Turn on the news and realise that the deaths where caused by a bloody explosion, stop trying to correct people when eye witnesses have said that an explosion has killed tens of people...

Lib dem leader using the word 'attack' - he know more than the rest of us.
Looking more mad more like a bomb.

That dash cam footage doesnt look like the roof

I didn't say it was, a woman on facebook posted it was an explosion.

Are you sure about that, because the stories that are starting to come out from people who were there are saying something different, like security guards turning people away from the lobby seconds before an explosion etc (Daily Mail report) so with no verified story yet it's a bit odd to claim you know whats happened isn't it?

Maybe not, but your guess is as good as mine just now. We'll find out tomorrow. I'm bowing out as it's bedtime.
No, but a guy saying he was looking through bodies to try and find his family seems to confirm it's an explosion....

Sorry misread your post.
What are you talking about?
Someone asked why is armed response there and I explained that armed response is there because bangs were heard. It's absolute basic logic.
What has that got to do with defending anything, and what exactly?
Armed police dragging someone out of a car

This is bizarre.
"We are closely monitoring the developments regarding the incident in #Manchester #ManchesterArena"
A tweet from "NYPDCounterterrorism".
wtf?
Also, how come british transport police are reporting it, yet manc' police aren't any more?

Just been doing some Googling trying to find this picture or mentions of a training exercise there but the only one mentioned like you say is Trafford Centre.
I'm beginning to think it may be real also. I'm sure we will find out in due course.
Prayers go out to everyone there.

Most likely. But I was replying to the posting of an image of a bomb disposal van. At that immediate point in time that image alone confirmed nothing. Anyway, more important things to concern ourselves with now.
bit more than 'bangs were heard' try an explosion and mass casualties/possible terror attack
Soldato
lol. Some of the biggest transformer failures in history havent resulted in a severe enough explosion to cause damage of this scale and that Arena will have nothing in comparison.
People are claiming they flew in the air, transformers dont do that. They generate heat and fire with the occasional small micro explosions often due to coil damage and none of that is instantaneous - your see it and be able to leg it.
