Trump: It's time to put an end to political correctness

After the Saturday terrorist attack in London, it is necessary for the sake of security to abandon political correctness, says US President Donald Trump. Trump wrote about this on his Twitter.

“We need to end political correctness and truly engage in the safety of our people. If we do not grow wiser, it will only get worse,” Trump believes.

In addition, Trump criticized the statements of the mayor of London Sadik Khan about the attack. “At least seven were killed and 48 suffered from a terrorist attack, and the mayor of London says that“ there is no reason for panic! ” - he wrote. On Sunday, as reported The Guardian, Khan in his appeal about the Saturday terrorist attack called on residents and guests of the city not to worry about the presence of police and military on the streets, calling London the most safe city ​​in the world. "

According to Trump, the security is facilitated by free sale of weapons. "You noticed that now we have no debate about weapons? This is because they (terrorists. - Ed.) Used knives and truck!" he noted .

Previously, Trump said that potential terrorists should prohibit entering the United States. “We must be smart, vigilant and gestured. It is necessary that the courts return our rights. We need a ban on entry as an additional security measure,” he wrote on Twitter. This was the first public reaction of the American president to the attack.

Trump expressed condolences to Britain and on behalf of the United States proposed any help to the country.

On Sunday, British Prime Minister Teresa May said that in connection with a terrorist threat it is necessary to conclude new international agreements on the regulation of the Internet. May also suggested expanding the powers of the police and special services, in particular, increasing the deadlines for the detention for terrorist and other criminal crimes without charges.

Having reached the Boil market, three terrorists with knives jumped out of the car and arranged a massacre. A few minutes later, the police shot criminals.

As a result of the attack, 7 people died, apart from the dead terrorists. 48 people were delivered to hospitals. According to updated data, 21 people are in critical condition. The responsibility for the terrorist attack has not yet taken on a single group.
