I'm aware of that. I was in this thread when it was still going on telling people to just stick with the police report and not put too much stock into the "three suspects" claim. I trust in the police in these situations over reactionary claims or the desire to rush information.Sane people in the UK do not have an issue accepting this as terrorism. Nor does our police forces, government or PM (regardless of what anyone has to say about May). The only reason it was "slow" to report was because the police as they always do have to take control of the area, investigate and find answers. As someone was taken alive which doesn't happen often there was probably preliminary questioning for motive as well.
And the person I responded to claimed that the public viewed this differently because POC are treated differently than white people. I agree with you, from what I've seen people are solidly confirming this as terrorism, but based on the premise of the other post, I was just pointing out that it was contextually disingenuous.
