False flag operation to derail Brexit:

 

Witness: Attacker yelled 'put Britain first'
Police have not commented on the circumstances surrounding the attack and a motive wasn't immediately clear.
But a witness claimed that the assailant who attacked Cox was yelling "put Britain first," the Press Association reported.

Hopefully nobody falls for it, but Britain is pretty damn cucked.

FTA:

 

"According to records obtained by the Southern Poverty Law Center"

 

 

You can stop reading right after that.

 

The source is a hate group.

 

 

.

 

It's not the only source reporting it:

 

http://www.abc.net.au/news/2016-06-17/jo-cox-alleged-killer-tommy-mair-had-neo-nazi-links/7520362

https://news.vice.com/article/suspected-killer-of-british-mp-jo-cox-had-ties-to-neo-nazis-in-us

 

And plenty of others.

 

Relevance?

 

Possible motive.

His link was buying a pamphlet 17 years ago...................I post "informational" articles all the time, some are strong and some are weak.

 

This doesn't rise to the level of weak.

 

 

Jo Cox MP Was the Best of Britain. Politicising Her Death is the Worst

by Louise Mensch

 

FTA:

 

Jo’s loss is something that all of us in the UK must feel and our politics is irrelevant. Far, far too many on the Remain side of the Referendum have, however, used Cox’s tragic death for political point scoring.

 

Her attacker, Thomas Mair, may or may not have shouted “put Britain first.” One alleged eyewitness denied ever hearing him shout it. Another, cited as definitively saying so, was far less clear in her local paper, saying he shouted “what sounded like” that phrase. It is reported that one Thomas Mair, 10 years ago, subscribed to a racist magazine.

 

But, more clearly, Mair had distinct, long-established mental health problems. He had had treatment for it; he was on medication.

He attended Pathways Day Centre for adults with mental illness. He did volunteer gardening for the elderly. He had a mixed-race brother of whom he was fond, according to his family, who said he never expressed political or racist views.

 

Many have a menacing picture of Mair in what look like combat fatigues. It is a cropped picture. The full picture shows Mair is wearing a camouflage jacket and big red gardening gloves, sitting on a park bench with a pair of secateurs. He was just gardening:

The exact same bastions of the regressive left who rightly demanded that the Orlando massacre not be blamed on Muslims have not hesitated to try to pin this brutal killing on Brexit campaigners, who are fighting a strong, just and non-racist campaign for Britain to leave the EU.

 

I can only pray that they do not succeed in their frankly wicked attempt to use public grief over Jo Cox in this way.

 

If her killer was indeed a sufferer of severe long term mental illness then any racist tendencies are beside the point. It is being reported now that he was a neo-Nazi who had bought explosives manuals and books on how to make bombs and had done so for years – LONG before an EU Referendum was even thought of.

 

His psychopathy therefore had precisely nothing whatsoever to do with Brexit. Will the Remain trolls apologise to the rest of us?

 

Her death at the hands of a mentally ill and violent constituent cannot and must not derail the national debate between decent and civilized people over Britain’s future, a debate in which she proudly took part.

 

The Vote Leave campaign bears no responsibility – none – not the tiniest sliver – for any part of what happened to Jo Cox MP, and neither do its supporters. Anybody suggesting that at this grief-stricken moment should be treated with the most profound contempt.

Why is the Killer of British MP Jo Cox Not Being Called a “Terrorist”?

...The difference is obvious: Timms’ attacker was a Muslim of Bangladeshi descent, while Cox’s alleged killer . . . is not. As I’ve written repeatedly, the word “terrorism” has no real concrete meaning and certainly no consistent application. In the west, functionally speaking, it’s now a propaganda term with little meaning other than “a Muslim who engages in violence against westerners or their allies.” It’s even used for Muslims who attack soldiers of an army occupying their country.

It’s certainly true that there are some suggestions that Mair – Cox’s alleged killer – had struggles with mental illness. But exactly the same was true of Omar Mateen, who slaughtered 49 people in an Orlando LGBT club last week, and he was instantly decreed to be a “terrorist” by essentially every media outlet despite those mental health issues and his obvious struggles with his own sexual orientation.

Again, the difference is painfully obvious. As Reza Aslan put it today about Mair: “He suffered from mental illness is now terror shorthand for ‘he wasn’t Muslim’ … even if he was a !@#$ing Nazi!”

(It's not suggested, it is documented, he was under treatment and attended therapy)

But exactly the same was true of Omar Mateen, who slaughtered 49 people in an Orlando LGBT club last week,

(no, his link goes to a WAPO article that quotes his wife on how Mateen was acting, Not remotely the same)

and he was instantly decreed to be a “terrorist” by essentially every media outlet despite those mental health issues and his obvious struggles with his own sexual orientation.

( NO. Multiple outlets cautioned us to not jump to the terrorists conclusion, but that it may be a horrible Hate Crime)

 

 

 

Mr Greenwald has written many excellent articles in the past, this is a dishonest twisting of the truth.

 

 

and I am scolded for posting one sided articles............ :D

:beer:

It's one sided, unquestionably, but it's also got a lot of salient points. The term terrorism and terrorist is being wielded when its politically expedient or racially motivated -- which isn't a good bar to use when it comes to responding to the crimes themselves.

 

You have the governments of the western world using terrorism to push their expansion of powers at the expense of civil liberties -- which is fueling the totalitarianism we're seeing on the rise in Europe and right here at home, then you have the media reacting to every story with fear mongering and nationalism which are stirring up unrest rather than reporting facts. "It's about terrorism! No, gun control! No, mental health!" It's a game of semantics being played at our expense, because the only consistent thing about all of these tragedies is big government creep in the aftermath.
