Some loonatic tried to drive his Suzuki Swift into the royal family, but missed and hit a monument. In the process he drove into 17 people, killing 2, wounding 15, including little children and a pregnant woman.

The idiot is alive and told police he did it all on purpose.

Well, to you Americans this is just something on television. That's why I posted it here. But it can be moved if necessary.

I also find it interesting that the majority of the people and/or police are surrounding the hurt people. In the US the dude driving the car would be getting clubbed with nightsticks.... by everyone.

It wasn't immediatly clear that it was an attack. At first people thought it was just someone that passed out behind the wheel and lost control of the car. That's why.

That's a bummer, Fleur...I wonder what they idiot's reasoning was...

The entire country is upside down right now. All tv channels have been broadcasting about it constantly all day long. People are shocked and almost all festivities have been cancelled in the entire country.
This is a disaster for us, because Queensday is the most important holiday for our country of the year. And this year was extra special because the Queen-mother, that started the tradition, would have been 100 years old today.

So, so sad.

The parade was being broadcasted live when the car hit. So the entire country got to watch live as children and people where being resusitated (or however you write that). Shocking.

It is actions like this that remind me of how much I hate people in general. Selfish, self-serving pieces of shit.

You were right. I never looked at that board and thought it was a board for news and tv. That's why I posted it there.
Thnx for the move.
