Re: London is being bombed
Just thought I let you know that I am fine.
I live 1.6 miles away from Liverpool St Station. (I had a few texts asking if I'm ok)
The bus that blew up was a bus number 30 that goes through Hackney.
Yup. My borough.
My grandmother heard the blast, she lives near Warren St / Euston Square station.
It is all sad.
(Reason why I'm hardly posting is because my internet doesn't work )

Re: London is being bombed
a friend of my ex saw the bus explode.
I was sitting in a bar in southern spain when the news came on...
Can´t say i was shocked that London was targetted. hopefully there won´t be too much overreation. If ID cards get brought in because of this i will be pissed off.

Re: London is being bombed
well given that at least three, possibly all four of the bombers were suicide bombers, we can reduce the death toll to 49, possibly 48, since shits like that don't count.

Re: London is being bombed
Who knows, if it was a suicide attack I'd have to guess if they were turned into a mist. If big city air wasn't dirty enough now you possibly have 100 parts per million radical muslim mixed in.

Re: London is being bombed
Just want to say it was great to see all the people observing the two minutes silence
Everyone stopped working in newcastle and you could have heard pin drop in city centre, and i'm sure it was like that all across the UK
Just glad people did show some respect, allot of minutes silences like on remembrance day are interrupted by some ignorant tosser on a mobile
Nice to see anyway

lollllll
Would be satisfying but I get the feeling that in real life Yahwe might not be such a big man without that big rep too back him up.
Anyways, it is good harmless banter on here. I'm sure he is a lot nicer in real life !!!!!

Re: London is being bombed
I always find moments of silence uncomfortable.
Other than just remaining silent for some length of time (not an easy task for some of us) what are you supposed to do?
I'm not religious so saying a prayer is out.
I usuallly don't know the person or people who are the object of the moment of silence so I can't remember things about them.
Am I supposed to bow my head and act as though I am praying?
Perhaps stare at a flag or some such?
What I generally do is stand relatively still, fidget uncomfortably and think "don't scream, don't scream."
I am truly saddened by the loss of life in London as I was saddened by the loss of life in New York and as I am saddened by the loss of life in Iraq but I haven't hit on a fitting way of expressing that sadness.

Well you must have been slightly interested to notice How often I said 'I agree' . The thing is, when I actually do agree with a comment, it is a bit tough to say anything else. Maybe ' I concur'..... or a simple yes ?
But if You don't care what I say why mind how I have a conversation with someone on a topic you have no interest?

I feel the same, and was discussing this with some friends of mine. The "difference" with this particular one compared to previous ones I have observed is that we went outside (it was a very nice) and stood out on the street when it happened. I found that aspect of today's silence interesting since even out in suburbia where I work there were hundreds of people on the street. But overall I suppose most people don't have any other way of displaying these things.

Re: London is being bombed
I wonder when the SECRET organisation of al quaeda in Europe (ssshh it's a secret by the way) will give a press release admitting that they are shit and screwed up, and Allah will pour boiling lead in their ears for being crap and that their latest bombers have shown themselves up to be nothing more than a bunch of cowards who run away and hide, just like daddy bin laden.

True, but my housemates were more irate that the person whose bomb failed to detonate properly was just allowed to get off the tube and run away, rather than say, being given a jolly good kicking.
This is a guy who just tried to kill you and the rest of the carriage after all.

Re: London is being bombed
That is a general problem.
People (in general) do tend to get shocked and paralysed. Not long ago three men kicked another man to death here in Stockholm. Dozens of witnesses, noone did anything.
He had told them not to piss on the street. That's what you get IF you show any courage whatsoever.

good point. most people would probably be worried about the thing going off still though, and if the guy had anything else on him (or the more basal worry of simply not wanting anything to happen to them).
I wonder how I would have reacted. I hope I would have broken his arms and legs and tortured him a bit.
Yahwe might disapprove but the court case would be fascinating. Imagine being on assault and GBH charges with the entire country thinking you are a hero.

Probably nonsense, but there is a claim that police have shot someone near Stockwell.
edit : The BBC story has now been changed and that does seem to be what has happened. Oh well.

Mr Whitby, told BBC News: "I saw an Asian guy run onto the train hotly pursued by three plain-clothes police officers.
"One of them was carrying a black handgun - it looked like an automatic - they pushed him to the floor, bundled on top of him and unloaded five shots into him."

Unloaded five shots into him. Maybe they thought he was carrying some explosives which he was about to detonate?

Godwin's Law thus practically guarantees the existence of an upper bound on thread length in those groups. However there is also a widely- recognized codicil that any intentional triggering of Godwin's Law in order to invoke its thread-ending effects will be unsuccessful.
