Unfortunatly in the UK we know terrorism, we have a history of it. This is a terrible blow for a wonderful city and the vast multicultural society that exists in it. I fear reprisals on our muslim populations here. Love goes out to everyone. Im still checking all my friends are ok, Shoreditch mainly...

I'm probably going to get panned for this but I'm sick of hearing about people who could have been hurt in the blast had x,y or z circustance been different. Real people were hurt and killed - you weren't, so get back to work. Rant here: http://www.clandillon.com/blog/2…

Taking into account what you said jevad...
Keeping peaceful and calm seems to be the major quality of everyone who had the misfortune to be caught up in yesterdays attack. Lets hope this attitude continues as we try to make sense of it all.
My thanks go out to everyone who lent a hand to make the situation a little less painfull, especially to the Emergency services who responded quickly, effectively.
The people of London are in safe hands...
Thankyou

*pan ;)
it's a perfectly natural way for people to relate the tragedy to their lives, and a perfecty reasonable expression of how random and unjust that tragedy was. No offence mr ming, just my opinion, peace mate :)

that's a bit harsh phil.
part of the trauma of this is that it COULD have been any of us, the indiscriminate nature of the killings and the empathy we feel for those who could have been us but for something stupid like going to work early or sleeping through an alarm, is a coping mechanism to deal with this tragedy.
i'm glad you're ok.

(Jul 8 05, 03:49)What's wrong with thanking lucky stars you weren't killed? I think peoples realisation that it could be them is a great thing... the world takes on a different hue.
Dunno man. It seems a little arrogant to put that up, not to mention the hostile tone.... we could at least do without that.
- mrming0
It probably is a bit harsh, and I'm certainly not criticising those who literally had a narrow escape. It's a valid point that it could have happened to anyone. I just think it's a bit disrespectful to those that were really hurt and killed to get on your own personal melodrama trip about it all.
- vespa0
but everyone's got their own way of dealing with a situation that is impossible to rationalise. mrming is angry, i don't blame him
- mrming0
I'm probably not the world's most tolerant person to be fair - practically everything winds me up...

i do know what you mean mrming but i think it's just a coping mechanism people have - yesterday a young translator here was on the phone and she was huffing and puffing and gossiping and i was getting really pissed off, had to stop myself from turning round and saying "fucks sake! i'm TRYING to get on with my WORK!!" it's just stress is all
