Jesus, I can only assume it's a neo nazi attack, given the proximity to the synagogue.

they are now saying a hilton hotel and a restaurant also had incidents, but it may be the same attacker

Lone terrorists are a threat but when they start working in pairs that's really scary.

everyone just wants some normality in their lives that they can latch on to rather than constant chaos. These are just crazy times

Every day at the moment brings a little more crazy too.

The election results tomorrow will bring their own brand of crazy too and I fear it will not be pretty.

[Ammi]

...yeah I agree, the election results will add to the crazy, I think...I think that so far as the USA goes...it’s been crazy for 4 years there because Trump encourages so much division etc...but we usually have distractions from ‘crazy’ ...they’re not such a focus as they are atm and have been because of COVID restrictions to our lives to focus on negatives and crazies in a way that we never have before...

It is Annie, it's like so much and so many of the World's gone mad.

A tragedy and incident like this, made light of with wild and ridiculous possibly statements, never helps to solve anything either

At any loss of life, my thoughts always go out for those whose lives have been cruelly taken, plus my thoughts with those now bereaved.

You are right, it's terrifying.
Because it now appears that solutions to what's happening are almost non existent at present sadly too.

Awful times indeed.
