Multiple bombings of churches and hotels in Colombo and nearby. I’m at Bandaranaike airport right now and only heard minutes ago.
Utterly horrible news.

The other sister just heard back from her, and apparently she's just heard about it, so it sounds like she was at least not at the three targeted hotels.Ghost-Of-Nepia wrote:Although, looking at her itinerary, hopefully she was already on the way to her meeting point for her tour in Negombo...Ghost-Of-Nepia wrote:My sister arrived in Sri Lanka last night.

She had considered checking out a church in Negombo this morning, but went with a few of her tour group members to the beach instead. Sounds like that church was one of the three bombed.

The kind of horrible wit kant you have to be to be able to justify murdering/maiming hundreds of people in this manner astonishing.Anonymous. wrote:At least 200 dead and at least 500 injured apparently.Working Class Rugger wrote:Two more explosions have been reported. f**king terrible.
So you're in contact with your sister? Hope she's found somewhere safe to hold up.Ghost-Of-Nepia wrote:2km away from her hotel, apparently.Anonymous. wrote:One of the churches bombed was in Negombo.

How can someone ever get out onto their head that this is in any way a good thing to do? How can you have so much hatred? f**king religions are shit-the perfect vehicle for dehumanizing other groups and allowing this sort of mass murder.Anonymous. wrote:At least 200 dead and at least 500 injured apparently.Working Class Rugger wrote:Two more explosions have been reported. f**king terrible.
Yep, she's just hanging at their hotel - the tour takes them away from Colombo/Negombo, so provided it's still going ahead, I think she's risking it.Working Class Rugger wrote:So you're in contact with your sister?

Word from the Sri Lankans 'in the know' is that the JVP (filthy commies) are getting a lot of fingers pointed at them already. Internal politics seems to be the first thing they're thinking of.

Strange world we live in.
They're not animals. They're totally f**ked up people.I also like to ask the government to hold a very impartial and strong inquiry and find out who is responsible behind this act, and also to punish them mercilessly, because only animals can behave like that.
