Switch Back 9
a lot of my threads involve me fucking up somehow. Perhaps I'm a moron?
Oh right, that makes sense.

They keep saying the terrorists haven't won or won't win, but sentiments like this means they kinda have.
The world is a much more dangerous place post 9/11

The security for that will be crazy. They won't cancel it or anything - neither should they - but probably a lot of checks on trains, roads, at the stadiums and police in the streets.

That's all they said, for now.
Weird. Why would the attackers warn them? Or maybe it was someone else?

They just said on Sky News that no arrests have been made.

I don't speak about carrying guns. I mean that we shouldn't be so terrorized by this because this is what they want. They want us to fear to step outside. Which they won't suceed with.
Think it's more to do with getting attention and with affecting a large number of people rather than anything directly to do with sport, then again hard to say for sure. You're talking about one explosion near a football stadium / football match, one hostage situation at a theatre/concert, and a shooting at a restaurant at minimum, perhaps those places were chosen for more than simply that, who knows right now.
Edit: May have misread your post or what you meant, apologies.
Yes. Which probably points to known terrorist cells.
Er, that doesn't sound like a good idea!? Also, source?
Christ, this is a horrible situation.

French medias have been burned by charlie january events coverage.
They will be more cautious now. Expect no update on the hostage situation until is officially over.
I wonder who it could be??!
He said how Hebdo was nothing compared what they expected, what's happening now is a clearer picture of what we/he expects, what experts expected, claimed that most of the shooters are "French" or Muslim immigrants to France, went off about how he wished he could carry his gun, etc.

Hmmm easy, dude.

listen to the mad man
Okay, so the problem is that you are posting a german source which is repeating old french news.
And it's made worse that you don't even know if it's true, you just went ahead and reposted it anyway. So if it was false, now you would have spread false news.
And do what with them? Draw and quarter them too?
RAID not GIGN
Yeah, that was known.
I know it's a little off-topic, but what kind of alerts do you use on your phone? I'd like to have them.

I'm going to guess it wasn't real. More of a "get into the ahead of the team you don't like before the game" type of situation.
So resort to their level?

I feel like a piece of shit that upon hearing that it was a Eagles of Death Metal concert, my first thought was to wonder if the band was OK. I guess it's because it's a group of people that I know of instead of a random person in France, but it made things scarier. I can only hope that the reports that the hostages are being killed off one by one is false, but I fear that it isn't the case.
Condolences to everyone who has died and I hope the authorities stop this before it gets worse and bring those involved to justice. Truly awful.

Pretty much, it's a active situation. Should be media black out re bataclan
Nobody is impressed by this kind of hyperbolic Internet grimness.

I guess he simply means that they know they are islamists.

Just got the news about this, jesus christ this is absolutely horrifying.
Was hearing one of the witnesses in one of the reports telling how the perpetrators were just executing the hostages one by one like goddamn cattle, I feel devastated by just hearing someone having to share such a tragic story.
Prayers go to all innocents involved

which is going to raise questions on how this happened
It was a serious question, there are many extremist groups that can carry this.
