AoWW Posted 14 November 2015 Posted 14 November 2015 I'd like to see it moved to Wembley with proceeds donated to the relatives and victims, not that it'd ever happen for a number of reasons. I'd been out this evening and hadn't heard anything of this. When I got home and went online it was your post on FB that alerted me to this going on in Paris. Horrendous scenes - my heart goes out to all those affected.
fuchsntf Posted 14 November 2015 Posted 14 November 2015 Special police had to move in...the terrorist had already started to murder their hostages, so they had no chance... Most likely 95% death toll in the concert hall.... Poor poor bastards....whoever you young ones were...RIP...l
FireFox Posted 14 November 2015 Posted 14 November 2015 I've been watching the news for over 3 hours today now. More than I usually watch in a week. Had to turn off the TV though now. Just too much horror and sadness for me to try to be wrapping my mind around.
Larry_LCFC Posted 14 November 2015 Posted 14 November 2015 I dread to think what the bataclan must look like inside right now. Feel for the emergency services having to deal with the disturbing aftermath. Such a waste of life.
lestajigs Posted 14 November 2015 Posted 14 November 2015 I'm talking immediate response after an attack. We haven't got the armed officers France have got. It would take us far longer to get people on the ground. tbf mate, i think you would be surprised how quick we would have the right people there, our defence I would imagine would be one of the best in the world, we are at a big risk this might happen here, so everything would be in place
urban.spaceman Posted 14 November 2015 Posted 14 November 2015 Gratuitous murder in the name of the religion of peace. Again. Horrifying to see it happening in a city I love. Horrifying that explosions and shootings can happen so close to the Stade de France too - fully packed with people just there watch a football game.
yorkie1999 Posted 14 November 2015 Posted 14 November 2015 I think this could be an end to open borders throughout Europe and the obvious knock on consequences.
leicsmac Posted 14 November 2015 Posted 14 November 2015 Ugh. Just got up and seen this...utterly sickening. What motivates a person or group of people to kill and maim in such a horrific fashion? To treat other people as things in that way? Utterly insane. Simply cannot understand the thought process, and I don't think any sane person would. But...France withstood four years of occupation by a regime so evil that this little group of death-worshipping fascists wouldn't be fit to lick the boots of them. The French will survive, and they will remember. If humanity doesn't actually get over its differences and realise that we have more in common that not...then I think one day it will end up costing us everything.
J.Lisemore Posted 14 November 2015 Posted 14 November 2015 Surely this is just the start of what there is to come... Awful and sickening to hear but I can't say I'm surprised.
Carl the Llama Posted 14 November 2015 Posted 14 November 2015 Cowards the lot of them. I hope the irony's not lost on them when they show up to eternity with 72 more idiots who thought murdering innocent people would grant them an afterlife brimming with nubile pussy.
fuchsntf Posted 14 November 2015 Posted 14 November 2015 tbf mate, i think you would be surprised how quick we would have the right people there, our defence I would imagine would be one of the best in the world, we are at a big risk this might happen here, so everything would be in place Not, the French, not the Brits, nor any other secutity forces..WWIDE, could of done anything better, on what happened today. These attacks, from suicidal, small pods of terrorists, are not defendable.Roaming terrorists are just not possible to defend against. Something should be mentioned on the French, Belguim special forces..Their experiences go way back their infastructure and intelligence is 2nd to none, they have been fighting terrorism and been the back-garden to shits of the worlds for years. Another tact...this could mean also mean we could well, for the wrong reasons revert back through the whole of Europe to closed borders..
MPH Posted 14 November 2015 Posted 14 November 2015 Now confirmed at 158 dead. 118 just in the concert hall. Horrific.
fuchsntf Posted 14 November 2015 Posted 14 November 2015 I think this could be an end to open borders throughout Europe and the obvious knock on consequences. just posted the same .If not permanent maybe a political statement like....for the unseeable future
Larry_LCFC Posted 14 November 2015 Posted 14 November 2015 Fvck me. 158 is horrendous. I would be surprised if it doesn't top 200 as further discoveries are made. It is just incomprehensible.
The Doctor Posted 14 November 2015 Posted 14 November 2015 What do you think they are fighting for? For the Tories to repeal the cuts to tax-credits? What an utterly stupid comment, they're fighting not for the religion as such but their supremacist agenda - the religion is just an excuse for them. They would want more people radicalised, and sowing discord to the point that the public start declaring this to be the beliefs of all muslims plays perfectly into their hands, because people like you, acting suspicious of those who do just want to live peacefully, will make more feel unwelcome.

Exactly this. Escalation and global mistrust is exactly what they want.
Thracian Posted 14 November 2015 Posted 14 November 2015 We can only speculate about how "easy" it was to gather the firearms and take care of the logistics required to plan and execute such a flurry of more or less simultaneous attacks. "Easy" is not the first term that springs to my mind... We also don't know to what lengths the attackers went in order to disguise their plans and actions. What we require is a calm head and an efficient, thorough and swift investigation.

What we require is a calm head and an efficient, thorough and swift investigation. I'll hold to my view on this MC - it's not been long since other weapons were heard on the streets of Paris and the tide of immigrants and refugees moving to and fro can only make the potential for weapons acquisition and movement harder to prevent.
Thracian Posted 14 November 2015 Posted 14 November 2015 True, but I bet there's a lot more goes on behind the scenes in this country than the rest of Europe simply because of the terrorist attacks we had to deal with in the past from the ira. You can be sure there is but, even now, we get people bleating about new internet-access laws to potentially enhance security.
fuchsntf Posted 14 November 2015 Posted 14 November 2015 By the grace of God go I..... My 4 kids, all of an age where they would go to various concerts.Travel to tourists cities, to go to concerts, also to see local gigs. This morning many parents will be told that their kids wont be returning home, after they went out to have a bit of craiq, enjoy themselves in a total innocent happy atmosphere. Not because of a tragic accident, but war as returned to the streets..
BigMicky Posted 14 November 2015 Posted 14 November 2015 Why France? Easy Target?? Air strikes in Syria since September maybe? Allows for potential border closure in Europe? I've no idea, all taken from twitter discussion.
Miquel The Work Geordie Posted 14 November 2015 Posted 14 November 2015 Can't wait for us to all let Islam off again.
BigMicky Posted 14 November 2015 Posted 14 November 2015 Can't wait for us to all let Islam off again. What do you mean by "let off"
Miquel The Work Geordie Posted 14 November 2015 Posted 14 November 2015 What do you mean by "let off" oooo its not indicative of this that and the other yar yar yarrrrr heres a meme from twitter to prove my point yar yar yarrrrr
leicsmac Posted 14 November 2015 Posted 14 November 2015 What do you mean by "let off" He means we should demonise the many on the actions of the few.
