Paris terror attacks on Friday 13th

Apparently there was 1500 at the show.
You kind of ask yourself "Do I feel happy that 1400 were ok or sad 100 were killed?" Just an awful situation, trying not even to think about it. Very sad.
 
People need to start entering into a collective mood of just mobbing someone shooting with a gun. Shouldn't be possible for 3 or 4 guys to execute dozens one at a time. I know what I would be doing in that situation, shitting myself on a corner waiting for my turn, but survival instinct needs to be reshaped in our minds.

Apparently these guys had grenades and AK47s, it is very difficult to mob them, they would get mowed down or trampled.

If only it was like in movies.

I have no idea how it is, but from every scientific report I have read, it seems that waiting for his turn is how people behave.

What worries me is that this type of massacres can have an another affect. If the government cannot protect their own citizens, then the citizens will start defending themselves, like in US. And then we know what happens.
 
This is absolutely crazy, when my brother told me what had happened I thought he was joking! God I wish he was. This is depressing.
 
Facebook has a thing where it asks you to tag yourself as "safe" if your location is marked as Paris. Very silly, but seeing the notifications of friends tagging themselves as safe is a great sight.
Two of my sister's best friends live if parents and have notified themselves as being safe. They're both in the 11th districts and said that people are letting in other people off the street to get them out of harms way.
 
If there is one captured, hell forget a trail, strip him naked and put him in a big fecking glass box in middle of the champs elysees and keep him alive so that he can live a long life knowing he failed to destroy us.
 
We should consult Israel on tactics to deal with terrorists at home. Target the houses of family of the terrorists identified?

Can we bloody talk about the biggest terrorist attack in French history before we bring Israel into the debate?
 
It's emotion talking, though obviously some have gone way past the line.

Yep. I'd expect nothing less tbh.

This whole situation is incredibly sad to say the very least.


It's terrible, but I find myself lacking even more comprehension for someone who, in the face of something like this, manages to conjure up a joke.

Making emotional comments in the heat of the moment is one thing. Making jokes is another.
 
Religion is the cause, in the same way democracy was the cause in WW II or national identity has been in the past as well. But, that said, you don't attach the blame to the reason people are in conflict, you attach it to the people who are actually in the conflict.

These people are monsters, minds warped by some twisted teaching of a religion to the point where it has no true reflection on the actual religion in whose name they're meant to be fighting. No religion will be advocating these attacks, no clear-minded Muslim will be proud of these attacks and so it's not fair for any normal Muslim to be blamed for these attacks.

I really don't get how people can be stupid enough to blame a whole religion in an event like this, but when it comes to a United fan chanting some vile chant (for example) they're more than happy to say "Well he doesn't reflect all United fans."

Doesn't that completely go against survival instinct? The guys starting the mob are pretty much guaranteed to get hit/shot and then eventually crushed if others join in.
 
The media really goes to shit in this. Why is the BBC repeating unconfirmed reports on social media? Do your fecking job
 
The German players are still in the stadium. Security reasons as the bus would be a good target.
 
Attacks at a football match and a show.

That's literally all I do; I'm very upset over this.

Just hope as many people as possible are ok.

Agreed and thats what crossed my mind. A major city, with two of the activities I love. Worrying :(

If you think Israel is the model response to this you've really not been paying attention. There is no peace in Palestine or Israel

Good post.

Good to hear they're well given how close they were to the tragic events.
 
Yup. I don't shed a tear for the terrorists that end up dead but if we manage to catch any alive, they will get their due process and spend the rest of their long lives in solitary confinement.

More importantly, he will be questioned.
 
BBC have now mentioned the possible Calais fire. They are saying it's from social media.

Did they used to be like this? What with that cock asking a survivor to count the bodies earlier, it's just amazing just how bad the news reporting has become.

Good point. Considering that there have been 7 terrorist attacks which were coordinated, it is clear to see that there is some deep planning behind it.

The Beeb have let themselves down tonight. The news anchor has been struggling for a good while now.

Sorry if I missed it RiP but are all of yours accounted for?

In a way it almost is their job now, so much of the facts are shared via social media. Look at the hostage inside the concert hall posting via facebook.

It can work if there's one gunman. A high school teacher in America saved a lot of lives that day not so long ago by doing that. However three terrorists who each have AK's (each magazine has 30 shots) and probably more fire arms to boot would hold off a lot of people swarming them.
 
Honestly the only way to stop these fecking lunatics would be to first shut down every border into major European countries and just glass the middle east.

Wipe them out entirely.

Happy to see this lunatic has been banned. Precisely this mentality that breeds further violence.
