Current Affairs Stabbing incident in Southport

[Rita_Poon]

At moments like these, I appreciate that little bit more the tightness of the gun laws in the uk. I can remember Dunblane like it was yesterday.
Those poor children, the parents will be besides themselves in grief and horror. I do so genuinely hope there's no one dead.

Cant even fathom how you attack a nursery.

I think it’s year 2 - year 6 rather than 2-6 year olds.

It was a holiday yoga class.

Does feel as though the world is becoming progressively less stable/more and more evil.

Absolutely. Just had this conversation with my dad. We are literally spiralling down.

Absolutely awful the more you read.

It's going to be more and more common unfortunately.

Nothing. Details have been rightly limited. The point was around the likelihood of something like this happening (and it happening in the future).

Mrs K is a paramedic, not on duty today but some of her colleagues are, truly sickening and heartbreaking what I'm hearing. A dear old friend of mine has a saying " I'm glad I'm on the road out and not the one in " Never a truer word in this cruel world we live in today.

FFS.

Another broader point...

If you are thinking how you can practically help. Blood shortages in the UK are currently low.



Give blood where you can.

I cant get my head around a group of innocent kids going to the nursery community place without a care in the world,

Their parents probably having a coffee or off to work without a care in the world and then.........

Not sure it's going to turn anytime soon either.

Labour releasing prisoners earlier because the jails are too full.

Last two times I've tried, they've said my blood is common as muck so sod off.

Well, I'd maybe give it another go. Type O is the most common and it's currently running low.

In the queue mate.

Suspect they'll say the same.

Beyond comprehension, it truly is.

I have a 9 year old who goes to summer camps in the school holidays. The thought of what's happened makes me feel sick.

Those poor, poor people.
