  1. It looks like OP posted an AMP link. These should load faster, but AMP is controversial because of [concerns over privacy and the Open Web](https://www.reddit.com/r/AmputatorBot/comments/ehrq3z/why_did_i_build_amputatorbot).

    Maybe check out **the canonical page** instead: **[https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cdxr4qn6d66o](https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cdxr4qn6d66o)**

  2. He is still in the hospital from the injuries, I hope that he survives 🤞

  3. Don’t look back in anger! Look here at this hero instead!

  7. Can we point out he is a immigrant probably and if we should kick all the immigrants that commit crimes should we kick the attackers too?.

  9. Guy with an immigrant name saves a bunch of people from a Crazy British Man.

    Not the narrative Reform voters wanted

  10. Immigrants fighting off immigrants. That’s so cool. We need more immigrants to fight off the immigrants.

  11. Give him medals, money, titles…!

    An absolute hero unlike that scum who attacked unarmed, innocent people.

  13. Does the UK give out awards for acts of civic courage? Cause he deserves one.

  15. This shows exactly why there must be staff on board the train. We cannot leave passengers’ safety and sense of security to surveillance alone. Thank you, Samir — I hope you make a quick and smooth recovery.

  16. Got mixed feelings on his colleagues calling him “Sam” instead of “Samir” in times like these, but maybe I’m overthinking this. Dude is clearly someone they consider one of their own, and he’s a champ for doing what he did. And maybe he deserves peace instead of being used against brain-dead reform voters who will just ignore these facts as they don’t fit snake oil story they’ve gobbled blindly and are too thick-headed or embarrassed to rethink things. Shrug.

  17. I hope he pulls through & gets some recognition for his efforts

  22. Member of x demographic does bad thing “see, these people are bad ” “booo no you’re wrong and racist.”
    Member of x demographic does good thing “wooo yeah see they are awesome”

  23. Like local population, there are good ones and there are bad ones. Trailer trash is never depicted as being from the middle east or Asia for a reason.  Everyone should get a chance and there are some that should just flat out be deported. 

  24. I don’t suppose there will be quite the same demand to immediately be told his immigration status , ethnicity and religion *or it’s a conspiracy* as there was with the attacker?

  25. In a world of Anthony Williamses and Brexit Bazzas, we need more Samirs

  26. Pretty messed up they didn’t give him a name before this.
