They don't have an unlimited pool of volunteers. Just from the BBC News 24 channel, security guard ran into the building shouting at people to get back in. He must have seen the bomber before the blast. I know what you mean about leaving a bomb and running away. But some brainwashed radical can and will die for the cause.

EdgarusQPFC Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 Trying and failing to keep away from this and get some sleep, usually these kind of incidents don't phase me too much because its becoming a more common occurrence, but the thought of it happening to a bunch of kids heading home from a concert is really sickening me.

If it was a nail bomb you would assume the shrapnel wouldnt just be at leg level Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hellbhoy Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 You can bet that there will be plenty of doors getting battered down in the next few hours when the police raid any known or suspected terrorists they think could have been involved with kids being targeted. This attack is only going make our counter terrorism response show how much they will want to have someone or others in custody as soon as possible.

DrewDon Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 Tragic news. Tommy Robinson can get to f**k, though. He doesn't care one jot about these victims, his only concerns are generating his own publicity and entrenching fear and division. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate to admit it but he does have a point though, if it does in fact turn out to be a IS coordinated terror attack aimed at children then the people will understandably be outraged, the UK is very right leaning at the moment and they will want blood, plus Trump has already shown he has no concerns over bombing other countries when it comes to attacks against kid's so i cant see him taking this lying down either. If this isn't handled well it could be the start of something. I have no idea what the correct way to handle this would be and honestly im rather glad im not in a position to cause right now i'm totally leaning into the "bomb them to kingdom come" attitude Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dominique Malonga Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 Tommy Robinson is a fucking idiot, nothing more nothing less.I've seen friends(genuinely good people) share his Facebook posts while writing shite like "spot on" "he's the only one that says what we're thinking" etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
