Katie Hopkins drags the USA President into London Killings

At least the Mayor , so far
is ignoring this tweet war

Denver 16-06-2019 12:20 PM

I do agree that Khan is terrible and is allowing it to happen without intervening

Liam- 16-06-2019 12:29 PM

I don’t understand what people want Khan to do, it’s not his fault that people are getting stabbed

Liam- 16-06-2019 12:30 PM

And it’s no surprise that Trump is paying attention to the British Laura Ingraham

Liam- 16-06-2019 12:32 PM

Also, not surprised, but still disgusted that ‘Londonistan’ is actually being used to describe London, would that be a thing if the Mayor wasn’t Asian? Most definitely not, appalling

It's the fact he has done nothing at all

[Ten arrests after two teenagers killed
in London within minutes in stabbing and shooting

Mayor of London Sadiq Khan tweeted he
was "sickened" by the attacks which
happened 12 minutes apart.]

But what is he supposed to do? People always say he’s doing nothing to stop it, but there are never any suggestions of what he should do, what can he personally do, to stop people getting stabbed?

I was being sarcastic :fan:

Yet, entirely truthful.

Obama tried, but he got blocked at every opportunity by the republicans and the lobbyists, i’ll give it to Donald, good on him for getting bumpstocks banned, but they’re only a minuscule part of the overall problem.

Complaining about a past administration does nothing to fix the problems of the current one.

Also blaming Khan for the violence in London is shortsighted and transparent. There's only so much a person can do, police budgets have been cut across the board so you can't have more of a police presence if you want it and it's not like Khan can change the law to make these crimes come with harsher sentences either.

Everything a mayor can do is limited by budget constraints which are decided by the government.

Hopkins' comment about 'Londonistan' is nothing short of racist.

Me and Mrs TS were discussing this earlier: NO IDEA how she manages to continue to have a platform with that sort of quite blatant hate speech. These social media platforms are an utter sociological disaster in my opinion and something HAS to change in their T&C's.

I also think Trump is (as usual) confused about the entire situation and how it works. As far as I understand it, City Mayors in large US cities have FAR more power / authority than is the case here. He's assessing Khan as though he has the executive power of a US city mayor, which does include quite a bit of sway with things like by-laws and policing, when that just is not the case with the Mayor of London.

Denver 16-06-2019 01:13 PM

The problem is banning guns and knives wont solve the problem it's the mindsets if the youth that has to change

Trump has no idea how things work, I for one, am shocked

Somewhat more worrying is that I'm entirely sure that Katie Hopkins DOES know fine well how it works, yet she chooses to deliberately and disingenuously lump the blame for crime in London on Khan because of his name and skin colour, as that benefits her "immigrants bad" narrative.

Like they could afford all that CGI!

It's CW's Arrow or nothing.

bitontheslide 16-06-2019 02:32 PM

It's just another case of Trump blindly believing the extreme right wing. Trump doesn't care, he just wants to pander to his base with an election coming up, and this does the job. There really isn't anything deeper in it than that.
