We manage perfectly fine to get into conflict without religion Groucho, that's a colossal cop out of an answer.
Being human is the cause of conflict, we all have different drives, beliefs, desires and motivators and conflict spirals out of that.

As I say, I'm not sure this is really the time or place to be calling things a 'collosal cop out'.

Beeb claiming IS have admitted it was behind that attack. Hopefully the ground that they call their state decides to swallow them up.

'A lot is being done about it' right, whats that then?

Well, as an American, we've invaded two countries, and spent trillions of dollars, and created vast security governmental agencies to try and deal with it.

Some might argue that our actions have only intensified the problem.

Let's discuss this in the other thread and leave this one to shed a tear for those innocent kids who just wanted to go to a concert and lost their lives.

This has made me so upset and angry at the same time.

I don't know what the answer is to this sort of thing. Honestly no idea.

8 years old, having the time of her life seeing her hero. It's unbearable.

Rarely do I get upset, but this whole thing has really hit me hard, particularly having kids between 6-12.. Unimaginable sadness.

I think World War 1 was.

Honestly it wasn't mate, assassination of a head of state at a time when War was already perceived as an inevitability is a whole lot different

Anyway, it's not really the time or place for that.

Yeah I changed my mind posting that. Thought I'd deleted it sorry..

Still can't believe it.. My younger sister loves Arianna Grande and wanted to go.. So relieved we never got tickets.

So sad.. Thoughts with everyone affected by this x

Had a sick feeling all day after hearing this news, two girls I work and worked with were there last night, one is only 17/18. Both thankfully made it home safe but both shaken up, my friend Katie is a regular in the city as her boyfriend lives there and she came into work this morning almost in a numb state of mind having not slept because of what happened as she was at the MEN only a couple of weeks back for a Green Day gig

It just seems so senseless to me, what goes through these people's heads to want to cause so much heartbreak and suffering to innocent people?
