A brutal attack against thousands of English children.
I have never listened to reporters speak about something for so long without absolutely no information. Sky News is great! Well, the police are calling this terrorism, but without telling what happened. nail bomber, suicide bomber, falling PA who knows? But this is England, the event and perp must be on camera from multiple viewpoints |

some dipshit with a bomb blows himself up near the exit of the ariana grande concert. ISIS releases a statement saying they take credit for the attack but their descriptions of the attack do not match what happened (they state that multiple of their people hit multiple attacks). I do not see the political or terror or propaganda benefits to anyone of bombing a children's music concert. makes no sense. benefits no one.

I think in this case there was a link, or at least the person doing it supported ISIS, even if they may not have actually been behind it. This Tweet came out about 4hrs before the attack actually happened. ![]() |

I'm disgusted by this. I can't think of anything snarky or even intelligent to say. People just being slaughtered for being people. It's happened before, it's happening again, and my hunch is that it will keep happening.
What's the long-haul end of this? Because I don't see one. I see a possible World War III, but I can't quite determine who would be involved in the war or what it would be about because the world is such a fundemantelly broken place in so Many ways. Long-haul... what's this leading to? Totalitarianism? Global nuclear warfare? 1984 or Fahrenheit 451? Really, this isn't going away. Long after Trump, will this still be happening? Who the fuck would have predicted an Ariana Grande concert would be a target? If that tweet was published FOUR HOURS before the concert started, then why was this even given a chance to happen? |

Its about establishing fear, pure and simple, making people afraid to engage in any public activity. And it is possible, like last week's Times Square allegedly PCP-smoking killer, that it was a test to observe the authority's response. A devastating test. Baader-Meinhof thought it was a good idea to provoke the violent arm of the State, to force it to show it's "true" face, the result seems to be troops on the streets. Have they moved armed forces to Parliament in London? It also makes people xenophobic and ready to indulge in the worst behavior, so the nonfundie muslims get attacked - they fundies probably froth in anger at the muslims in the West who do not follow their twisted imamic interpretations. |

A woman said: "I know my son is dead
I'll never rest my hands on his sacred head" Oh Manchester, so much to answer for "Oh, find me, find me! Find me!" "I'll haunt you when you laugh Oh, I'll haunt you when you laugh You might sleep You might sleep You might sleep BUT YOU WILL NEVER DREAM! Oh, you might sleep BUT YOU WILL NEVER DREAM! You might sleep BUT YOU WILL NEVER DREAM!"

I think this is the first time; the previous one was a Morrissey solo song and it was in a FAR jollier context.

Oh, you're right. That was Morrissey. I don't meant to negate the mega-seriousness of this situation, but Smiths/Morrissey quotes always kinda make me chuckle. I like the Smiths and solo Morrissey, but when you pull that shit out of context and plop it into another context, it always makes for a dark bit of hilarity. #sorry |

"Suedehead" can be funny. I don't think there's anything fucking funny about "Suffer Little Children". For which, by the way, The Smiths and SPM in particular took a LOT of shit back in the day. From Wikipedia: Quote:
File it next to "Born In The U.S.A." (released that same year, coincidentally) as one of the most misunderstood songs in the history of everything. By the way, Ian Brady died just a week ago aged 79. Hindley died in 2002 at 60. I'd like to think Satan is torturing the fuck out of them both, but I don't believe in such malarkey.

I honestly can't tell if you love or hate The Smiths/Morrissey right now.

in one of the most heavily surveilled country in the world, the police and security services missed at least five opportunities over five years to stop the Manchester mass murderer from carrying out his deadly terror attack, it has emerged. <edit>
The reports date back five years, when two youth workers are said to have phoned an anti-terrorism hotline to report concerns over Adebi’s “extreme views” whilst he was completing his last year at school, the BBC has reported. Two of Abedi’s friends were also so concerned about his behaviour that they separately phoned the hotline, five years ago, and again in 2016. |
