[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It was really sobering to think that she had to meet with the families who lost children due to terrorism and then psych herself up for a fun show. I don't know how she does it.[/quote]

It was prob done for viewership. She didn’t have to meet them right before her show; could've met them another day and time 🤷‍♀️[/quote]

I don’t see this as particularly heroic.  Social workers, counselors, nurses, even teachers do this all the time.  They have to deal with a super sad case and then go be happy with the next person.  More frequently than just once but several times in a week. [/quote]

Are the super sad cases due *specifically* to them?   :roll: [/quote]

What are you saying here- that the guy killed the girls because he hated Taylor Swift? Even if he did, do you REALLY Think she should take any level of responsibility for that?  At all?  I mean it was a good idea to meet with the parents/families, but no, the guy wasn’t killing in Taylor’s behalf or because of her in anyway.  The event he chose to attack just happened to be a Taylor one becuase she is everywhere.

The guy had also had ricin and an al_Qaeda training manual.

[i]Rudakubana, of Banks, a village in west Lancashire, also admitted producing the biological toxin ricin and a charge under the Terrorism Act related to possessing an al-Qaeda training manual.[/i]

In trying to defend Taylor/your stance, you are making erroneous connections between Taylor, her level of responsibility and this teen who was clearly looking to be a terrorist.  Taylor had nothing to do with that. Your Taylor allegiance is blinding you.

Different poster but I interpreted this whole exchange differently. The first poster was saying yes social workers and other caregivers have to go through this all the time but it must’ve hit Taylor especially hard because the children targeted were there celebrating her art so it hits specifically close to home.

I don’t think anyone is implying Taylor had anything to do with this. But come on, if you had an art exhibit or something and a bunch of people came to celebrate you and your work and be together in solidarity for how your work makes them feel and a terrorist attack happened I’m sure it would affect you differently than just hearing about a random terror attack on the news, right?[/quote]

I honestly can't believe that even needed to be explained to the PP.[/quote]

Aw. Poor you having to believe that needed to be explained to me. I definitely saw the PP as saying it was all about Taylor and she had to talk to the families because it was about Taylor and social workers have a different level of responsibility because they are not responsible and the events weren’t about them.  I think that is bull crap. There are thousands of Taylor themed events because she has sought fame.  To have to hear and grieve with a few groups of people once and then turn around and sing and be happy is minuscule compared to the day in and day out work social workers and counselors do. 
I’m not saying Taylor didn’t do the right thing.  I’m saying lauding Taylor as some kind of amazing person for doing that is ridiculous. Regular people do this and more all the time day in and day out. [/quote]

JFC.  Give it a rest.  [/quote]
