Apparently the Police are trying to say that this is 'non terrorist' - however, the legal explanation in order to have Armed Police etc. and in order to be able to hold suspects longer than 48 hours, is 'the cause of fear to people'.  [or similar words].

So why not put more barriers etc. I place  :-\.  Jane Macdonald is in Leeds Arena on Sat., hopefully there will be lots of security.

Is it possible to fully protect against this kind of attack?

Only if we totally change our way of life and I'm not prepared to do that. Then they have really won.

There are lots of celebrities at lots of venues, though out the UK all the time. I don't think Jane Macdonald would a particular target.

Well exactly.

B list singer who does a programme on cruises. Nice I am sure but very annoying. I don't know if that's enough to make her a particular target??

It's the over-all chaos.  Striking where least expected.  Any venue is at risk ....... I am amazed that when I visit Milton Keynes that bags aren't searched.  A multi-cultural area, lots of doors into the main Centre, no staff in evidence  :-\.  All that glass  :'(

They got him  :-X

I am not sure how being a multi cultural area is a problem. Are you say that you are afraid of certain cultures??  :o

Nope.  That's the problem with the written word and my thread on 'friendship' will show that I am interested in cultures world wide.  Of course, meno-brain here can't remember the name of the thread  :-\ .........

There are extremists in all countries.  But I try to avoid busy areas particularly at festive times of year but that doesn't mean that we don't go out and about.  There is one shopping area where vehicles are allowed really close, it's a pedestrian precinct with access to pick up the infirm - but is totally unguarded so would be an easily targeted coffee shop.  So I try to be vigilant but never think that 'they' won't strike 'here'. 

People can be 'hidden' within a crowd ........ particularly in a multi-cultural crowd where people are less different.

Terrible attack in New Zealand. It's such a peaceful country with a low crime rate, it makes it even more shocking.

Carried out by a far right group. Extremists come in all guises.

Hiding behind an 'idea' though - calling themselves something enables them to justify it.  They are rarely alone in this.   :-\
