Saw it.

IDK....if I was her manager, I would've crafted a more official,

'mature' tweet....especially of the severity of the incident. 

 


Her manager, Scooter Braun, just released a more professional statement.....glad he did


Who?

If she can't intelligently come up with the words, she should at least

re-tweet Scooter's message to her 45million followers, but...

as of this writing, nope.  

 

I don't have a dog-in-the-hunt...I could take her/leave her, but

she's forced into the spotlight since it was her concert.  

Not having her produce a more official 'mature' statement is disappointing,

but her fan base probably can't understand the severity of the incident,

so why should she?

I'm reading that ISIS is claiming credit for this.

Of course they did but did y'all ever notice that when the perpetrator survives they generally make no claims. 

 

I do believe most of these attacks are ISIS inspired but only a few are ISIS trained and backed.

While babies are innocent, the fantasy that children 12 to 14 are innocent is belied by the numerous well founded reports of bullying that is prevalent in every school and neighborhood. Teens kill, vandalize, steal, cheat... Decent people behave decently in all situations.

Of course the incident isn't about Ariana Grande but I remember the donut licking episode and her snotty entitled behavior.  

 

I don't really expect her to think much about anyone but herself here, no matter what her PR people say.

 

That said, I like some of her music.  She does have a lot of talent.

Last night I was watching an interview with a mother, her daughter's name is Olivia Campbell and she is missing.Fifteen years old.It was so gut wrenching and heartbreaking.

 

I just read that the eight year old girl who was missing is now confirmed to be dead.

Sad state of the world.  So tragic.  All those young innocent lives lost to deranged monsters.  Soon we will all have to wear body armour just to get groceries.

Must say i really don't understand why it matters who was putting on the concert, and those not understanding that young getting killed is just a horrible thing that they  ,were hurt, childhood  should not include this,in any way.

When you lose some one you L~O~V~E, that Memory of them, becomes a TREASURE.
