We have been doing it for decades, when there were constant news reports of terrorist bombs, or shootings, or whatever sort of attrocity. I remember when I was younger there seemed to be a report every night on some sort of IRA or UDA attack.
We do not do it to stand side by side with anyone. We do it because it is the right way to deal with these things. Well done to the people of London for going back about your business, by getting on with your life.
We accept that we will be attacked again, however that was a way of life for a long time. We will trust our Police to protect us as best they can and to make every effort possible to catch those who did it.
That is the cost of our freedom, it is a price we are willing to pay.
