Trafalgar Square Vigil

[emmie]

for those who lost their lives and those injured. How many more will e
have to suffer i wonder.

You always seem to want to make a dig, naomi and maybe in your haste you don't read things properly. I answered the question "how many more will have to suffer". Assuming emmie means deaths due to terrorism we don't know of course but the best guess based on historical figures/trends is that the numbers will stay about the same.
So what is your answer to the question, naomi, apart from having a dig at me and Islay?

[237SJ]

Thank you for that, Mamyalynne. But as I said, I was driving 200 miles back from the SW today and wasn't in a position to be looking at the internet at 9am and adjusting my schedule accordingly.

237
the vigil is going on now as far as i can see.

[emmie]

ff
how many more vigils will we attend, sorry that wasn't clear.

[Mamyalynne]

I understand 237.

[237SJ]

I don't live in Central London emmie

[emmie]

sorry..

[fiction-factory]

Noted emmie. There will probably be one whenever there is an atrocity. Hopefully the atrocities will stop but history and the social/religious/ terrorism climate suggests they will continue. Attempts may increase but hopefully the intelligence forces will keep pace with them.
Hopefully no-one will lower themselves to a sarcastic "Oh, well. That's alright then. What a relief!" comment this time

ff I have read through the whole thread twice now and can discern no evidence that Naomi has, as you put it, had a dig at you or Islay. No one takes offence as readily as those who are willing and eager to be offended.

[fiction-factory]

Maybe you didn't read the sarcastic comment made to me or the comments made to Islay. I'll leave you to reread them and see what you want to see Togo

Thanks, Emmie....I didn't know about the vigil.....

How many more will have to suffer, you wonder ....wouldn't it be wonderful if we could, one day soon, say none.......x

[emmie]

gness
one can only hope.

[237SJ]

There is no point in hoping for that because it is not going to happen.

[emmie]

then we have to hope the security services are up to the job of protecting us all.

[237SJ]

Yes, and the public need to be vigilant and not become complacent

[gness]

Emmie....I'll keep hoping too because the day I stop hoping will be the day I stop caring.....x

[237SJ]

You can hope as much as you like but these people aren't going to go away in your lifetime.

Q. How many more will have to suffer i wonder.

A. Many more if the hatred towards innocent muslims continue!



Am I the only one puzzled by this?
If people are nice to Muslims when a Muslim kills innocent people ... the killings and the suffering will stop?

The woman wasn't directly trolled a few idiot Twitterers used her image in photo-shopped scenarios.

[Togo]

Careful Talbot.........that's interpreted as having a dig, or horrid sarcasm doncha know.

[fiction-factory]

Sometimes called bullying. (No one takes offence as readily as those who are willing and eager to be offended" - that's the excuse some bullies give at school.
As it happens I don't fully agree with what Islay said, nor do I agree that you have translated her statement correctly. Where did Islay say the killings would stop? She just said they would continue.Did you misread/misinterpreted it or have I missed something.
