PHATBOY_AK47 Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 (edited) I personally feel for the people who have lost their lives. Plus for the families who have lost loved ones. Words can't describe how they are feeling at this present time. Edited December 22, 2014 by PHATBOY_AK47 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotlad Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 This is just terrible news. Something like this would be awful enough at any time of year but for it to happen at Christmas is crueller still. First the Clutha, then the School of Art fire and now this - I don't know what this city has done to deserve some of the luck it's had recently. My heart goes out to everyone involved.

Ally Bongo Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 It's also worth remembering that it's also close to the anniversary of an almost identical incident In Glasgow a few years ago when someone that shouldnt have been driving mowed down 2 girls on the pavement Just horrendous Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rabmania Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Was in town earlier and walked past there. Would have been a horrendous thing to witness and of course get caught up in. Dreqdful for anyone injured and of course any pour soul amongst the dead. What's the feckin chances of going into town to do some shopping and then being clipped on the pavement by a bin lorry? Makes you take a step back from trivial worries........ As an aside and completely unrelated to the awfulness of what has happened it would be nice for the reporting to make no mention of the Clutha and shoe-horn in a Jim Murphy connection (political allegiances out the window) - it's lazy and unnecessary. It would also be good if "witnesses" amd rent a quotes would refrain from making reference to the indomitable Glaswegain spirit - it's approaching Liverpudlian heights. Decent people react decently - it's not ingrained into a city dweller's psyche......... Speaking as a Glaswegian, I couldn't agree more.

weekevie04 Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Agreed. Awful news. Terrible. I couldn't bare watching the news and trying to avoid it. Seen a few moments of Sky News and absolute scum - chasing up people who quite clearly didn't want to talk about it. A horrible day for Scotland's finest city.
