11/13 Paris Terror Attacks

At least 18 are dead after a series of explosions and shootings. There have been at least 4 separate, but coordinated incidents.

CNN also just announced that there are also 60 hostages being held in a theater.

Update: More than 128 dead. We got a new rating. Basically, everything went fucky.

Firefight on the streets of Paris right now

Anyone know a news source that's good at live shit like this? CNN's coverage of the Boston attack was frankly embarassing and confusing, moreso than the other news networks.

Here's a link to CTV Newsnet (Canada): http://www.ctvnews.ca

CNN reports at least 60 dead

 

[Yellow Yam Scam]

There are reports of Facebook posts from people inside the concert hall asking the police to raid. Frightening.

CNN reports at least 60 dead

As I mentioned, while I don't doubt casualties are that high, CNN has proven itself to be unreliable as fuck in events like this in the past, even compared to other news sources.

I've heard it summed up so. Fox is too conservative, MSNBC too liberal, and CNN too incompetant.

 

[Ahffline]

This is terrible. I hope the cops can nab at least some of the bastards before they off themselves.

Jesus Christ. This could end up worse than Mumbai.

 

[Maruukat]

France closed off all their borders.

Daily Mail reports Gunmen yelling Allah Akbar, and "this is for Syria"

Not even an hour into this and Conspiracy Nuts are already going false flag over this according to some guys I know.

Our hearts and prayers go out to those in Paris

This is absolutely devastating. I know France has undergone a lot of terrorism this year, especially during January 7th, and similar things happened in 2014 with the Jewish Museum shootings in Brussels, where I live. Since Paris is so close by from here, I'm deeply concerned about the growing amount of terrorism acts in countries like France and Belgium, and what the future holds
Thoughts and prayers go out to the people of Paris and to @varvarstvo

Of course. For fuck sake at least wait for the bodies to cool you ghouls.

You know I normally start my day with some Alex Jones because his show is hilarious, but I feel he'll just make me fucking angry tomorrow morning.

Back on point, something does seem slightly weird in that we still don't have confirmation of anyone claiming responsibility unless I've missed something. ISIS is usually pretty punctual, might be a lesser known extremist group.

 

[Dork Of Ages]

Goddamn, not one day can pass by without losing faith in humanity.

@varvarstvo and other French Kiwis, stay safe out there.

 

[Doctor Professor Timon]

Nothing more to say than: "You let Muslims with a medieval ideology and modern weapons into your society. What did you think would happen?"

Also - as of now - 40 bodies have been confirmed.

French schools closed for tomorrow

 

[Ahffline]

President Hollande has issued a State of Emergency.

This guy is in the theatre posting on FB. Sounds like he is waiting for them to come to kill him.
