PANIC On the Street's of London?

Sorry for the lame title. Just heard of the bombs going off in London. Are all the London head's safe? Hope your all OK, it was mad panic in Manchester back in 96 when we got bombed on Market Street.

Hope y'all are safe.

 

Yeah, just wanted to express my concern for people too.

Appearantly there are at least 20 dead already.

Something like 3 bombs set off on the undergreound and 2 bus stations bombed.

Just got back from liverpool city centre and they had it on the big screen there. Everyone was just stood around shocked and in disbelief, it was crazy.

Hope all are safe and well.

 

most of the people i know are fine, should we bring back the death sentance for these terrorists now?

 

Yeah it was chaos. Missed the action by about 30 minutes (Come in to work via Algate east into liverpool st). There was tons of confusion and misreporting going on. I was fixing a copier in the FCO press office and they were still reporting it has a power surge around 11am (by this time scotland yard knew it was a bomb) work college saw the tavistock/russell sq bus blow up! he was about 100 yards away!. I walked to London bridge station and went home.
I'd guess the bombs were left in bags and not the cause of suicide bombers.
Still overall i'm impressed with how quickly the emergency services and transport dealt with the situation.
Many mobile networks were down, but i guess this is because the madrid bomb was remote detenated by phone.
This I fear is just the begining, certainly bomb scares are going to be a lot more frequent.
How do you fight an invisible enemy?
IRA was dealt with via diplomacy. bah i'm rambling, hope your all ok, Madin out.

 

I hope all the VFers in the U.K. are alright? B/C I personally take this shit very seriously since I knew alot of ppl who worked near the WTC. This really blows fo you guys since you just got the olympics.

 

I'm fine and so are my families that work in London. Man, they're really digging their own graves now aren't they. They're just asking for it.

 

im just pissed because now security in london is gonna be MUCH more hassle to the everyday commuter.

and now theyre definitly gonna bring ID cards in. not that these pointless things will amount to much.........

 

Was gonna walk to work, then it started raining.. /versus/images/graemlins/tongue.gif
All main roads closed, tesco still open though!
Couple of friends of mine just missed the train that blew up on e-road, close one! /versus/images/graemlins/ooo.gif

 

my first day back to work and this happened. anyway, i'm fine and i didn't realised what happened until i got to work. not sure what time the blast happened, must be during the time i was walking to work. good job i decided to walk and not to take the Underground or buses. pretty shitty right now and i guess this is the beginning of many terrible things to come.

 

I am OK..thk God,,to all those out there my hope goes out to all o'y'all and ur safety. Everyone kno seems to alright as well.....I hope this doesn't cause drastic political reactions (IMO I dont care bout ID cards). Most Importantly i hope the G8 summit carries out as normal.

 

my little sister had troubles getting home because of the tansport and closed off areas, for those who live in croydon there was a bomb planted in HSBC next to the whitgif center but it was luckily defused.


whatever happens to those terrrorists.....

should be internationally live broadcasted.

 

My condolances to all the vitctims and their families. Thank God though that no one from VFDC was hurt.

This will surely alter the lives for you guys there and I feel bad for you guys since I and most other NA's are living it.

Bruv I been trying to get you on your phone all day!!!!! - I didnt go into work today either cos I felt ill. Been phoning around all day but the networks are really dodgy. Edgware Rd man - that's crazy, it was at the time I'd be passing through there too! >_<

 

My lazy ass has saved me yet again from certain death by terrorist bomb. If I had intented to be at work at 9AM like I should have been then I definitely would have been in the region of the KingsX incident around the time the explosion occured. Luckily my lazy ass was browsing torrent sites looking for some stuff and things, well anyways that' s where I was, and not, thankfully recreating that scene from Virtua Cop 3.

I doubt it will tbh people will just go about there business as normal. Wonder if ID cards will come in though with their £100 fee. Was jokes, in the backstreets people carying on like nothing happened, kids playing in the street etc.

you sick head, browsing porn saves you, same thing happened to you back in the fire of london and the plague innit? You can't kill the COUNT /versus/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

 

Blud it was madded, I was up by Kilburn High Rd and going to get the train into central but decided not to go into work cos I felt rubbish. Saw Ryan on the way back who got on the overground, I went home and had a quick sleep.

Phoned round everyone - proper wasnt worried about Jonathan cos he's out in Croydon, but was prang cos like Edgware Rd is your drum! Then I hear about there was a bomb that was diffused up in Croydon near where J works too!

 

What a bitter sweet pill to swallow for London these past days. My sympathies go out to the people of London and South East England who may have loved ones injured or killed.

It utterly boggles the mind how these fanatics can justify slaughtering hapless individuals to support some religious standard or way of life. Unlike the vast majority of muslims, these people want to impose a tyranical perverted form of Shia rule on the whole Western world.

It's not like they're just fighting for their own right of religious expression (which would be fine), they actually want to sytematically destroy other forms of religious expression and reverse social liberties that the West have taken generations to obtain.

Fuck'em I say. These are not freedom fighters, they're jusy sick.

 

i heard there was also a bomb planted in east croydon station which would have really been a much worse situation. seems like croydon in general was definatley a target.

these acts are cowardly and childish. i dont care what their reasons are, they deserve to be devoured by a knife and fork.

 

My thoughts go out to all UK VFDC'ers and UK'ers / London ppl in general.
