PlasticJock 539 Posted January 16, 2012 Report Share Posted January 16, 2012 (edited) A survivor of the guy who killed a few family members/friends in the North East on ITV News in a moment... On the trailer she said the above, because ''you ant trust anyone'', unfortunate what happened to her but should she be voicing an opinion on something when she's obviously still traumatised??? Or is it ok because it's an 'exclusive' for the media? Edited January 16, 2012 by PlasticJock Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Fair one, I don't understand why the reporter asked her a question that is obviously going to be answered in the negative? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Everyone will be jumping on the bandwagon. What would stop him from driving to the club, driving home and doing it all again? I know 'What if's' don't help, but to ask someone who has been through that their attitude to firearms is a bit pointless... 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Got a book for Christmas called 'Flat Earth News', written by an Nick Davies, an award winning journalist etc... Brilliant read, shows exactly how things are kept out of the media and how most stories are either bought from the press association, or recycled from the Internet having been fluffed up a bit.
