Sad. But if that's really ISIS, that's pretty pathetic. Assuming he's an ISIS plant, he's spent two years in the US plotting this attack, and he just runs around a bit cuts a few people and gets shot?
Yeah, I'm not buying that this is some big terrorist event. Seems he's inspired by the US interfering in muslim countries or something like that? Sure, I can buy that. Goes a bit crazy for whatever reason, doesn't know how to deal with it (I'm guessing talking about emotions isn't particularly high up the educational agenda in Somalia or Pakistan) and just decides to grab a knife and go for it.
If he was some sleeper of ISIS, it could be that he couldn't work out getting a gun. It isn't as easy as the media would have people believe.
Bear in mind, I don't think he was an ISIS member. Just your run of the mill religion of peacer losing his marbles over some slight.

It's perhaps difficult to get a gun - assuming so, there's still plenty of other ways to actually inflict a lot of damage on a lot of people and a knife isn't the way.

A car or truck can definitely do some damage (i.e. Nice, France attack) but luckily I don't think this guy had the patience or mental horse power to wait for an opportunity like that.

And like I said, if that's the best ISIS has to offer, no big deal.
And like you said, he's not likely an ISIS guy. Or Al-Qaeda, or whatever, just a crazy guy. We see plenty of crazy guys that aren't liked with whatever group.

Isis tells people to attack using cars and knives. Just random people that is, part of their propaganda campaign.

You can probably debate whether the use of legal force was entirely necessary, but the cop shouted "get down on the ground or I will shoot you" or whatever before doing so when the guy didn't comply. I'm not losing any sleep over this being a 'white cop kills poor black man' case.

It's remarkable how those things that apparently don't work in america are perfectly fine elsewhere.

I don't think there will be one. Guy was clearly in the midst of a (feeble) rampage, not like he was on the ground with arms outstretched and got a double tap to the head or whatever.
-
They said the guy was silent and didn't say anything or respond to police commands.
Cop acted quickly and decisively, probably saved lives.

You mean lethal force.
Legal force covers a broad variety of things such as curfews, permits, obeying traffic laws ect...
-
Did I say legal? So I did. Oops. Yes, lethal.
-
I Think the tendancy is to say "oh we haven't found any links to isis. Therefore not terrorism" the guy is clearly inspired by isis who has specifically called for both vehicle and knife attacks.

So British cops wouldn't have shown up in tac gear to a call about someone flattening 10 people with a car then running around with a butcher knife? Those MP5s they carry must be decorative.
I think they would be on the careful side after what has been going on in Europe of late.

Perhaps, perhaps not. But in general, police here are extremely reluctant to use lethal force, which is reflected in the number of people they've killed.So British cops wouldn't have shown up in tac gear to a call about someone flattening 10 people with a car then running around with a butcher knife?

They shouldn't be because you take a Somali refugee with a knife and police reluctant to kill him and you get Lee Rigby beheaded in the streets of England.
