Members YRBB Posted May 23, 2017 Members Share Posted May 23, 2017 What the blazing hell. No one really knows what happened or indeed how many explosions there were but they're treating it as an act of terror for now (rumors of a suicide bomber).

Members ChitHappens Posted May 23, 2017 Members Share Posted May 23, 2017 My heart absolutely breaks for the victims, but I feel terrible for AG as well. Certainly not a fan but how do you get on stage and perform after something like this? Such an awful world Please register in order to view this content Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DramatistDreamer Posted May 24, 2017 Members Share Posted May 24, 2017 There's an update to Stephen Jones. A man named David Sullivan, along with his son rented a house for 6 months for Stephen Jones so he has a place to live rent-free while he gets back on his feet. Hopefully he will but depending on how long a period of homeless Jones has experienced, he may need additional support for rebuilding (skills & job training, emotional/psychological help) his life. Homeless hero who pulled nails out of children’s faces is given a home Chris Parker, another man, also homeless, helped at the bombing site. Apparently, his estranged Mother saw him on the news and claims that she wants to get in touch with him and rebuild their relationship. She said she had no idea he was homeless. I don't know why they are estranged but hopefully this is a genuine desire as he could probably use some help recovering his life. Estranged mum of homeless hero desperate to be reunited with him Despite all this terror and tragedy, humanity has shown itself. Maybe for these two men, the community can have a closer look at how they became homeless in the first place to root out the causes and help others in the future. Still, knowing the fate of those victims, teenage girls, their parents, grandparents, friends- there's really no bright side to that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRBB Posted May 26, 2017 Members Share Posted May 26, 2017 Ariana Grande will return to Manchester for attack benefit concert. I was wondering how she would respond, and this is an excellent idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
