If Music Could Talk

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.

Many hostages taken as well, god knows what they're going through, horrible news, absolutely horrible.

French media reporting at least 60 dead

the hostage situation is at the legendary Bataclan Theatre. i just last night listened to the famous Dolls show from there broadcast on Radio Luxembourg in '73.

The explosion outside the national stadium where Germany played France

Jesus.

This is going to get a lot worse before it gets better.

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.

This is just incomprehensible.

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

a French music journo who was at the gig was there when it started is talking now; says when he escaped via the stage he saw 20-25 bodies on the floor around the stage.

Excuse the language, but evil cunts, nothing more to them, that is just horrific.

France's borders have been closed, state of emergency declared by Hollande.

6 gunmen according to the BBC still on the loose.

5 explosions near the Bataclan now.

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.
