arcade fireman Posted May 23, 2017 Report Share Posted May 23, 2017 Yeah it's difficult to argue the girl tweeting that wasn't trying to make political capital in her own way by using the words "Tory supporters" to open her post with. Not good either way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyonks Posted May 23, 2017 Report Share Posted May 23, 2017 If it does turn out to I.S inspired, they have been targeting kids in the Middle East for years so in many ways not a surprise for them to cross this hideously low line Saying that still sent chills down my spine when fatalities were confirmed, but looked ominous when the footage of 7/8 ambulances heading towards the scene early on during the incident. Feel numb to be fair - it's wrong, but it does always seem that little more horrifying when it happens closer to home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are many sick fucks posting shit on twitter after an attack like this. To cherry pick the ones just from Tory supporters seems to me to be making a political point. Party politics has absolutely no place here, those bastards aren't representative of anyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MilkyJoe Posted May 23, 2017 Report Share Posted May 23, 2017 Just catching up on this after being busy at work. At least they haven't hung around calling it a terrorist incident like they usually do. This is fucking sickening. Kids for fucks sake.

What is the relevance of how quickly they call it a terrorist incident? Surely they should get all their facts straight before they release anything to the public. Regardless, there are far more serious things to worry about that how the media word their reports. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea the alt-right crowd in particular love that narrative. A lot of chatter on Twitter from them that it's proof of some kind of conspiracy when in reality its the emergency services ensuring that unnecessary panic isn't caused so they can deal with the victims first and investigate the facts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spindles Posted May 23, 2017 Report Share Posted May 23, 2017 At this time we know very little and to indulge in finger pointing or idle speculation just aids the perpetrators' desire to divide us. Fuck 'em, I say, whoever is responsible, don't give them the satisfaction of gluing yourself to twitter or 24 hour news rolling updates. Attention is what they crave.

Seeing pictures of some of the missing kids is absolutely heartbreaking. Whats wrong with the world? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heather90 Posted May 23, 2017 Report Share Posted May 23, 2017 My nearly 24 year old cousin took my 13 year old cousin this evening as a birthday treat. These are the sorts of people this vile scum targeted. Both safe but stuck in Manchester for now. Bigger cousin looking after a few girls unable to reach their parents. She's a star! Hope if anyone else has relatives/friends that they got out safely too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kalifire Posted May 23, 2017 Report Share Posted May 23, 2017 Just catching up with this over here. Awful, awful news. The place must have been rammed with kids. Utterly appalling. I lived in Manchester for many years and the city has a place in my heart. So very sad to read about this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaytee... Posted May 23, 2017 Report Share Posted May 23, 2017 Waking up hearing more of what happened and I feel sick. Thankfully friends who were there are safe.

Devastated I hope your friend is alright Lucy. Hopefully they are in one of the hotels. It is just sickening. What kind of a sicko targets a pop concert full of young kids? These kids will have been looking forward to this concert for months, just like all of us are on here in regards to Glastonbury. It could possibly have been the first concert some of them have ever been to. Your first concert should be one you cherish fondly for the rest of your life, not something that could possibly ruin it. I have been stuck in work all night just totally numb. It has started to sink in now and I am just too upset to be angry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Red Telephone Posted May 23, 2017 Report Share Posted May 23, 2017 Just awful, shocking news. Those poor kids and their parents. Let's not forget all the staff and security who work at gigs too for our benefit. Now is not the time for anger. Let's get down that farm in a month and show whoever did this, that their actions won't stop people doing what they enjoy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucy92 Posted May 23, 2017 Report Share Posted May 23, 2017 A concert full of kids. What kind of sick depraved individual targets a concert full of kids. I'm completely lost for words. It sounded absolutely terrifying. My friend is ok, the friend he went with is still missing. Just praying he's in one of the hotels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deaf Nobby Burton Posted May 23, 2017 Report Share Posted May 23, 2017 What horrendous news. My 13 year old niece went to her first gig the other day, she loved it and was looking forward to going to many more. Kids of all people should be safe when it comes to things like this. I know reports were initially all over the place as they often are with things like this, but sadly 19 fatalities can only be down to one thing.

Sadly it definitely seems like it was a bomb in the foyer. Sounds like it was by a merch stand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
