Jfk was a world leader and probably one of the most popular presidents ever. John Lennon was one of the leading musicians of the last century. Hardly good comparisons to piers Morgan or an obscure band most people had never heard of!

Terrorism is about creating terror. Disrupting peoples lives, stopping business as usual. Slaughtering people by the dozen creates terror. Assassinating piers Morgan not as much. Its about creating the thought if we can get to them we can get to you. Articles on 7/ 7 come out every anniversary.

that's the way it has always been hsf, you could massacre 100 people in a cinema for example but if you shot dead harry styles his death would get get far more coverage, plus you would give him automatic legendary status, why? because we turn entertainers into false idols look at Hollywood, that whole place is designed for the shallow and selfish in society, whilst still being evidently racists, but they don't give a damn as long as they get awarded a Oscar to show how great they are.

it still shows where "normal folk" are in the pecking order our lives are not as important as that of famous people, plus the msm don't mention the 7/7 bombing because there are more questions than answers as regards to that incident, they don't mind us mentioning lennon and jfk as enough time has elapsed to muddy both murders, with the amount of books that have been published on both subjects.

I think if you killed 10 people there would be a comprehensive cover from all media for weeks.

Sorry but if I shot a famous person as an example - Piers Morgan, it would make the news immediately, there would be national and international tributes in the papers, social media and a huge amount of celebrities would be taking to the media to talk about it.

If I killed 10 people who were not even domestically or locally famous, then no one would care except for the family of the victims.
There would be a small bit in the paper, the local news station and radio station.

The Paris attacks made the news, sure. But only because of the attacks on Charlie Hebdo earlier on. If the lead singer or drummer got killed from the band that was playing, then we'd still be seeing it everywhere, there would be a daily countdown to the anniversary and all sorts.


When was the last time you saw a news article on the Madrid Bombing or the 7/ 7 Bombing in London? Yet we still talk about JFK and John Lennon.

Hsf "quantity has a quality all of its own. "

the lead singer has just issued a statement apologising for suggesting the shootings were the result of an inside job, make of that what you will.

One thing I did find strange about the concert hall shooting.

If you were a "terrorist" and wanted to make a statement, you'd 100% shoot the guys on stage, right?

I mean if you really wanted to make the news, you'd sneak in, get on stage, shoot the band and then take aim at the crowd. At least, that's how I would have done things anyway, but luckily for the world, I am not a loonie and don't intend on shooting anyone.

trump is no angel and a loudmouth but he is no idiot,he says what politicians think and what certain voters want to hear and that scares the establishment in Washington .

as people will know I am a left wing type of feller and I should want Clinton in power but that women is a wolf in sheep's clothing ,i see trump a lesser of two evils .

You have to understand American society, away from the more liberal coasts and big cities, is different to UK society in that religion still plays a large part in peoples lives. Example the bible belt. Given that all socialist regimes in the rest of the world have been tan by anti religious atheists its easy to see why most Americans fear socialism. Remember the most famous settlers went to America for religious freedom.

I think America in general always has shown itself as a very God fearing society.
I see where your coming from with Clinton, but to say she's worse than trump I disagree completely, and don't forget he raped his X wife Ivana.

May I recommend Flash Boys by Michael Lewis on a similar thread? Excellent book told almost anecdotally.

Just watched it, fantastic film. Will be an eye opener, not so much for the people on here though.

Sounds like mr frankyscouser has already been at the stoly.

22 Dec 2015 21:14:49
Ah right I see. Thank you. Never seen it.

No it's a crime show and the "leader" has an unwritten list of rules, ironically enough, his number 2 is there is no such thing as coincidence.

Is that another of these terrible teenage shows? Like Essex shore or whatever the rubbish my grandchildren watch.

I think Kim has been watching too much NCIS.
