School Bus set on Fire in Milan

Zorya

With children in it.

What the actual feck?

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-47642298

The driver had been taking two classes of teenagers and their adult escort from a school in Vailati di Crema to a gym but took a different route on a provincial highway apparently heading for Milan's Linate airport, local reports said.

The ordeal then unfolded over the next 40 minutes.

Witnesses said that when he began addressing the passengers with a knife, a boy phoned a parent, who alerted the police.

It took some time before police tried to intercept the bus. The vehicle rammed into police cars before slowing down.

Italian reports said the driver had sprinkled petrol around the bus but police were able to smash the rear windows and let the passengers off before it burst into flames.

Milan prosecutors said they were investigating all possible motives including terrorism.

Looks like serious tragedy was averted!

Yeah, I am watching some videos of it, the guy went nuts, ramming police cars, and then scattering petrol all inside bus. One child had texted parents that he was going mad and that's how the police got there in time.
Madness.

Just glad no one was seriously hurt or killed.

A man hijacked a school bus with 51 students aboard before setting the vehicle ablaze in an apparent protest over Italy's migration policy, police said.

Police spokesman Marco Palmieri said the driver — a Senegalese, 47, with Italian citizenship — told officers after he was arrested: “Stop the deaths at sea, I'll carry out a massacre."

One of the children told reporters at the scene the driver had threatened to pour petrol on them and set them alight. One of them managed to call the police who rushed to the scene and were able to rescue the children.

A girl interviewed by Ansa said the man kept repeating that "people in Africa are dying and that it was the fault of Di Maio and Salvini".

What the feck is going here if you're unhappy about something this is not the right way to go about it. This situation could have been a lot worse.

How this is not being commented and shared l immagine if it was the other way around they would talk about it for a week.

Currently the BBC news site have it as a '3rd rate, sideline news story', despite it being their 2nd most read news story.
Oh, and they forgot to mention he (the school bus driver), has prior precedents for both drunk driving and sexual abuse, of a minor.

You could be damn sure that if Salvini was in government back in 2004 this man would not be in Italy let alone a citizen.

Yeah the mainstream media only tell us the news that they want us to know to try portray a certain narrative to us. It's usually best to get your news from independent media outlets and trying to read a story from multiple sources if that's possible.

Because it doesn't fit the narrative that the majority of the mainstream media is pushing so it's ignored by most of them.

This story hasn't been given much prominence in the main Irish newspapers. I had to dig a bit to find them.
This was very,very close thing.

The article says the driver was known to be angry about Italy's migrant policy??

Why the hell was he driving a school bus so???

It's all very well people saying they knew these things after the fact, why didn't they do anything beforehand?

It's the 3rd story listed on their news homepage after Brexit and hundreds dead in Mozambique, considering nobody was seriously injured in this attack I think that is an appropriate level of prominence, even bordering on giving it too much.

The prominence given to Brexit and their bickering idiot politicians every bloody day for the last 2 years on the other hand...

8hrs later and https://www.bbc.co.uk/news shows it listed on the sidelines (third level of visual hierarchy), just below 'lotto win will change me' story.

While at the same time being the 3rd most read newstory, it's the same place it was, when the 2nd most read earlier today at 2/3pm.

Zorya

Had to go to work so couldn't follow up story but I see now at BBC link in OP that they added a last paragraph all about nasty right wing govt and their policies. Almost as if trying to justify why someone would do this. The guy tied up kids, took their phones, had petrol, said he had planned it and so on. I read it was one kid who opened a back door that let them out. How can the BBC tack on any hint of justification for what could have been a dreadful event. Very odd.

Auntie Semite

Senegalese driver, angry about Italys migrant policy ....diversity is our strength.

But..but sure Italy have always had problems with Italian bus drivers trying to burn 51 children to death whats the difference right?

Some of the articles mentioned he hijacked the bus which suggests he wasn't the person who was actually supposed to be driving it at least that's what it would lead you to believe.

Yes in what is considered a '3rd visual level hierarcy position'. Not a headline, nor sub-headline news position.

As others mentioned they even hinted at implied justification for this fellows actions. But strangely, at the same time, forgot to mention he (the school bus driver), held both i) prior drunk driving, and ii) sexual assult (of a minor) convictions.

Glad the children escaped. Seen an article saying the hijacker kept saying 'none of you are gonna survive today'

Lets stand up to these people.

Irish Guitarist

I'm sure he's really convinced the Italian government to rethink their migration policy. Great fucking thinking Einstein.

Zorya

At first I thought it was quite strange that this incident was reported in such a muted fashion, as it was potentially so terrible. But upon reflection I wonder if it was a concerted decision not to give this event too much media exposure to avoid the possibility of copycat actions, or putting ideas in people's heads. This would be a very soft target for terrorists, with bus loads of children daily driving here and there, and so on. Maybe that is the reason it is so down-played. Which would be a good reason.

He also has a record of past drunk driving and sexual assault. I wonder how a man with his history can have the licence to drive a bus, let alone a schoolbus!
A local newspaper reads that he was angry at the Italian government who dosn't accept migrants, while migrants die at sea every day.
So it's clearly our fault.

Lucky escape for the kids, to put it mildly.

Hope the creature attempting to massacre them gets life in prison at the very least

I doubt it.
Over here sentences are often mild, and this... poor creature... will receive a good treatment, because he was left behind by our evil western society. He's a victim of our indifference and greed.

I think 7 to 10 years in prison is top.

Roh god, unpopular opinion alert!
The drownings in the Med, which are abhorrent, were caused by a very well established people trafficking network, people making huge sums of money in North Africa to push these unfortunates out to sea on dinghies. Slave markets. Preying on poor people's aspirations for economic success.
The traffickers were aided and abetted by bleeding heart NGOs who moored in their Saviour Ships off the Libyan coastline and picked up these people in their dinghies when they were barely out to sea and instead of returning them to Africa, brought them across the 300 miles ot the Italian coastline.
It was absolutely ridiculous. Italy was utterly overwhelmed. Hundreds of thousands landed on their shores and had to be processed, up to 70% of all refugees to Europe. They often then disappeared, going northwards. Feck, the Italians often put them on trains to get them out of their countries - and who would blame them, no country could sustain such an influx.
So, a democratically-elected government decided to close the ports. Now they are the monsters supposedly - well on the BBC and Irish Times, they are portrayed as some sort of xenophobic monsters. And yet it is the closure of the ports that has saved people. It cut off the end of the migrant pipeline and the traffickers cannot profit now as much from human misery. One tenth of the number drowned in the seas since the ports closed, since the Saviour Ships had to give up their missions.

Ah the old dodge that only 'white' (that's presuming Wibbs is so btw!) people are racist line if they do anything or make a comment about anything about any one of a different colour. We get you

There's a bunch of other things why white people are supposedly "so annoying" (this is also not racist btw!)

taking offence too easily, being too literal about everything, overarticulating when angry, being humourless and pedantic, talking all the way through dinner, priding themselves on knowing obscure facts, being vegan, needlessly using Latin phrases, being condescending and improperly using slang terms.

Ipso facto that covers practically everyone on Boards including Wibbs

Better shut the place down so ...

While Black Americans had no choice in the matter, if White people and their culture is so silly, why are half the world fighting to get into White nations and cultures and feck all Whites are fighting to get into non White nations and cultures? Answers on a postcard to the usual address.

Yup, it's how Australia dealt with their flow of illegal immigrants coming by sea. Hundreds were being drowned every year, until the Australian government stopped them making landfall on the country and put them in holding camps on islands to process them. Drownings all but stopped overnight.

I wonder will Pat Kenny or Sean O Rourke have it on their show this morning ?
Probably not - there will be more Trump hissy fitting and blaming all white people for the NZ attack.

Standout headline on the Irish Examiner's viewpoint this morning:
We must tackle global threat of white terror

Yep, all us whities are responsible for all the world's ills.

The author could have easily used this headline:
We must tackle global threat of white extremist terror

But nagh, white guilt must prevail on media outlets, as it reinforces the liberal/left push for uncontrolled economic migration to Western countries.
