Making some multicultural statements
About how we'll carry on. :-D
Seconded.
"rot in jail", "pull his toenails out" etc etc is just as much as destraction as "the internet is to blame". Whatever we do with this guy, it won't change the future.
The mindset of the terrorist is very similar to that of the common criminal. They will actively exploit any loophole or weakness within the system in order to aid themselves or their cause. A weak system, or one which can be easily exploited for criminal/terrorist purposes is always an ally to those who seek to do us harm.
Nothing anyone here has said has done anything to weaken my stance that known terrorists/sympathisers/supporters should be detained. Certainly the past few attacks would never have happened had this been the case.
I don't care about the human rights of the terrorist, I care about the rights of the ordinary citizen to go about their lawful business free from danger.
UPDATE : at least 20 dead and over 100 injured.
Individual with a gun.
The shooter's GF is still on the run, it seems.
I hope he suffered when he was shot.
One wonders what was playing in that man's mind. Retribution? Securing a place in history? A political statement? Either way, shocking as hell.
Do we have any idea what he was shooting for?
At least 50 people have been killed and another 200 have been wounded in a mass shooting at a Las Vegas concert.
A gunman, named as 64-year-old local resident Stephen Paddock, opened fire from the 32nd floor of the Mandalay Bay Hotel towards an open-air music festival.
He was shot dead by officers in the hotel where a number of guns were found.
The attack is the worst mass shooting in recent US history.
US President Donald Trump tweeted his "warmest condolences and sympathies" to the victims and their families, and called the shooting "terrible".
Sheriff Joe Lombardo described the shooting as a "lone wolf" attack. He said there was no information about Paddock's motives.
"We have no idea what his belief system was," he said.
He added that police were now confident they had located a woman, earlier named as Marilou Danley, who was thought to have been travelling with the gunman before the attack.
Sheriff Lombardo said he was unable to give accurate details of dead and wounded, but confirmed two off-duty police officers were among those killed.
And the injured count has apparently raised to 200+, while the mortality figure has jumped to 50+.
Says it all about where are these days. Back in the days of Hungerford, Dunblane and Columbine the perpetrators of such acts were just labelled common or garden mentalists.
Now they are expected to have a 'belief system' which 'justifies' their actions and we cant just say they are mentally ill because then that would be calling out religion as the insidious cancer that is.
Also is it just me or is there a whiff of 'We are really hoping the guy is a Muslim' about the above statement?
EDIT: Well, actually kind of understandable in today's context. Guess we can only lament the fact that the world's become this way.
What are the odds of America waking the f-bomb up and introducing some sort of gun control? Less than Liverpool winning a CL and Prem double frankly.
It really would be laughable if so many people weren't dying day in day out.
