Will this madness never end? These terrorists are cowards and are the scum of the earth.
It seems murder and mayhem by vehicles is the preferred choice of these insane fanatics.
My thoughts are with the people of New York again 😔

It puts into perspective the multiple posts about the time ordered and delivery expectations of a phone that has been ordered. So much sadness in the world now. Please spare a thought for the victims and their families.

Sickening news
Once again innocent people mowed down by scumbag(s)
It's upsetting ... the loved ones of the victims & the victims themselves are in my thoughts
It's gone way beyond the phrase ... = ... 'it beggars belief'

It’s just plain awful.
Why?
what is wrong with people today.
Why can’t people no matter who they are get on. Any loss on human life is truly upsetting no matter what, but my heart goes out to all these people and people that it affects as well. Families, friends no matter what, it’s just truly sickening.
i have one saying that my farther always said to me when growing up and it’s stuck with me now.
”If you can’t do some one a good turn, then don’t do them a bad one”

@darrengf I was brought up on something similar:-
If you can't say something nice ... then don't say anything at all
it's not quite the same as what your father said to you ... but ... I get where you're coming from ... it's relevant to today's atrocity in New York ... & ... today's world in general
It worries me, not for myself ... but ... for my own son & his wife ... & ... their future? child(ren) ... & ... my other loved ones
The world is in a helluva state now ... what's it going to be like in the future?

The police shot and wounded the perpetrator. He came from Uzbekistan as a refugee in 2010.
Apparently he acted alone and police say there was no wider threat. Isis related papers were in the rented van
