Rant time.

I saw this on my phone so I can't easily post screenshots, but Yahoo made the purely idiotic decision on mobile to replace the ribbon of articles with a ribbon of comments from their head article, of which was just happened in London.

Instead, the attack was on a mosque.

Is there anything in place to prevent a Timothy McVeigh level operation? How locked down are Ammonium Nitrate and Fuel Oil in Europe?

At least 13 dead and 50+ injured in Barcelona as mentioned above, both numbers expected to rise.
I'm getting breaking news fatigue.
