Always terrible that this crap happens in the world. Even worse when it's little girls who are targeted. Imagine that, going to see your idol, and never getting to tell your friends about it the next day. Absolutely terrible. This world sucks.

Sadly this is becoming the new normal and our politicians are refusing to acknowledge that it's a problem. At least the US has Trump.

Absolutely horrible. About 20 mins from me, hits close to home. In an arena filled with so many children and teenagers, just awful.

This wasn't a terrorist attack. It's a suicide bombing. Nothing dealing with getting into "heaven", nothing to do with religion... Just someone who wanted to cause harm to innocent people. Happens every single day. Unfortunately, there were probably several innocent children that were taken this time. It actually was.

This is so wrong and misguided it hurts. Not misguided just being real and looking at things from a higher perspective. Yes it is sad what happened today, but there needs to be a solution to stop it and stop thinking the problem will go away cuz it wont. Misguided that you think no terrorist attacks will happen in America while Trump is President? Yes, you are very sorely misguided and naive. Sadly this is becoming the new normal and our politicians are refusing to acknowledge that it's a problem. At least the US has Trump. The only thing Trump has done is try to enact a travel ban. Guess what? That wouldn't have prevented this terrorist attack. This came from a British national, someone who has probably lived and worked here his entire life. How is stopping people coming into a country going to prevent people already in it from committing atrocities? Same way I've seen people try to claim letting refugees into the country has anything to do with it. It's complete nonsense, but hey, anything to further their own prejudices and beliefs.

Trump at least acknowledges that there's a problem with radical islamic terrorism. He's one of very few non-extremist politicians to do that.

I can happen here, no matter who the president is. If you think one man can change that you need to think again. I highly doubt it cuz ever since the travel ban has been in progress most bombings have been out in the UK instead of the U.S., it's unlikely for it to happen here now. The travel ban is not in effect because the courts found it to be unconstitutional. But hey Trump did make an arms deal with the people that helped support the 9/11 attackers and all sorts of terrorist acts.

Absolutely horrific. Thoughts go out to all those and their families that have been affected by this tragedy.

I'm sure Bono will have to say a lot about this when U2 play in Houston tomorrow.

Horrific that innocent lives of children had to be taken away so young. Kids that had dreams of being doctors, police officers, entertainers, maybe even a factory worker or just wanted to grow up to become a mommy or father to their own kids. No matter the case the world lost bright lights due to a loser. Who cares who you voted for, or where this happened. An 8 year old little girl died after seeing something she probably dreamed about. That thought trumps (no pun intended) any feeling anyone has about the president or anything else.
Put aside petty feelings about politics for one second and think about those really affected by this tragedy.
Rest in peace little ones and the others. I hope you find peace wherever you are and are happy.

Oh look ISIS took responsibility of the bombing, sorry I'm not delusional and live in a fairy tale. Since the travel ban has been in progress there have been no bombing attacks or terrorist attacks in the U.S. I'm just going off by facts.

Ever hear of domestic terrorist? It can and probably will happen here.

The attacker was Salman Abedi, a child of Libyan refugees who fled from Gaddafi. ISIS has claimed responsibility. RIP to all the victims and my thoughts are with the families. Sadly, having a terrorist attack every few months in Europe is becoming the new normal.
