I'll make sure i pass on your thoughts to my friend and his daughter, im unsure if it will give them any comfort but you never know.

Really Day@atime ? I think even for you that's a bit Low if I'm honest , I hope your word's of wisdom go down well with those that read them and I'm assuming you lost no one in that atrocity unless your just looking for a reaction again ?

Happy to oblige !! .

Think youve got the wrong end of the stick fellas

Would that be the big stick of " Justification " that you seem to be holding in your hand ?

Perception of posts is bespoke. Perfect Julie.
470,000 innocent people killled by a mixture of different folk in Syria. millions have fled their country in fear of the Assad regime, Isis, the USA, Russia. 55,000 of those bombed with chemical weapons ( illegal) or butchered were children. Its been going on for 6 whole years & yet no one outside of that country gives a toss. My point was if we had, just maybe, the horrible tragedy in Manchester would never have occured & all those suffering today may have been saved from the pain they are going through.
If we started to stop distinguishing between race, colour, creed & treated everyone as earthlings we may begin to move forward as a species.

Martin if i offended you i apologise, i respect you, & i have every sympathy for your friends loss.
I wasnt trying to justify a terrible event. Just trying to understand how we got to this place.

Dear forum users

National events this week have been tragic and it's understandable that feelings will run high. However, the purpose of the forum is to promote recovery from the effects of problem gambling. Please can users re-focus on recovery.

Many thanks.
