Manchester Ariana Grande Concert

In a big English city hundreds of young girls were allowed to go to a pop concert given by Ariana Grande. Young people would have driven their parents nuts to go and see her many parents would have taken them and either gone to the concert with them or have dropped them off and waited either outside or at home waiting for the call to go and collect them. 
Instead an appalling, disgusting tragedy struck, some terrorist murderer blew himself up and murdered twenty two people including the young people caring parents had allowed to go and have fun. How those parents feel is beyond guessing, every parent knows they have to let go, most do so gradually taking them to concerts, letting them go inside alone to enjoy a couple of hours of screaming, dancing and shouting freedom.
Now that innocent minor rite of passage may end. Concerts may become another no go area for anxious parents. Twenty two people died, many were injured and that's not cuts and bruises we're talking about, that's children who may have lost limbs, may never walk again, maybe scarred for life.
The UK is not an anti Islamic country, oh, there are people like me who complain of the danger Islam represents to women and children but we are mostly abused or ignored. The UK is a multicultural country, politicians never stop telling us how successful multiculturalism is and anyone who disagrees with them is called a racist and a bigot.
Who is going to heal the hearts and minds of young people, who is there to care enough to make sure people suspected of having terrorist associates and/or ambitions are dealt with in a manner severe enough to discourage others, who is going to shut down all extremist Mosques? It won't be government not left or right politicians have neither the honesty or the courage.
Because of politicians thousands of young girls have been sexually abused by immigrant men. The silence and indifference of the authorities was and is too wide spread for the instruction to ignore it to have come from the bottom it came from the top and now we will hear about politicians meeting to talk about, what? How to prevent the British people from becoming angry? Yes that's likely all British and EU politicians will discuss, minimize the danger of attack, maximize to the hilt the 'danger' of racist bigotry. And, by the way acts of murder by racists and bigots are very few and far between. 
The only real way to protect all the people in the UK is to teach everyone in the UK that UK law is paramount and all who break UK law will be dealt with in UK courts not Sharia courts. In that way the UK will at least ensure everyone knows the risks they run.
