What's this?

I wouldn't call murdering civilians vigilante justice.

It's just retaliation that gives ISIS exactly what they want -- westerners viewings Muslims as the enemy and vice versa. This will just serve to encourage more Muslim kids to radicalize.

Its sad to see. London, much like NYC, is a melting pot where cultures from across the world live together. That should be celebrated not undermined.

Arguable whether "vigilante justice" is ever justice. -- hoolstoptheheels 06/19/2017 11:44AM
