Tsietisin posted:In not surprised there are not any camera phone pictures of any devastation. If there was any by now, I would have expected to see it. Ariana Grande has used yondr at gigs before so might have been using it for this one. Yondr is a pouch everyone is given to put their mobile phone into and the pouch seals inside the venue and only opens when you leave.

Can confirm the confused revolutionary man is still in bed and not the culprit. Seriously though the hospital I work at is half an hour away from Manchester centre, I wonder if they'll be redirecting to us.

Also, to add to the tragedy to the poor fatalities, and their families, May will be all over this to show 'strong and stable' It's a bunch of people in a confined area with constricted exit routes so you can maximise damage; I imagine anything else would be a bonus after that.

Chris Matthews of MSNBC was spreading a 20+ death count within moments of the "bombing" hitting twitter. I have no idea if NBC has people on the ground there now, just leaking loving everything or what, it's pretty awful.

If this was a terrorist, it's just probably helped create a government that will go after their country and countrymen with bombs.

Bit early to say its a terrorist attack. We don't even know if he was brown or not yet. For all we know it could just be a crazed, mentally troubled white man.
