This is why they will never defeat us - in the midst of horror, we rise up to help each other...

Horrible hearing of parents phoning around hospitals or just searching the area for the children they haven't found yet

I think every sane person will have the murdered and their loved ones in their thoughts and be hoping that the death toll won't rise.

The misguided **** who do this believe they will bring the worst out in people and create turmoil when in fact their actions bring out the best in society. They will never change our way of life - their worst will never defeat our best.

RIP to all the children and decent people who were murdered in Manchester.

I heard on the radio that lots of nuts and bolts were strewn everywhere. That means only one thing: it was a Claymore device, intended as an antipersonnel weapon.

Those things are horrible enough when used against soldiers in officially declared conflicts. There are no words to describe stooping so low as to use them against children.

Anyone want to hazard a guess as to which group this madman almost certainly belonged? Clue: it starts with an I.

When are these idiots going to learn? British people are not intimidated by "terrorism" - the IRA didn't accomplish anything with such acts and neither will these nutters - we don't get scared. We get ANGRY. :mad:

Perhaps they know of the 2nd bomb tactic where crowds run from one bomb straight into another?

Probably not but it's the correct thing to do: Stay put or run the other way to the masses.

Just had a phone call from my son. The Arndale Centre is being evacuated. I hope this is just over vigilance and not a second incident. I can't stop sobbing, so many innocent victims already.
