Nottingham serious incident - three people dead

[George 1978]

I would just like to say that I am so upset about the three people who was killed in the serious incident in Nottingham today. I just live a few miles from where it had happened and I know all the areas so well.

I have lived in Nottingham all my life and I cannot even remember something like this happening locally.

I hope that you will have the time to think about the people of Nottingham like myself at this moment in time.

It feels like there are more angry nutters loose in the world than ever before. They need to section people like once would happen and quit thinking giving freedom to those who will never be responsible isn't turning everywhere into a psych ward (or potential bedlam). That's what I feel, though may not necessarily apply to this instance. A disabled friend of my father's was stabbed by another person in his supportive housing building, died later in a coma, so I'm pretty fed up. It's a tiny minority, but they are ill and cannot be at liberty even just for their own sakes, and they make it incredibly hard for anybody poor or whatever who gets lumped in with them that can make use of help.

Sorry, this hit a trigger on me and I had to vent. Hope it's not offensive, just there have always been a small number who cause out-sized trouble and damage... and usually everybody around them is completely aware of things. My father's friend found the person is his flat a few times and was threatened irrationally and nothing was taken seriously enough.
