Katy Perry's Advice to Manchester - "Always Choose Love"

During Ariana Grande's "One Love Manchester" benefit concert, Katy Perry offered her advice to the grieving people.

"It's not easy to always choose love, is it, especially in moments like this... but love conquers fear and love conquers hate, and this love you choose will give you strength, and it's our greatest power.

"As you stand here, all of you here..standing next to a stranger...just touch the next person, touch the person next to you. Tell them I love you, look in their eyes.

"I encourage you to choose love, even when it's difficult. Let no one take that away from you."

Katy, are you saying the people of Manchester didn't choose love before? It didn't conquer the hate of the savage who blew himself up at Ariana's concert, maiming and killing children. It didn't conquer the hate of the beasts who rammed into a crowd and then stabbed people and slit throats less than 24 hours ago in London.

What do you really think a jihadi will do, Katy, if you walked up to him and touched him and looked in his eyes and told him you love him? Will he suddenly see the light? Should the people at the bars in Borough Market have tried that last night?

Ever think the enemy might have a point?

[chris37]

Well isn’t that special.

[BradyLS]

They never say that stuff when they’re waiting in line for their latte at Starbucks.

[Tallguy]

Spoken from deep inside a gated community with a squad of armed private security guards. Put up or shut up, Katy.

[KC_Lion]

Oh Katy, so pretty.

Yet I know that if I tapped on your head it would sound like checking the ripeness of a watermelon.

Their definition of love simply enables Islamic violence.

These silly girls don’t live in a place where love abounds only abuse and self-destruction. Ask M. Jackson and the countless others.

"Always Choose Love"

".....and F___ Trump!"

[Eddie01]

I’m bleeding out on the sidewalk.

I can see me mum holding my head.

I’m dying right now.

My final thoughts...

All you need is love?

Love is the answer?

All you need is dead Muslims.

Dead Muslims are the answer.

[beethovenfan]

Big boobed boob.

[hal ogen]

I’d “love” to see her exiled to pakistan or afghanistan...and penniless. LOL

[Vaquero]

I wonder if the Andrews Sisters would have ever said anything like that about Nazism?

He's the boogie woogie imam of mosque number 3. (Or shemp )

[dfwgator]

Have you hugged a terrorist today?

[Drew68]

Ariana Grande never appeared at a Hillary Clinton rally.

[Jack Hammer]

Choose love - send a moslem to paradise.

[ducttape45]

That woman needs to be picked up and dropped right into the middle of an ISIS infested area of the Middle East. Then she’ll see just how far “love” will get her.

[trisham]

Unbelievably stupid.

[windsorknot]

Have you hugged a terrorist today?

I would choose a bear hug----with a grizzly stand-in.

[trisham]

LOL!
