Bloodshed in Paris this evening

Post by BostonBeaneater »

PARIS (AP) — Two police officials said at least 26 people have been killed in shootings and explosions around Paris Friday, in the deadliest violence in France in decades.
Europe is heating toward a boil. I am sort of expect so hardcore xenophobic violet reactions to this one.

The Eagles of Death Metal were playing the Bataclan that night.
people are, via cellphone, begging the police to storm the theater, as the terrorists are killing people one by one.

So it's not really a "hostage" situation...it's just plain cold-blooded murder by terrorist scumbags.

This will really do a lot of good at furthering that whole exit strategy thing that extracts the West from participation in pointless wars that create 10x as many terrorists as end up being killed.


Also: heaps more tension about the refugee situation Europe is facing is exactly what the doctor ordered right about now.
