Re: Breaking news of an "explosion" at Manchester Arena
Sounds like it may have been something to do with the railway near the arena.

19 dead.
Possibly a suicide bomber inside the arena.

Re: Breaking news of an "explosion" at Manchester Arena
At a concert full of kids ffs, absolute scum
-
Re: Breaking news of an "explosion" at Manchester Arena
All terrorist attacks are vile but this one is particularly unsavoury noting the amount of children there & the device detonating at around the time the concert finished. Many thousands of people went out last night to enjoy themselves but sadly at least 19 will not be returning home. My thoughts are with all of those affected by this.

I couldn't work out how they even get a bomb in the arena but it was said it was just outside

I think it's very, very hard to stop something like this if someone is determined to commit such atrocities.
I can only agree with the comments about the age of most of the victims - more parents outliving their children I'm afraid.
Commiserations to all who knew those who killed.

Agreed. It's made me think twice about going into town for the CL final, and that's exactly what they're intending in a sense.

Re: Breaking news of an "explosion" at Manchester Arena
This is barbaric, poor innocent kids for **** sake, it's heartbreaking.
Im fearing like **** for Cardiff next weekend, biggest club sporting event in the world in a tiny city. Hope these ***** are stopped.

Re: Breaking news of an "explosion" at Manchester Arena
Its a wicked targetting of children. Sadly this was inevitable.
-
Re: Breaking news of an "explosion" at Manchester Arena
Another attack where they'll lose far more followers.
Well done.

Things like a major event like the final will be fine with the amount of security in place. They'll keep going for soft targets like the one last night. Terrible stuff.

Don't want to sound horrible and callous but disagree. This is such an extreme group there'll be no marginals

They want to put fear into people and intimidate them but they picked on the wrong city.
Thoughts go out to all affected.

I mean in a wider sense.
Many jihadist groups have disowned them haven't they?.
For people in Asia that look at them quite favourably I don't think attacks of this kind will be a benefit to them.
Saying that though, they've killed children and families before and here we are.
It is going to be so sad when they release the photos of the victims.

Re: Breaking news of an "explosion" at Manchester Arena
I have always felt the exit at these events is open to all kinds of risks , as the doors open early and people can gain entrance , it make me so angry , and so so sad, for these poor families , the world is becoming horrible place .
Manchester has suffered a lot over the years, including the Irish troubles, and the 1996 atrocity.

Re: Breaking news of an "explosion" at Manchester Arena
someone on another forum was at the concert with his 2 daughters, he said the panic was really scary
they stayed overnight in a hotel
his daughters have said they do not want to go to another concert ever
:frown: how sad
-
Re: Breaking news of an "explosion" at Manchester Arena
RIP all those innocent victims.
What a dreadful thing for all of the families to have to cope with and
live with for the rest of their lives.

Re: Breaking news of an "explosion" at Manchester Arena
This morning I'm seeing on Twitter and Facebook the pictures of teenage girls that have died at a music show, watching an artist they love. I never cry, but this morning is different, it's truly shocking.

Seems this may be how the nutter got in.
Blast was in foyer at end of concert.
Apparently, it could have been worse as the singer went back on stage to do another song, so many stayed/went back inside.
RIP to those innocents who died.

heard 2 people on the news say that they have NO bag search as they went in, surely in todays world, we need bag searches at any sized events, even airport style screening
though of course as discussed on here in the past, the queues would just build up and that becomes a target :angry:

I thought they would have security? The O2 has security and they tell people to arrive in good time
Anyways, this is too shocking, this is so crazy like a concert is a place where you are meant to enjoy the night, make a few new friends, basically have a good time, not to be killed. RIP

You should see their propaganda videos. Plenty of marginals out there, especially if you watch alot of those videos.

I thought about this. 3 approaches out there.
The Corbyn - try to talk to them, make them political
The May/Cameron - Do nothing
The Trump - Bomb the **** out of them and get mideast countries to help too.
Not sure any are good ideas.

Re: Breaking news of an "explosion" at Manchester Arena
How long will it be before some right wing nutters will take "revenge"?
-
Re: Breaking news of an "explosion" at Manchester Arena
Speaking of nutters BBC are reporting people faking that they have lost a loved one in order to get " likes " or " hits " on
Facebook and Twitter.
What is wrong with some people ?

Kids are doing it to get popular. If i found out my kid was doing that I'd be horrified
