Another terror attack

Why am I an alpha? I do worry about taking my young granddaughter to London, as I would worry about taking her to any big City these days. That is my perogative, if this makes me a wimp in Saturns or your eyes, then probably says more about you than me. If Saturn feels I have been taken in by a media frenzy, that is his perogative. If you think I am an alpha for my views on here, that is your perogative.
Without meaning to insult anyone I suspect this is as much an age thing as anything. Those of us who remember London in the seventies will know it could be a pretty hairy place where violence was a common experience on many occasions, not just football matches or pubs, but a willingness to accept that reality in your twenties tends to diminish as you get older. And not just because running away isn't as easy.

Like most major cities anywhere in the world, if you actively seek trouble or act like a knobhead you’ll find it. If you go about your normal business the chances of any sort of crime happening to you are minuscule at best.

Yes but what I mean is that your willingness and ability to deal with any trouble tends not to be the same after another forty + years.
From my own experience the chances weren't miniscule back then but everyone coped.
 
Your attempts to distract from the topic are getting more pathetic.

I know it's hard for you leftists to stick to topics where your arguments are crumbling around your ears.
Correct. Anybody taking bets on how long until the forthcoming significant Terror Attack ?

24 hours ? 3 days ? Longer than that ?

PS.....i propose the HOL-Troll rule. 5 consecutive irrelevant or insulting postings on a thread = report them to Mods.
