Depends on how much of an enemy the other sides politics represent.

How, even on the first page, the people who usually slavishly follow the mass media now refuse to believe the BBC because the story that is reported on does not fit their personal narrative.

This didn't actually happen. The hell are you on about?

They had no reasonable grounds any more than the original poster did to add information or speculate about the nature of this attack, but they did so anyway, because where B fit within the original poster's narrative, it was an A to them.

Downplaying and ridiculing ("he may have done it to himself", "that must have been one hell of a hangover"), not denying. And what you see here are not arguments, but interests at play. The original poster seems to have the ulterior motive of inserting law-and-order, patriotic, perhaps even slightly far-right beliefs into the public discourse. The people responding, on the other hand, see their relative progressivism attacked and will therefore downplay or attack whatever argument the original poster presented in order to defend their own point of view.
