I've avoided posting in this thread because it was fairly obvious from the start that it would create tension.
Bend it like Hinchcliffe has a valid point, take the 'extremism' out of the murder and look at what actually happened. A young man was mercilessly run down by two men in a car during the day on a busy street near a primary school. The two men jumped from the car and dragged the injured man from under the car and hacked him to death in front of people, including young children, going about their daily lives.
Human life being extinguished in this way is wrong on so many levels. The two men were acting under their own volition in a pre-meditated assault on the fabric of society, what they did is repugnant beyond belief. All sides of society must come together to admonish the crime to prevent an escalation of religious tension and hatred that will ultimately become aimed at any one of 'middle eastern' appearance.
Please could all posters have some respect and decency towards the family of the murdered young man and try to keep conversation away from a tone that implies that the act was motivated by anything other than a psychopathic blood lust.
