    Sickening, trying to get eyewitnesses to recount the sights they had seen. Gutter journalism.

    Unfortunately people are magnetically drawn to this kind of horror the same way as they are drawn to dreadful news anywhere and newspapers/visual media coordinators know this.

    You or I are no different. We can't look away. We would never be able to not look at someone else's suffering.

    Saw a fella jump in front of a tube train a few years back - while I had a morbid curiosity to stay around and observe the outcome, 90% of the people on the platform looked at their watches and headed off to find alternate transport.

    Turned on sky and promptly turned off again.

    I list Sky under the Works Of Fiction category, always best avoided.

    Heard from a mate that 3 generations of a family from Dumbarton were in Glasgow shopping and the Grandparents and 17 year old Granddaughter were hit and are among the dead, the mother managed to get away. God help her

    In Ireland at the moment, but horrible to hear about this. I walk past there nearly everyday, you wouldn't even imagine something like that. Hope the injured recover. What a tragedy.
