... this hurts. to think that everyday, tons of people walk past him and give him no help, and he is better person than all of them... wow. 

 

Allegedly he was an ex-soldier too. That really brings up some questions about the state of our country, but now's not the time for that... 

Someone set up a JustGiving page to help this guy out for his heroism. It's up to 12k.

And on a side note, someone on Facebook has asked ITV News for contact for him, so he can get him a job and a place to stay

Wow. I hope they are able to get the money to him so that he can get a nice suit and a nice job. He deserves it.

Stuff like this make me, sad and mad at the same time.

To think that my concert was 5 days after this, I'm heartbroken.

People in my school keep telling me 'I'm sorry that she quit the tour', Ariana's health is more important than that. The victims, the families, Ariana's crew, the fans, all of their health are more important than anything right now.

Someone told me Ariana was looking for attention today, I had the nerve to give her a slap. People are dying and then there are people who would do anything to get retweets, likes, followers, relevance, etc. 

I'm so so so so sad & angry that this had to happen & I'm so so sorry for all the victims, the injured people & all the others that have been affected in this tragedy. My heart is with all of you.

 Just wanna give you a virtual hug. All of this is awful.

We lost so many young fans.

I'm still speechless days later. How cruel humans can be and for what? A religious/political/extremist reason over ideology? 

I'm also scared - where can I go that's safe? Schools, malls, movie theaters, now concerts?

Martyn Hett has been found and unfortunately didn't make it. A hugely popular guy on Twitter and a devout Corrie fan with hilarious online content. Pictured here on Twitter on the night of the concert. I want you all to know how loved he is by a lot of people. I never met him, but I wish i had.

 

His colleagues have written a fitting piece to describe him. To read about him, click here:

We need to read about the victims, and celebrate them and not the perpretrators. 

Such a shame. When you hear about these attacks in London, New York, Stockholm, I've always felt so sad but a bit of a detachment. When this happens in a city 30 minutes away, a city I frequent so often, an arena which I've been to 10+ times, and victims are among the communities that I am in, it feels like the most bizarre, surreal experience.

Not a lot unites people these days, but a concert brings people together to celebrate an artist(s) we all love. It's a celebration of music, and can create some of your best memories. How somebody can target such a soft, young audience and turn what should be a nice experience into a traumatic event that will haunt everybody is BEYOND me. It's the purest form of evil.

There is no evidence to suggest that any of the missing victims were accomplices in the bombing. What on earth could possibly bring you to such a conclusion?

idk i think its just a thought generated from watching moves/tv shows where people go missing because theyre a suspect.

Sorry that's ridiculous. These are children. What makes you think they were in on it?
