The North Terminal at Gatwick Airport was evacuated this morning due to a suspicious package and an individual behave oddly. The individual was arrested by Sussex Police and some outlets are stating he was armed.

This comes less than a day after the attack in Paris, but there is no guarantee that they are linked given the small scale of this mornings event at Gatwick.
UPDATE - Suspect identified as a 41 year old French Citizen who discarded an item in a bin, public still not allowed into the terminal and have been moved to a nearby hotel.

Yeah, sure keep doing that, we here in the Philippines need as many scares as we can when APEC comes to town.
Really, though, it’s scary. But it’s not impossible that one group can be big enough to orchestrate simultaneous attacks on any point in EU or US, or worse, right here in Manila, with many hot high-profile persons that can be targets. And that’s the scarier part.

I’d be willing to bet there will be scares all across Europe this weekend and coming week. They’re trying to push everyone into all-out war against an enemy that is incredibly hard to spot.

ISIS is an apocalyptic cult. They really do think if the pick the right war, they can bring about Judgement day

Yup, it sucks too, because 99% aren’t bad people at all. But as usual, it’s the 1% that gives the 99% a bad name.

ISIS, and the other groups they work with. They want to bring about war, to satisfy their twisted version of Islam.

Fuckin’ cowards. You don’t wanna fight the military and the police who have a fair shot against you, so you go after the unarmed civilians.
Completely worthless wastes of long protein chains and hydrocarbons. Calling them monsters gives them too much credit. They’re just human-shaped beings that are completely devoid of any humanity or value.

The Police at Gatwick are significantly armed (H&K G36C and a taser). Had anyone opened fire at the airport it would have been one of the more easily defended place in the UK. There is always an armed unit there patrolling with more similarly armed officers nearby, there is only two terminal and being a single runway it’s a small area to cover. In fact due to the security, airports here are the sensible place to try and shoot people
