Tory MP Sir David Amess dies after stabbing
Source: BBC News
Conservative MP Sir David Amess has died after being stabbed at his constituency surgery in Essex.
Police said a man has been arrested on suspicion of murder after the stabbing in Leigh-on-Sea.
They said they recovered a knife and were not looking for anyone else in connection to the incident.
Sir David, 69, had been an MP since 1983 and was married with five children.

So far so good, only reporting of facts...the first reply:
1. We export too many things
The very first thing that's said, is that this is the fault of America (for which read, real America, Republican America, certainly not liberal America).
9. The anger, the hate, the division, the influence of Trump around the world.
Even more specific - it must be Trump. There's no other possible explanation, no other source of violence...
11. I am halfway expecting
similar to start happening here, given the level of political rhetoric on the right. Not to mention the amount of crazies out there. Look at Gabby Giffords, after all.
Note again, the assumption that this is all about how wicked the right is.
To be fair, there are a few who know what things are like over here and who call our the knee-jerk reaction - but plenty who are blind to everything other than their hatred of America and Republicans.
For clarification, the deceased (R.I.P.) was a member of the Conservative Party, a Catholic (and a proper one, not a Pres. Biden one), campaigned for pro-life issues, and appears to have been killed by a Somali immigrant (I wonder what this man's religion is...).
Their hatred is shredding their insides - including their already drug-addled brains.

Damn straight. Violence and hate always comes from the Democrats in the US, at least 99.999% of the time.

FIFY. Much as DUpipo would deny it, Scalise and Paul were assaulted by Progs who acted on political hatred. Giffords' shooter, OTOH, was a fruitcake obsessed with her and incapable of coherent political thought.

Grammar was his pet peeve.
Gabrielle Giffords shooting: Gunman linked to grammar 'judge'
This article is more than 10 years old
Activist apparently shared Jared Lee Loughner's obsession with grammar and mind-control theories
Former friends have recounted that Loughner had a fixation for grammar and words, saying that he challenged Giffords at a previous public meeting with the impenetrable question: "What is government if words have no meaning?"
In one of his video diatribes posted on the internet, he said: "The government is implying mind control and brainwash on the people by controlling grammar. You control your English grammar structure."

Doesn't sound like we exported anything here.
A government source told the BBC the man arrested was a British national who, according to initial inquiries, is of Somali heritage.
While this is initial information, it doesn't take too much digging to see much of the violent crimes in England the last year or two are committed by various Middle Eastern/African immigrants and refugees. The only way to blame the US would be for England adapting proggie open boarder policies.

The man arrested by police following the killing of the MP Sir David Amess has been named as Ali Harbi Ali.
The 25-year-old is being held under the Terrorism Act and officers have until Friday to question him.
Whitehall officials confirmed the man's name to the BBC, and said he was a British man of Somali heritage.
yeah, the murder suspect checks off all of the boxes to be an evil Trumper.
I'm waiting for the msm to label him as a white-somali and photoshop a red MAGA hat onto him...

This would require a leftist with the ability to meme.
As there is no such creature, expect Chrissy Matthews to get a tingle up his leg as he tells the world, "if you squint just right, you can just see a MAGA hat on this character".

For once, they're right. The French certainly agree:

I'm sure Aaron "Jay" Danielson would like to have a word with you. However that's unfortunately not possible since he was executed by Antifa thugs (the DNC's version of Adolf Hitler's SA) on August 29th, 2020.
