Did this happen to-day HH?? I work in Paisley now and there were rumours of the same thing yesterday but I haven't seen any confirmation of that!

[Hampden_Hibby]

It's just happened in the past hour. No one being allowed in or out of the hospital.

Just seen it on Sky news . This is turning into a bit of a nightmare. Never thought it would come to Scotland!!

ok call me a shite stirrin kant of guy who has no evidence at aw but.........................


................if there was a loaded car in the car park of the hospital near tae the airport it begs the question was it intended tae be detonated after the anticipated carnage at the airport once the injured were rushed tae hospital tae further cause greater fear, alarm an distress??

certain conditions which we are unaware of right now need tae apply tho

1) the car has been there since yesterday
2) it did indeed contain either explosive material or a device intended tae explode an cause damage
3) there is a definite link tae the motor wi the folk lifted yesterday

if these conditions arenae applicable then ahm a paranoid kant of the highest magnitude an i apologise now but...............


.......if these conditions are accurate then why was a rigged-up motor at this location

very good point, i'd assume controlled means that theres a method tae ensure minimum ballistics etc

tho ma understandin of procedure is tae remove completely fae the scene first an dismantle/detonate at the safest location however it can be decreed that by movin it would pose a greater danger an therefore its done in situ

ahm genuinely hopin here in this instance theres an unidentified vehicle been spotted an as a purely preventative measure in the interests of immediate public safety its been destroyed wi nae confirmation that it contained an explosive device

I suppose it's often controlled in the sense that there's no one within the radius of possible damage and maybe they throw up some sort of screening to stop the stuff like nuts, bolts and nails which are after all, the things that do the damage as opposed to the explosion itself.
