attended Ms. Geller’s Summer Nights for Human Rights event in Manhattan Beach, CA. In the middle of the presentation a guy walked in with a backpack stuffed full of something and everyone was trying to sidle away from him — as if that would’ve helped.
Sorry but you are wrong a little stress can be caused by many things, people wearing heavy clothing that is not normally considered usual for the weather conditions may be for perfectly legitimate reasons, like have just arrived from a area/country that is hotter than the one they are now in.
I agree that there are some circumstances where being armed would be a benefit but a suicide bomber is not one of them unless you can see the bomb. Just think if you shot someone from a warmer climate and it turned out he was just there to pick up his daughter.
That word “freedom”, will disappear from human language.
X 10000000!!
You can’t defend yourself can you? No, your lefitst leaders DISARMED you, remember? Best you start carrying around a baseball since your enemies are carrying the bat.
Maybe you can have a nice game of ball and cure this evil on your land.
Now they are attacking the mourners. Are we not allowed to grieve? I guess that is not sharia.
Grief is allowed only if a Moslem mourns another Moslem. No one else matters to them.
You think if we tell them jihad isn’t fun anymore they might just go away?
I really don’t know what to think about the people of Europe anymore.
With a massacres happening about every ten days you would think they’d be ready to throw both the jihadi’s and the dieversity preachers in the North Atlantic.
Are they waiting for enslavement?
You can always throw furniture off of rooftops.
These basturds are not going to back off, if anything they will really rampage this summer.
The Germans(one of Merkel’s cabinet) have already hinted they wanted the US Army on their streets to control immigrant crime and Merkels bringing in a 1000+ more every week.
By midsummer the German people will feel like they are back in Stalingrad.
Our GIs will feel like they’re back in the Battle of Fallujah.
Unbelievable stupidity.
Why should it always be the Americans who have to send their sons and daughters to defend other countries? This is a German/EU/British problem. Let them settle it. We have enough to do here without having to worry about other countries.
They can call, but we don’t have to answer. Those bases are for our protection. If they want protection, let them protect themselves. They caused the problem, it is not our responsibility to fix their idiocy. The world is NOT America’s responsibility.
If Trump sends our guys in to save the Krauts’ Frogs’ and Brits’ collective bacon, he SHOULD be impeached, and I support the guy. Screw them — let them get angry enough to fix their own damned problems!!
Attacking the mourners is a time-tested method of terror from the Islamists.
It being Ramadan, it`s an ideal time to send a cruise missile to Mecca. A really big cruise missile. Islam deserves no respect.
“The Queen also held a minute’s silence at Buckingham Palace to remember those killed and injured in last night’s terror attack.” Well now – that should help, but how about a moment to remember the evils of Islam? To be fair, the queen is very old now, and I do not expect more from her. But back during the War, the royal family were staunch and steadfast against the Natzi threat. It seems they used up all their energy on that, because we have never heard a peep out of them condemning the Islamization of Britain. When the Islamists take over, they will be the first to lose their heads.
And guns are evil? No the 2nd amendment could have saved countless lives in Europe and Great Britain when good people are allowed to protect their loved ones.
The sheep of the UK and EU are not allowed to bear arms unless it’s for their useless guvmints.
I see the closet muzz/Nazi George Galloway and his muzz buddy observing the results of their carnage(photo with him in hat, open shirt, jacket) and other muzrats holding placards against racism. Unbelievable insanity.
The smarter muslums celebrate the slaughter in private — inside their mosques.
No. You want to question him. As a result of that questioning, they busted another guy at least. And they sent some 1,000 troops because they fear follow-on actions. Dead men tell no tales, and give up no secrets.
It may be fun to think that way, but you want to milk the perp for all the information he has. That takes patience, persistence, and skill.
Sadly it would seem that post ‘lone wolf’ attacks were many are killed, maimed and scared will now not be allowed to be mourned or supported as more ‘lone wolfs’ disrupt with more savagery in attempting to silence the cowed people of the westernized countries of Europe. Anglea Mekel must be so proud of her handy work. *smh
Without a fire in the belly response from those good people who live in westernized Europe, I fear they are now lost to the onslaught of the peaceful moderate poor refugee’s who’ve upset the natural peace loving order of the people who used to be the majority of those nation states. How long will we wait in the USA before we stem the tides and demand our government not only do something about those here past their visa’s, past their refugee status waivers and way past their ‘student’ visa’s, and send them home!! I don’t care if they jaywalk at this point! They break even one of our laws, they and their families must be returned to their origin nation!
people of Britain, its time to stop holding vigils and start holding loud defiant protests against what your worthless government is doing to you.
Time for the men of the UK to act like men.

To give you a clue, I’ll tell you how we do it here.
1. Find a few brave women who are willing to be bait.
2. You wait unseen with some pipes and chains.
3. You video the perpetrators harassing women.
4. You break their legs and ribs.
5. Video the results.
6 Post the video
I assure you, the problem will be solved.
God bless our glorious leader.. for at least TRYING to keep this scum out of here… Long live TRUMP!!!
