Major Incident In Southport

[JonathanM]

When there is a high profile attack the police often say that, as far as they know, it is not terror related. This seems to be a standard procedure. I have a couple of questions about this. Firstly, why do they do this? Is it to re-assure the country that they are not anticipating further attacks. If so, that seems sensible to me. And then my other question, how many times have the police said it isn't terror related, but we found out later that it was.

Uncontrolled immigration inevitably leads to conflict between the indigenous population and immigrants.

Of course the apartheid policy, disputing and denying of property and persecution of the indigenous population has no effect.

When there is a high profile attack the police often say that, as far as they know, it is not terror related. This seems to be a standard procedure.

Perhaps terror-related offences are investigated differently, and even by a specialist branch.
Terrorists might have access to a different 'mitigating' plea than plain criminals.
It could open up an international dimension to the case and the pleas.

It seems to make sense to consider it as a purely criminal act in order to avoid any 'muddying of the waters'.
Until, and if, it becomes designated as a terror related act.

FYI, Refute means "to prove (a statement or theory) to be wrong or false; disprove".

Yes, that's the real definition, but it's used so often to mean deny (without evidence) that that meaning is becoming acceptable. Meanings of words change.

Whereas to police means "the civil force of a state, responsible for the prevention and detection of crime and the maintenance of public order".

No, that's a definition of police as a noun. To police is a verb form.

Either way these people in charge of our country would be letting everyone get away with murder... oh wait.

No one is getting away with murder. You are waffling again.

No they literally are.

Jack Unterweger was an Austrian serial killer who was convicted of murder

Kenneth McDuff was an American serial killer who was convicted of multiple murders

He was arrested again and convicted of multiple murders.

He was then returned to custody, where he remained until his death in 2010.

He was re-arrested and convicted again, serving additional time in prison.

While McCann was not initially convicted of murder, his crimes had a severe impact on numerous victims, and he was later sentenced to 33 life sentences.

They were convicted in 2018 and sentenced to life imprisonment

Campbell was convicted of Skidmore's murder in 2017 and sentenced to life imprisonment with a minimum term of 33 years.

He was convicted of murder and sentenced to life imprisonment with a minimum term of 39 years.

Robert Thompson and Jon Venables were convicted of the murder of James Bulger,

Bond was sentenced to five years in prison

She was sentenced to life imprisonmen

Simon Hall was convicted of the murder of Joan Albert in 2001.

That is hands down the stupidest post I have seen in a long time. You claimed people were getting away with murder "literally" and proceed to post numerous examples of people being jailed and not getting away with it. What an idiot...

We're not discussing the difference between 'denying' and 'policing'. We're discussing the difference between 'refuting'' and 'policing'.

No, that's a definition of police as a noun. To police is a verb form.

I'm sure you're able to imagine the typical actions required for the police 'to police'.

Another one who literally cannot read all were convicted released and reoffended. Hence my original point of just exterminating them. Maybe you forgot overlooked that too.

So-Dense by name So-Dense by nature.

You too are banned for not paying attention.

Honestly some of you lot i see why you're on here all day brain rot and unable to hold a job down maybe?

 

[JonathanM]

Who is on your banned list at the moment?

 

[JohnD]

He can't "ban" people.

He can only ignore them.

So they didn't "literally" get away with it. Glad we cleared that up.

 

[JonathanM]

I assumed it meant banned as in "will not engage with".

I think "he" might actually be a "she".

Has filly reported herself to the police yet for stirring up racial hatred?

 

[Mrs Doubtfyre]

You as well, probably for daring to ask.

I was being serious. festive posted this reply to me. It might be a joke I'm not getting! I've never had any interaction with this poster before yesterday so I don't know any background. But I took it at face value.

I bet you've never respected Tobias until he tweeted that, another bet ooh i could be a rich woman here!
