Does anyone else wonder why lpm is adding to this thread?

That's horrible. My condolences.
And remember that if you botch the exit, the carnival of reaction may be coming to a town near you.

Horribly similar-looking incident in Glasgow now, in a hotel currently housing assylum seekers. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland- ... t-53195939

6 hositalised with knife wounds including one police officer, three dead including the attacker, who was shot by police.
