June 6, 2017London’s Muslim Mayor Sadiq Khan wonders if the British government should cancel President Trump’s planned visit to the nation. I’m sure Khan’s suggestion has something to do with the fact that Trump tweeted about him directly after the London terrorist attacks.
We must stop being politically correct and get down to the business of security for our people. If we don’t get smart it will only get worse

At least 7 dead and 48 wounded in terror attack and Mayor of London says there is “no reason to be alarmed!”

Some argue Trump took Khan’s quote out of context.
“You will see an increased police presence today, including armed officers and uniformed officers,” Khan said on Sunday. “There is no reason to be alarmed by this.”
Technically, Khan was telling people not to be alarmed by an increased police presence. I get it. But still. OF COURSE people are going to be alarmed. Three attacks across the country in– what? Three months? THAT’S why an increased police presence was necessary in the first place. That is alarming.
Unsurprisingly, Trump doubled down.
Pathetic excuse by London Mayor Sadiq Khan who had to think fast on his “no reason to be alarmed” statement. MSM is working hard to sell it!

It’s safe to say Khan’s a little bitter about that. When asked if Trump’s planned visit to the UK should be canceled, he said, “I don’t think we should roll out the red carpet to the President of the USA in the circumstances where his policies go against everything we stand for.”

That’s the reason? Trump’s policies “go against everything” Khan stands for? What policies does he have a problem with specifically? The United States wanting to keep Islamic terrorists OUT of our country? That’s problematic? That’s meeeeeeeean and hurtful? That’s a shot to diversity? Please. This is why people are annoyed by you, Khan.
Maybe instead of focusing on keeping the President of the United States out of his country, Khan should focus on keeping ACTUAL TERRORISTS out. Just a friendly thought.
