These freak shows can attack me, even personally and always get away with it. They know it too. Meanwhile I get suspended/banned for making general statements about Trump cult members as a group. That is how this site rolls, I guess.

I'm sorry. Did I miss the bit when this became a thread about Trump and your relationship with this website?

Fox is saying it was outside at the box office. Outside security but witnesses are saying they don't have pat downs or metal detectors at the arena.

Ok a little off topic but...whoever decided to give Tucker Carlson his own show is an idiot.

I haven't watched Fox News in awhile but this is the worst decision they've made since they gave Shep Smith his own show.

Continuing off topic @txradioguy At least he dumped the bow tie.

Second intact device confirmed.

This concert was indeed a very "soft" target-many young people. Cowardly b@st@rds.

No, you missed the 3 or 4 personal attacks on me by piles of excrement

@driftdiver

It's baffling they didn't have better security. Every concert I've been to has had patdowns or metal detectors.

Why not just go back, edit your original post and add a statement that you thought this was a needless panic over a bursting balloon or speaker (per early reports) and not a terrorist act.
Yes, I saw that someone jumped you AFTER there were more facts and tried to imply you were joking (knowingly) about a terrorist incident, and that was a cheap shot. It would be appropriate for all parties to quit mucking up the thread with a kerfuffle when the OP is a serious matter. Please.

@chae

I agree But fox is saying it occurred outside. So There was a police presence but no searches. Apparently the intent was to hit the people as they left the concert.

So far, it appears as though the explosion occurred outside. Witness on Sky News was leaving concert with daughter just before conclusion and staff directed her another way to leave. Explosion happened in area where she was originally heading.

I didn't think anything, I was speculating based on having no evidence at the time. This is obvious to anyone with 2 braincells to rub together, so there is no need to go back and edit anything.

Why? I used to find him quite good, when I watched.

He doesn't like that fact that Tucker gives Trump a fair shake! Nothing more!

I'm my professional opinion...he's only good off the teleprompter.

Right now he's doing live and unscripted and he's horrible at it.

It's a talent that some have and some don't.

He don't.

Second device apparently a bag of clothing. False rumors of another device and a gunman at a hospital.

Death and carnage at Ariana Grande concert in London tonight. Chances are reasonably good you're wondering "Who's Ariana Grande?" (because you're over 19 years of age). She's a pro-refugee, pro-muslim, Trump-hating, America-hating, pu**y-hat-wearing, 'Women's March' organizing, flaming leftwing Hollywood liberal who is no doubt in a hotel room right now surrounded by armed security and suddenly wishing she was back in the safety of the America she hates so much.
