"Stochastic terrorism" accusations and charges only seem to flow in one direction.

That Hasan guy is American right? Unsurprisingly British laws need not apply.

A guy Hasan didn't like got shot in the neck during a public debate. A pair of Jewish embassy workers were gunned down while walking to a museum. A health insurance company CEO was shot outside of a hotel. I could go on.

In the UK there was an attempted murder when someone attacked a protestor burning a Koran, but luckily the UK authorities convicted the victim of the attack with "asking for it"[1] so justice was served.

GB news is slop, you get to decide if you're misinformed or malicious.

The victims fine was overturned and the attacker was convincted, justice system working as intended: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c9v7wlj3pr2o

Hasan is still not British.
