What do we make of chaos at Liverpool's trophy parade?

[SatoPrincess]

This is a pure act of terrorism that was targeted at killing innocent lives I don't think that it was from opposition teams fans this type of incident are regrettable the police should investigate this matter thoroughly and bring the culprit to book I believe that the person who was in the car has been arrested further enquiries should be made and let everyone who is involved in this act of terrorism be brought to the law

According to the police report the Liverpool incident was not a terrorist attack. I doubt this could have been done by a rival fan. I would rather hear from those living in the Uk but so far majority of the contributors on this thread are from other countries.

Several rumors I heard. Some say he was an Everton fan, while some said he is an Arsenal fan.
No true story on who he is, but what I know he is inhumane.
I still don't see any reason why people will take loses to heart and act the way they do. Football is meant to be a game of fun, but now it seems we ought to be careful going for rally, campaigns or watching matches live as there are thread everywhere.

I saw in the news today that the driver was on drugs. No mention was made about the club he support so it could possible be the effect of substance beyond his control that could trigger such inhumane act. The incidence is not different from terrorism and if not of the excuse of drugs, he would have been tried on the basis of terrorism should it be that he did that simply because his club did not win the trophy. My heart goes out to the injured and their families.

This is an horrible experience because it claimed lives, but we can't draw a conclusion yet until we hear the concluding aspect of it from the security investigation team about what transpired as the real fact, I also wish they don't end it to any irrelevant conclusion that he's been drunk or run mentally to have committed such, justice must be executed on this without leaving anyone involved unpunished.

Intolerance is increasing which is surely not acceptable because things are already gone from bad to worse even no one is having any official statement about this accident but while Liverpool fans were enjoying their win having accident like this mean people losing sportsmanship.
Most chances things could be not clarified because officials will try to stop further hated things because this can increase problems in societies which are never been good most chances at the end things could be ended on positive note police already declared this is not terrorist act which is clearing, but act of hate is also near this terrorism.
Few days back I read somewhere else also happen same as one team was celebrating their win rivals enters and create some serious trouble which ended in many injured.

The whole stories is still not clear but until the rumour is confirmed it is not good to mention any club because it may lead to other issues which we don't want to experience. The particular driver or a football fan that did that crazy attitude should be arrested, investigated and be prosecuted if found guilty.

He has no reason whatsoever to do what he did besides losing a game doesn't take the life of the club, people should know things they shouldn't play with because this is no longer a game of football that is violence free, the attitude shows a lot of hate for humans.

Have any news been out about the incident claiming lives? No life was lost in the incident, only casualties.

It's unfair that such a thing happened in a gathering supposed to be for celebration, there are times when football is used to settle disputes and not simulate violence. I don't think from the news it is about club rivalry, substance may be a good cause for his action, but it remains offensive and should be brought to justice.

[Mia Chloe]

It was really heart breaking watching those clips. Fact is a fan got angry and decided to pull of some stunts. It's actually bad to see football fans goes to extreme just because their supporting team lost the game. Though it might just be a mistake which I don't want to believe but in cases like this it's easy to blame the team who lost.

It's Definitely  bad occurrence to be honest and I see no positivity in it. Many a time I've seen a couple of gamblers here in the gambling discussion board that often suggest that some gambler's are actually bold enough to get on a lost cause simply because it's their team of preference or their support team. Basically I never bought the idea and I think from this particular incident I see reasons already why that can be very possible.

Literally, a lot of people belong to football clubs, and it's not enough reason to assume the person did it ecause his club didn't win. No coincidence to it however, but being on drug is the closest assumption to why the driver saw a crowded happy procession and speedily drove through them, it's inhumane, and punishable by law.

[EluguHcman]

Going through clips on this incident brings a lot of questions to mind;

1. Who could possibly be responsible for this kind of evil?
2. Is it possible that this act is carried out by an opposition fan?
3 what happens if it's later found out that this act is carried out by an opposition fan? Would it attract any form of penalty to the club?
4. How does such driver get pass all the security details available on ground and was able to carry out this sort of roll act?

What is most baffling by the watch on the video is ... How did the car even got amidst the crowd? And then we also also consider if the act of the driver was an intentional act or not but for now, we just can't tell how it happened since the video did not capture when the car drove in to the pedestrian.

Football is a game of interest  bonding love in a community as team but some fans could take it too personal beyond just fun but enemity towards oppositions. And they usually shows their sentimentality during when they watches their opposition celebrating over victory.

What do we make of chaos at Liverpool's trophy parade?

I mourned the incident and disaster that occurred to Liverpool supporters, I prayed for those who were hit by the disaster to get well soon.
Indeed, the incident that occurred to Liverpool supporters should be supporters celebrating the championship trophy with pleasure, but fate said differently.

For OP questions, the police have announced in the media.

Merseyside Police Assistant, Jenny Sims, stated that this incident was not categorized as an act of terror.

"We are sure this is a single incident, and currently we are not looking for other related people," Sims said at a press conference.

A 53 -year -old white man was arrested related to the incident. Sims reiterated that the motive of this incident was not related to terrorism.

Tragedy: Liverpool FC


We all hope that the best law must be upheld, whoever the mastermind behind all of that or is a single accident.

I saw the clips, it was really heartbreaking, I think it is from an opposition fan that couldn't hold his grudges about the fact that Liverpool have won the premier League and their fans are celebrating it, or some insane individual that is so obsessed with football fans. Because from the clips I saw, he did not stop the vehicle as he saw the fans gathered, he was just going through the crowd with speed making sure he cleared anybody that was on his way. I was just telling myself myself, what if I was among those crowd, because sure if a team that am supporting gets such victory, I will certainly be at the trophy parade if opportuned. Of course the law should be upheld because it was a deliberate act, so the person should face the consequences squarely.

[Pandorak]

Ever since I watch some clips on the disaster that broke out in the Liverpool's parade, I've not recovered from the trauma of seeing such heartlessness of the highest order.

What began as a jubilant celebration of Liverpool's Premier League triumph turned into chaos and heartbreak when a car rammed into parade goers, injuring at least 50 people, including four children.

Going through clips on this incident brings a lot of questions to mind;

1. Who could possibly be responsible for this kind of evil?
2. Is it possible that this act is carried out by an opposition fan?
3 what happens if it's later found out that this act is carried out by an opposition fan? Would it attract any form of penalty to the club?
4. How does such driver get pass all the security details available on ground and was able to carry out this sort of roll act?

These and many more questions begs for clarity in an a sorry incident as this.

Whatever the reason it is still a mistake, the reason why he is desperate to do this to cause many victims to fall is still unacceptable, very inhumane, does he have no feelings, or at least think that there will be many small children who are there, this is really crazy, i just hope that the perpetrator really gets a sentence that is commensurate with the heinous acts he committed, hopefully the authorities are firm in this matter.

There was a similar thing that happened in my country during the last Easter preseason by some Catholic faithfuls, as the road mass was going on, a trailer ramp into them killing at least 15 Christians in a Muslim populated Street, this incident incited alot of speculations that it may be an attack from the Muslims since there have been several inter religious fights before.

Same with this Liverpool own situation, one will think ot being sponsored by opposition clubs just to destroy they moment of jubilations, injuring 50 fans is not a joke so let us not portion any blame and try to carry out investigation into the case.

[JoyMarsha]

What is supposed to be a celebration turns out to be an unforgettable act. I don't know why evil is filled in people's hearts to do the unthinkable to their fellow human beings who have done them no harm.

I trust that this ugly incident won't be taken lightly by European police intelligence until the root cause of this incident unfolds, as to why someone will decide to use his car to run into Liverpool parade fans who are celebrating their club's Premier League trophy win.

I don't think the parade is mostly made up of European citizens that you will call a terrorist attack on them. You will find different continents (the Blacks, The whites, the Indians, and the Asians), all as Liverpool fans, parading for the club's victory.
This singular act is an attack on the whole world because it affects everyone. Let no one feel it doesn't concern them because it does

I wont be surprised he is lying only to cool the air on what he has done. Everything was well planned from the beginning, he planned the movement in the crowd and also planned what he would say when he gets caught by the law enforcement. He might go to the extent of taking a littlie bit of the so called drugs he told them he was in, other to make his words sound truthful, anyway if further investigations are doing there will be some truth coming out of his mouth in due time.

Sometimes those that commit such crimes blame it on drugs just to pass blames whereas they already have a well planned out intention to Carry out the action, is very highly unfortunate that such high profile crime can be carried out in such a place with all the security, any ways the attacker take advantage of the crowd to carry out the attack so I won't blame the security architecture wholly for this incident.

It doesn't matter who is behind this evil behaviour, either terrorist or fans this is evil to the core, but there are many stories about football fans attacking the other opponent because they lose their game and a argument erupted.

Now they are saying the person that did this crime is on drugs, I hope this is true because some people will intentionally blame it on the drugs to get a easy trial or punishment from the judge.

If watching football can affect you negatively when your supported team lose the match then you need to check yourself very well, the highest is feeling sad instead of getting angry..

I don't think that it's because of love for your club that will make anyone to go to this point by trying to kill people who were celebrating this is not a good behavior by anyone who did this so the police should do their job and let the law have it full force on the criminal involved in this case because this is barbaric and unspeakable


No body should hide under any name to commit any crime  because I know know the justification that this person will bring up this is an act of attempted murder and should be treated like that

[Justbillywitt]

No matter the rivalry shared between clubs, it shouldn't get to the point that one will decide to take the lives of others. That particular act is totally condemnable and football fans should never do anything that will hurt or endanger the lives of others. I don't know if there has been any official statements from the police regarding the incident to know if it was a rival fan that carried out the act. But I strongly believe that it will be a fan of a rival club that acted way. But I don't think such behaviour will attract any punishment to the club, if it happens that the person that committed such an abominable act is a fan of an opposition club. Because the fan wasn't acting on the interest of the club, he acted on his own. No football club will ask it fans to go and take the lives of others. The person that committed the crime will face the consequences alone.

[LUCKMCFLY]

I saw some images of what happened and whenever something like this happens it is unfortunate, but I think that among everything that causes this is actually the excess of alcohol, people who have no control and do it in the street just to celebrate, the bad thing is when tragedies of this style occur many innocent people pay, what happened was so big that in the news they said that this was not a terrorist act, so it was strong, for me everything that started it was the lack of control of those who were very drunk.
