Because our government decided to massively cut the police budget causing 10,000 Police officers country wide to be made redundant.

Why do you think banning provocative billboards is supposed to stop this?

He said expecting terror attacks was "part and parcel of living in a major city"

Or something like that.

So basically "That is what happens in a big city" is bad

but "you've got to be prepared because this is what happens in a big city" is okay?

That's what I'm getting from your outrage here.

Or is it just because he said it that it is okay now?

Yeah, you're right

Expecting terror is part and parcel in a big city is totally different from preparing for terror is part and parcel in a big city.

You can be prepared for breaking an arm by having health insurance while not expecting to break your arm on any given day

The entire insurance industry is built around being prepared for the unexpected. You guys are just being willfully dense so you can make your totally super subtle jab

I wonder what it is? What hole in one's personality... what twisting, writhing inner rage, that makes a person post in support of a topic like this... Cherry picking a single data point in order to brew up hate towards Muslims? Especially when the comparison is so obviously flimsy, and it's a well-known fact New York's crime rate is low?

Brexit is the reason for the crime increase. It tanked the economy which affected the citizens also contributed to having to cut the funding to the police force.

You got a lot of uncertainty and confusion going forward.
