Good, that guy is an unhinged lunatic who deserves every bad thing that happens to him

Could you imagine if you were a paraplegic or suffering from a severe brain injury how scary it must’ve been to have this loon show up at your house?! You don’t know if his beliefs will make him act violently (which is not an irrational fear), if he’s got a weapon. That would be alarming enough to someone without a physical disability, and they’d have more of a chance to defend themselves.
I won’t say what I think should happen here. I’ll be banned for inciting violence against a person.
Here is your intermittent reminder that Salman Abedi and his father were not merely allowed but encouraged to travel to fight in Libya after being given sanctuary due to being in danger of persecution in that country (the same persecution we asked to be done to those we suspected of terrorism when we flew them there) due to being members of the ‘Libyan Islamic Fighting Group’, a then-proscribed organisation that *has had its proscription revoked subsequent to the O2 Arena bombing*, all while your newspapers lied to you about the brave doctors and dentists and lawyers fighting for democracy against the mad Colonel Gaddafi who said they were al-Qaeda, and who were granted victory by umpteen thousands of taxed pounds-worth of missiles in a mendacious ‘no-fly zone’ that involved bombing tanks of the Libyan army (presumably in case they took off).
Suing is an effective weapon against bullshit. I think it’s actually the best way of countering this conspiracy theory nonsense that has been on the rise recently. All suing for defamation involves is asking them to prove that what they say is true. What could be fairer than that?
If they can’t prove it, then shut up and stop spreading lies.
If a conspiracy is true then surely the opportunity to prove it in court is a good thing? Surely we all need to know about it.
