Relax, you Islamophobe. He was just offering to butter their toast for them. And note that he is sent to a hospital. British authorities continue to pretend that behavior of this kind is simply evidence of mental illness. Jihad? Oh, what does that interior spiritual struggle have to do with this?
True to establishment media form, this Birmingham Mail story about this incident makes no mention of the man screaming “Allah.”
“Shocking moment police taser knifeman who was climbing on the front of people’s houses in Birmingham,” by Laurence Dollimore, MailOnline, August 17, 2022:
Video footage has emerged of a knifeman being repeatedly tasered by armed police after clambering a house while screaming ‘Allah, allah!’.
In a clip shared on social media on Wednesday, the man can be seen carrying a rucksack while waving a bladed weapon above his head as he stands above a front door on a quiet residential street, believed to be in Birmingham.
He then lowers himself to the ground by stepping on an open window as a group of armed police officers and at least one service dog encircle him.
The individual is seen raising the knife behind his head as he takes a step towards the group of at least 10 policemen and women.
It is then that the force fire him with tasers, but they appear to initially hit his rucksack.
They eventually land a blow and the man falls to ground, knocking over wheelie bins as officers swoop in.
One can be heard yelling: ‘Drop the knife!’ repeatedly, before another shouts: ‘I’ve got him.’
The video then pans to show multiple police cars and extra officers in the street.

‘He was tasered at the scene and detained before being taken to a secure hospital facility for an assessment and treatment.’

I was thinking that they should have let the dog do the taste test on him but the dog wouldn’t be able to get the taste out of his mouth.

Good, finally they got the crazy fellow before he hurt others.
