Donald Trump, the American President, had said that it is not safe for Americans to come to Europe and the UK. How right he is. After the atrocities in Paris, Nice, Berlin and Brussels, one would feel unsafe to come to any European country.
Thursday, 23 March, was indeed a black day for London when a lone wolf went on a rampage and killed 4 and wounded 40 innocent people at Westminster. This was in the wake of similar atrocities in other cities. These terror attacks would corroborate what Trump said that it is not safe for Americans to come to Europe and the UK.
Indeed we are no longer safe walking in the streets of London. This latest killings in our city was carried out by a home-grown self radicalised ideologist. As our prime minister has said, this is an attack on free people everywhere. There must be a way of stopping such killings from happening again and again. How can we make the world a safer place for us, our children and the posterity to live in?
Inequality causes hatred and jealously. The inequality between the haves and have-nots must be the culprit and needs to be tackled in order that people the world over who are oppressed and hungry can feel satisfied and content with their lot. Religion must also be playing a part because many killings in the past and present have taken place in the name of religion.
