If it was just a random act of violence, perhaps some solace could be sought that you just in the wrong place wrong time as some nut job and the chances of that ever being the case again are practically non-existent.

But no. There will always be the chance of another Islamist headcase showing up until Rushdie is killed.

Oh no, you’re right, that was exactly my point. Which has been proven many times over.
