Donald Trump responds to news of a possible terrorist attack in London by suggesting the internet be "cut off" and pushing for tougher travel ban.

So this happened this morning.

A device that triggered a rush-hour fire aboard a subway train in the British capital was being investigated as terrorism Friday, police said. 

Authorities confirmed 22 people had been injured at Parsons Green Tube station in southwest London. None of their wounds — mostly superficial burns — were considered serious or life-threatening. 

Investigators were examining the remains of an improvised explosive device.

Metropolitan Police Deputy Assistant Commissioner Neil Basu, the senior national coordinator for counterterrorism policing, said the detonation was being treated as a "terrorist incident."

The investigation is currently at the evidence gathering stage and the British police are being tight lipped as they do their jobs.

However that did not stop our Twitler-in-Chief from jumping in with his opinions.

Another attack in London by a loser terrorist.These are sick and demented people who were in the sights of Scotland Yard. Must be proactive!

Loser terrorists must be dealt with in a much tougher manner.The internet is their main recruitment tool which we must cut off & use better!

Wait, cutting off the internet? Cutting it off for who?

The travel ban into the United States should be far larger, tougher and more specific-but stupidly, that would not be politically correct!

Remember Trump as this point has NO idea who carried out this attack, including whether they were a British citizen or not.

We have made more progress in the last nine months against ISIS than the Obama Administration has made in 8 years.Must be proactive & nasty!

Also completely untrue.

According to some news sources it appears that Trump is jumping to hasty conclusions and even perhaps sharing information that the authorities are keeping close to the vest.

The tweet came after another message in which he appeared to suggest that the attacker had been known to police, despite Scotland Yard not having said so. "These are sick and demented people who were in the sights of Scotland Yard," he posted in a preceding message. 

Donald Trump has a history of jumping to false conclusions and stepping all over investigations.

He is essentially guilty of doing the very thing that he accuses the media of doing, trying to be first with the story despite not having gathered sufficient evidence.

After three year investigation, Scotland Yard deems case of MI6 spy found dead and locked in a bag, an accident. I'm sorry, what? Update!

Courtesy of the Guardian:  

The MI6 spy found dead in a bag three years ago probably locked himself in the holdall and died as a result of a tragic accident, Scotland Yard has said. 

Outlining the results of a three-year investigation on Wednesday, the Metropolitan police said Gareth Williams most likely died alone in his flat. 

But Detective Assistant Commissioner Martin Hewitt said the police could not "fundamentally and beyond doubt" rule out the possibility that a third party was involved in his death. 

Williams's naked body was found in the padlocked bag, with the keys discovered under his body, in the otherwise empty bath in his flat in Pimlico, central London, in August 2010. 

Last year, a coroner concluded that Williams was probably unlawfully killed and his death the result of a criminal act. Following an eight-day inquest, the Westminster coroner, Dr Fiona Wilcox, said he was probably either suffocated or poisoned, before a third party locked and placed the bag in the bath. 

But Hewitt said Scotland Yard's three-year inquiry had come to a different conclusion and that Williams was "most probably" alone when he died. 

"Despite all of this considerable effort, it is still the case that there is insufficient evidence to be definitive on the circumstances that led to Gareth's death," he said. 

"Rather, what we are left with is either individual pieces of evidence, or a lack of such evidence, that can logically support one of a number of hypotheses." 

Hewitt added that the investigation had added "some clarity and detail" to the case, but that "no evidence has been identified to establish the full circumstances of Gareth's death beyond all reasonable doubt".

Look I don't want to tell Scotland Yard how to do their job but.....no scratch that, I really DO want to tell them how to do their job. 

Listen when you find a naked dead guy locked in a bag, with the keys on the OUTSIDE of the bag, that pretty much rules out "accidental death."

I mean don't you think?

Seriously DON'T you think?

even if we were to entertain the possibility that this guy some hoe got off on zipping himself up naked in various pieces of luggage, HOW would locking the bag enhance that experience?

And while we are on the subject HOW in the fuck do you lock a bag from the inside, while leaving the keys on the outside?

My new rules is that if I am ever inclined to kill anybody I am flying us both to England first because apparently there you can get away with ANYTHING!

Update: Okay it appears that I read the part about the keys incorrectly, and that they were inside the bag instead of outside the bag. This changes the story from completely impossible to virtually impossible. 

I continue to stand by my WTF response however.
