Wow, you are truly one crude, cruel, myopic POS.


I am saying that the first responders have all the training. We really do not have that much since we do not have bombs here in the state. What I meant is that the UK have a longer history of infighting between the Protestants and the Catholics to a point of violence. Yes, it would be a shock, but not uncommon for the country.

They (isis, etc) probably figured shooting up an Eagles of Death Metal concert in Paris wasn't good enough. Target a place with a lot of tween and teens in the audience to ratchet up the fear factor.

Hundred bucks says the bomber(s) was on several "watch lists" and known to authorities, but roamed free anyhow.

I can't imagine dropping off my kids when they were young teens to concert and this event happening and then having to wait to hear if they are ok. My prayers are going out for those parents along with the dead and injured. Current count is 19 dead and 50 injured. sure those numbers will keep changing. Time to just turn Isis areas to glass.

What do you all make of this? Real or fake? I've usually got a pretty good sense for this stuff, but this one is a total WTF to me.

A second explosive device has been found in or near the arena that will be exploded in a controlled explosion. This could have been worse it seems. Time to bring hell on earth to whoever did this.

That's what's so difficult. Who do you bring hell to?

Bastard was probably a U.K. born young male of [enter far flung Mideast country] decent. Probably had a college degree.

I wish they all had uniforms and we can duke it out on a battlefield. But what do you do when they're dinky anonymous cells living in flats and houses in nearly every major city in Europe (thx Merkel).

I was leaning that way, but was baffled that someone would actually post something like that.

When will the UK say, enough is enough?!? Whatever they are doing in Europe to stop this, it isn't working. The people need to stand up and demand more than just Brexit.

And makes the security measures that American sporting events (metal detectors, no bags, only small clear bags, etc ) reasonable.

At Georgia, women have to carry clear purses now. They can't bring in regular purses.

Well, I just heard someone say on a news broadcast covering this terrible terrorist attack, "One thing is for sure, Europe has showed us Americans on what not to do in the fight against terrorism."

Keep people who can indoctrinate them in radical jihad from coming in direct contact with them in their homeland.
