    Guess the Missing Word

    A 19-year-old who plotted a massacre at his former college has been jailed for life with a minimum term of eight years.

    Liam Lyburd was convicted at Newcastle Crown Court of possessing an arsenal of weapons including pipe bombs and a gun, with intent to endanger life.

    The judge said his threats showed he was a significant risk to the public.

    In a deleted file recovered from his computer, Lyburd wrote: "People will die, there's no question about that."

    There's a word you might expect to see in this story, yet it appears nowhere. What is it?

    Clue: he's white, and not Muslim

    Assuming it is the word you mean, maybe you should check definition in the dictionary. Terrorist is normally used in respect of those seeking to use violence to achieve a political aim not random loonies. That Norwegian bloke was a terrorist, this one isn't.

    What is your point anyway? Digging up a few occasional non-Muslim plotters hardly alters the facts about where most terrorist threats in Europe come from.

          It's

          Not that Mr Fitz is attempting to troll because this particular nutjob is white and not of a dusky hue, that's unthinkable. Here's a hint, there's more than a few complete headcase murderers of every racial group, colour, creed and religion.

              Perhaps, but proportional to their religion there does appear to be a statistical correlation:

                Nutter?

                Christian isn't relevant because its not part of the reason he went postal.

                As pointed out above being Muslim is frequently mentioned is because they strap the bomb to themselves and shout Allah Akbar etc as they pull the trigger.

                If he had run round the college pulling the trigger shouting "I'm doing this for you Baby Jesus" you might be on to something.

                  Don't even think of going there, you run the massive risk of the dreaded accusation beginning with R, once that card has been played by a person with a certain amount or melanin in their skin or some self righteous t0sser who's looking for an instakill off flies the Outrage Bus and you're permanently less popular than a pork pie in an orthodox bar-mitzvah (notice I dodged the other group who dislike pork religiously).

                  These days it's simply not safe to imply that you're aware of the truth let alone run it out as the forces of PC obsession will hunt you down and murder you for thought crime.

                  I'll take another guess at the missing word (ok, it's a bit made up)...

                  PONTIFICATIONIST is that the right word or at least along the right line?

                    I wish they had separated "No Religion" I suspect that would be a very small number.
