    Dreadful, typically cowardly act - and again by a creep who won't even see the results of his act!

    This has got to be the lowest that even IS can sink to. Surely, even they, now must be feeling immense regret coming to the realisation that they have murdered an 8 year old as well as 21 other children in this low & despicable attack. Let us also not forget those that have been injured, potentially fatally as well.

    I can only offer words of condolence to the victims & words of condemnation to those behind this.

    R.I.P Manchester Children !!

    its a new low even for Islamic State t-e-r-r-or ists , they prove once again exactly why they will forever be known as the s*** of the earth !!
    Its not the first time they target music events either .
    all I.S Attacks seem to be done deliberate enuff for attention seeking Suicide freaks to grab the max amount of media attention and two attacks in a fairly short space of time [ London & Manchester ] is quite a worry and its almost impossible to stop a single attacker coming out of nowhere ,
    but i just hope one of these parasite vermin I.S t-e-r-r-or ists s can get caught and some information extracted from him/her regarding plans for future attacks that may be preventable .

    One factor in psychology, is that MOST humans enjoy/strive being 'liked' - so again this renders these creeps as totally bucking THAT 'trend' in what they actually feel they may achieve!

    Maybe by being loathed by the rest of us as being considered the s*** of the earth, they have achieved their warped objectives - yet their lack of respect for both THEIR own love/blessings for having life at all - after all we only get ONE chance at that, whatever THEY may believe - surely leaves so much to be desired?

    I was told yesterday a friend of mine's daughter and her friend were caught up in the blast in Manchester Arena,
    but very, very lucky only have a few scrathes and bruises.
    My heart goes out to the families of the deceased and injured.

    A group of people have just killed 22 innocent people in the name of their religion in the UK, talking around the known facts will be almost impossible in this thread.

    Its clear enough in the rules end of the day this is a sat forum if it cant be kept half sensible then the topic will be deleted.

    Anything that switches to religion or politics always goes the same way down hill fast .

    Maybe it would now be better to close this thread anyway guys - wonder how our colleague traveller would feel about this - we have surely also paid our condolences too at this SUCH sad time as started by him?

    Closed.
    I feel the same as any human would for loss of life. Just wish we could all get on together.
