No eagerness at all. Very judgemental of you. This is a very and sad event that makes you angry and I jumped to conclusions and fell for the Social media/Telegraph rubbish at posted it here. I apologized for any offence caused. No the "victim" wasn't what you call an "Immigrant" it was a son of two refugees. But why does it matter to you so much? It doesn't matter to me, my thoughts are with the children and the families right now Seems those thinking they're morally higher are showing the same hypocritical thinking and actions of what their judgement is to others and seem rather happy that the victim wasn't what the papers first reported. Making you look very bad right now. Bully tactics in my opinion (Sorry no qualifications in this subject either your royal highness) Well it did matter to you because you fell for your right wing bullshit and shared it proudly on here with the phrase surprise surprise. So you can pretend it didn't but the evidence is there for everyone to see it. It matters to me because I hate the idea of racists using a horrendous event like this to spout their propaganda and try to get hatred and anger towards immigrants all riled up. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferguson1 Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 I have a nine year old daughter and hearing more news today, I can’t imagine how people are that have been caught up in this? Truly awful and heartbreaking. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Truly awful and heartbreaking. Yeah, it's utterly horrific. I've got two daughters (6 and 4, so only one at school currently) and cannot fathom sending my eldest off for a summer school event for her to never return. Just so, so cruel. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The wife and I were discussing the same earlier re school, camps and social clubs and these things should be a safe haven for all to learn, play and have fun. I guess nowhere is completely safe but there is only so much cotton wool that you can wrap them up in I guess. Just a scary world that children of today are being brought up in and didn’t quite seem so scary in the 80s and 90s (My childhood/youth). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Truly awful and heartbreaking. There's no end to the pain for the parents of those poor children. That's why I always feel angry when people use words like "Closure" around tragedies such as yesterday's. It's impossible to forget something as horrific as that. And, I know that from looking in the eyes of any parent who has had to bury a child. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a scary thought indeed! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t fathom/comprehend it. Edited July 30 by ferguson1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NurembergVillan Posted July 30 Moderator Share Posted July 30 Guys, I'm not posting this as a moderator just as a human. Can we step beyond the point-scoring and remember kids have been murdered, please? The conversations being had are relevant but the insults and jibes aren't needed. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Keyblade Posted July 30 Popular Post Share Posted July 30 You have to step back and re-evaluate if your first inclination after young children were murdered is to go straight into culture war nonsense. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately this is what the media does to fuel the politics and sell papers. People fall for it hook line and sinker. It's a sad world we live in.
