Re: Confirmed fatalities

Did I hear that right just now? Sky news reporting a second explosive device has been found by police (undetonated, presumably?)

The video showing the teens running down the stairs with the older people just standing there, those are the parents waiting to pick up their kids. That is how young they are. Sorry for the run on sentence.

Wrong is still wrong just because you benefited from it.

reports of a suicide bomber.  why?  if the reporting is true, why target teens?


 

If you have to ask this, you don't understand terrorists/terrorism.

 

They want us to be afraid (as well as dead) and we westerners treasure and value our young people and our children most. They are the perfect target, but people don't seem to understand that.


attacking teens and kids - a new low.  but if it is terrorism remember some of these groups do use kids as suicide bombers and even worse.  barbaric.

It's bugging me that they keep saying this targeted children. It wasn't Barney Live for crying out loud.  Yes, children were there - but children are at sporting events and on planes too. This wasn't a new low for the terrorists, it was business as usual.

That post wasn't directed at you @ms traditional - I hadn't even read your post when I posted. My post was in response to the television.

It is a hideous act to target young people enjoying a night out 

Stop being afraid of what could go wrong and start being positive what could go right.
