Police said a 21-year-old woman was taken into custody. Timms has represented West Ham since 1994.
Jenny,
I don't see anything in plainfact's posts that says he's American! LOL. Are you okay?
This a story about a woman who stabbed an MP. It is not about gun rights, knife rights, Tea Partiers, or leftist violence. We don't even know all the facts yet. So people get off the soapbox and stop extrapolating on every article on every little thing. It is not a little thing this man was stabbed surely but getting off subject is just lame.
Dan, sorry, get the facts straight. The idiocy you spew is almost as inane as the rubbish coming from RODfromnc. To blame guns and not behaviors is the Democrat way of saying "I'm not responsible for my actions, blame someone else but me!" You are the same crybaby's that advocate over-legislation and "prevent me from myself" laws. Be a man, not a child. Accept that laws do not stop criminals, law abiding citizens should be free to make their own choices and not be subject to idot laws derived from scared little boys.
I have no sympathy for this man....Instead of offering condolences I am going to jam another jelly roll in my mouth and take my daughter to the OBGYN. chelsea keeps getting y infections!
oooooh did somebody say "little boys"??
I'm with you Mikey. I love little boys! mmm mmm mmm
uhh DON'T even look at me!
How in the world has this story become political fodder?!?! YOU PEOPLE ARE SICK!
You don't know what "sick" is, Sue.
what nationality was the stabber ?

Well this wouldn't have happened if someone had frisked her for a knife before
she came in the building. Personally, I think all women should be frisked daily
anyway. I would even volunteer to do the frisking ... at least the good-looking
ones. He he ...
All she wanted was a damn date and he, being a member of parliatment, didn't
want to date a mere commoner. Serves him right.
Nooooo, you're ignorannnntttt! I'm just a little white girl.. HEEEE heeeeee!!! Shammmonneyyy!
