There will be many families devastated by this attack and I doubt if they care what the motive was, only that they lost a child.

What I find terribly disturbing is that whoever did this targeted teen and pre-teen girls, the main type of Ariana Grande fan likely to be at her concert. Their parents were outside waiting to take their daughters home from what was likely something their little girls had been looking forward to for months. Traumatized or dead is how they will leave this event.

There has to be a better way.

What do you have against white people?

That's a pretty racist thing to say.

That Trump went spaghetti noodle with the Muslims make him look all the more ridiculous.
So you are saying Trump can't talk to Obama or the majority of congress (in each party) that approved of Obama's plan of assisting moderate rebels (ISIS)?!?!

Agree. This really is like targeting children.

You don't want this to be a partisan issue, but you make a soft-racist post.

This is already horrific and this idea makes it so much worse. There really are some sick people in this world.

If this was terrorism (looks likely to me but unconfirmed), it was likely planned before Trump even went to SA. This type of stuff usually isn't hastily thrown together last minute.
