I haven't heard of any attacks in New Zealand.

But I don't like the attitude of get used to it.

I'm sure condemnation is really valuable to those that were brutally murdered.

not really. by him not buying tickets in future as well as others it could force security companies to up their game at such events.

the people that work security at most public events aren't competent in the slightest

Security was not at fault this time. He detonated in the foyer, as people were leaving.
 
Katie Hopkins needs to be given no press. I know this is a very emotional time and I cried this morning for the dead children but I don't think tweeting that all Muslims in the uk need to be gassed and exterminated is going to help.

Which makes the security useless. What's the point in checking people going in before the start and then don't check people going in at the end?

Interesting point. Is there perhaps a chance the bomber was aware of this?
 
Absolutely terrible :(

An interesting read: https://www.buzzfeed.com/jimwaterson/manchester-arena-fake-news?utm_term=.vyq5O3no2#.shB6jLGKm

I stumbled across a facebook profile of the mum of one of the missing children. There were around 2k comments, 75% from people pasting the exact message about the children being at the holiday inn. I can't understand this, I clicked on a few and they seemed to be genuine profiles. Anyone commenting could see the other comments saying exactly the same thing.

I read that and i must say that this incident does seem to have a lot of this fake news following this event. Not just standard misinformation from assumptions and vague interpretations but news seemingly started with the aim at causing panic and confusion. Things like fake reports of the deceased/missing.

Makes you wonder if this is part of modern terrorism now or if they are just trolls looking to get their jollies on from re-tweets. Regardless, of what motivates the original fake news posters to do this, the effect is the came and charges should be brought against them.

That still wouldn't prevent an attack, they would just detonate outside the main entrance. Point is the death toll would be much higher if the ******* got into the actual arena.
