Liverpool terror attack

[m7mcfc]

Not seen this taxi driver claim he did anything heroic. Other people did. He is probably still thinking he is lucky to be alive. Don't know why people are commenting that it's all lies. Scouser or not I'm glad he got out of that car with his life.

Interesting comparison to comments on the Cancelo attack thread.

Suicide bomber inside your car vs thugs giving you a black eye and a cut.

To be honest, I know how the cabbie got his injuries, but I’m wondering how Cancelo got his. Surely, when faced with 4 intruders, he simply said, “Take whatever you want, just let me take my family to safety and leave you to it.”

I’m sure the full story will come out, and maybe it’s the gun culture here, but if I was caught on the hop in my house, I know that’s what I’d do!

“Please, let us go upstairs out of your way and leave you to it. You’ve already tripped the silent alarm, so you’ve only got about 3-5 more minutes so hurry up and leave.”

Re Cancelo. Intruders who have forced their way into a house and not normally kind and considerate. Further, if you really believe your last paragraph .....Well all I will say is no chance.

Hang om

In another thread didn't you say you had a gun in locked box next to the bed and if anyone broke in you would dirty harry them (not the sexual meaning) and blow them away.


Or was that another poster from the states

Details are important.

That was me.
I spoke to him being surprised by them downstairs.
In Illinois, there is no Castle Doctrine, so there is no reflexive right to use deadly force.

And, yes, were we to be in bed and hearing people rummaging downstairs, we would assemble in my son’s room (thus checking the person(s) were not family members) and anyone who came into that room would (after checking their identity) be dealt with with extreme prejudice.

I don’t see anything in conflict with my previous words, esp if I lived in a leafy Cheshire suburb!
