Yes & then we talk about using it to unite us. Then I wonder If I have any tealights left over from the last job lot I bought. Apparently Islamists are repelled by tea lights & platitudes.
 
I made the mistake of looking at a Twitter video.

To me there will be more dead based on the few seconds I saw until I had enough. It does astonish me how someone can walk up and down people in obvious death knells and pain simply filming on their mobile phone. I will put it down to shock but to me their job is to put the phone down and do anything they can to help and comfort.

well seemingly a Jewish related target - so also an outside chance of it being right wing extremists rather than muslims extremists - I guess both the far right and muslims have people among them willing to drive vehicles into people as we've seen a few times now

yup, it is disgusting. Similar thing happened in the London Bridge attack, some gormless looking tourist just wandered around live streaming/filming victims while providing no assistance himself.

If people can film a guy while he drowns to death and not even lift a finger, I can only call it apathy. Mobiles have desensitised a lot of youth.
 
Horrible. Thoughts with those hurt and also with the loved ones of all victims.

Been a bit of trouble with anti-tourism protests recently in Barcelona.

Most places welcome the money that tourists bring. What is the rationale behind anti-tourism protests in Barcelona?

Anyone else have their head on swivel when walking around busy areas near roads these days? It's actually no longer paranoia, just smart.

No, because the chances of being killed in a terrorist attack are still ridiculously slim and will remain so even if the current rate of terrorist attacks increase dramatically.

I bet the people who died today or hurt take comfort in knowing that mate. The chances are slim, but the fact is that you never know when or where the next attack is gonna happen.

If you not taking sadiq khans advice that you should be extra careful, you might end up as the next victim.

I dare say most of the people killed and injured in a terrorist attack earlier would have agreed with you.
