Of course Newt Gingrich had to weigh in about how this wouldn't happen in a place with conceal-carrying citizens.

Goddamn it, Newt.

 

[Clydefrog]

100 dead in the theatre? No, please god no.

 

[Djin1979]

Yea, i ' m watching itélé too, 100 dead ppl only in Bataclan...this is terrible =(

 

[Anion]

Well I guess the pro-guns-agenda-people are out tweeting now: https://twitter.com/newtgingrich/status/665312487147896832?ref_src=twsrc^tfw

Expected from such

 

[Lashley]

I expected bad, but not that bad.

100?

 

[ElTorro]

I am sad and angry that they killed the terrorists. Instant death is way to merciful for this disgusting inhuman scum.

 

[Auctopus]

Is Newt Gingrich a comedian? Or just insane?

 

[trh]

100+ dead in the Bataclan apparently. That's a lot worse than I expected. Absolutely gut wrenching.

BREAKING NEWS : A hundred dead at Bataclan. Cops source on iTélé

Just awful

 

[Fersis]

I'm not in france but I'm so, so scared...

This planet... I'm terrified...

Praying to all of you

Sadly my friend i believe that the downed Russian plane and these attacks are just the start of the Daesh retaliation.
Europe (and the world) is about to have a rough couple of years.

My most sincere wishes for you and everyone there.

 

[sleverfunk]

Shit.

 

[Snaku]

100 dead at the Bataclan? Yeah, I'm definitely going to need a drink tonight. This is just the worst.

BREAKING NEWS : A hundred dead at Bataclan. Cops source on iTélé

OMG!!!

I literally have tears coming from my eyes.

 

[Furyous]

I know it's horrible, but they should not be running...

They should fight for their land.

There's no need for such a horribly insensitive post.

Well Republicans have already started beating their drum. Disgusting.

What change is he looking for exactly? Boots on the ground is a bad idea and not going to work in 2015. Those Dubya war excuses don't hold up to scrutiny in a 24 hour news cycle. In any event, this is incredibly distatesful on Newt's part and distracts from this issue.

 

[R_thanatos]

Goddamit ..
100 hundred dead.

I just can't ..

I'm so angry right now.
I'm going to stop posting and try to deal with this news in some way .

This is just so ...

 

[NateDog]

I actually can't believe the 100, please please don't be true. If it is does it mean that they actually that cold-heartedly silently killed everyone one-by-one or did they fuck with them by throwing explosives too? Fucking hell.

 

[cartoon_soldier]

 

[Insane Metal]

Oh my god this is absolutely heartbreaking.

I don't think I'll be able to sleep tonight. And I don't even live in France. This is driving me nuts :|

 

[fierrotlepou]

Oh my fucking god this is too much. What the fuck man

 

[iceagecoming]

I agree. The leftist side of neogaf is disgusting.

agreed

 

[Cub3h]

This is so sad France's 9/11.

 

[Macho Madness]

Is Newt Gingrich a comedian? Or just insane?

He used to be the second most powerful man in the US 20 years ago.

 

[JawzPause]

I don't agree with the original statement, but wars are won by those who are willing to fight them. If only militant Islamist's are willing to fight what do you think the result will be? A whole lot like what we have seen in Iraq and Syria I imagine.

This is very easy for people sat in their comfy chairs to say, but when it comes to wars civilians should not have to be involved.

Fuck

I really hope that 100 number isn't real, that is horrendous.

 

[TheSeks]

Ugh.

And apparently it is ISIS: https://www.reddit.com/live/vwwnkuplwr9y/updates/a67f8912-8a63-11e5-8dce-0e4c6805a4fb

Can't link the actual tweet since Reddit is being slammed. So I dunno how 100% slam-dunk that is, but I wouldn't be surprised if it is ISIS. Wayyy too coordinated to not be some terrorist group.

https://twitter.com/CherguiaMbark/status/665318017232822274/photo/1

Yeah, that's if SKY is reportable.

Are the attacks over? I heard there was a hostage situation at a concert hall...were the hostages rescued?

The concert hall is (at least from what I've seen on the timeline) mostly cleared/"clear." They have a suspect (if Sky is reputable) saying they're from ISIS. There's at least 7 other(?) areas that may/may not be clear right now. It's not over yet.

[JonnyDBrit]

Jesus christ isn't that basically almost all the hostages they had (with the possibility of differing estimates, or worse, bodies from the initial attack).

 

[Sadist]

Fuck

 

[Magic Mushroom]

Absolutely disgusting.

 

[Djin1979]

and we still dont know if all the terrorists are dead/arrested...

 

[wheeplash]

There has a been a bloodbath inside the theatre.

 

[UnObtainium17]

I hope I will wake up tomorrow to find out this is all a dream.

 

[UnluckyKate]

Dear mother of God. They absolutely succeeded if they wanted fear and panic.

BTW, so there is a real chance that members of The Eagles of Death Metal are dead, isn't there?

 

[Puppet Shadow]

We have all seen the videos man. And yes woman(is this still okay to say) and children make total sense to me. But not men. Defend your land. This is not mean, just truth.

As a man, I'd rather defend my family. Probably by getting us to somewhere safe.

 

[Me_Marcadet]

No one (at least no one sensible) thinks that the refugees are the ones causing these attacks, but people are scared of even a few dozen ISIS terrorists being amongst the actual hundreds of thousands of refugees. With so many refugees that have no paperwork it's not that far fetched to think it's a possibility.

There's also a chance that, because we can't give them job and a nice place to live in, they will perpetuate the hate circle and extremist could use the situation to hide and plan attacks.

Terrorrists are able to plan those operations because we don't interfere with drug cartels and radical clandestine mosque in some districts.

More poverty and suffering will not help the situation.

The drummer contacted the Washington Post and reported that everyone in the band was OK.

OK, at least there is that.

Now allegedly 100s dead in the concert hall only.... Death metal never sounded so ironic.

 

[pompidu]

Leaving this thread. Makes me to sad to read.

I had a feeling the death count would go over 100. =/

 

[MetalFearSolid]

No please no

 

[Hedrush]

Ugh. Unfortunately they had to storm in and try and save who they could. Hopefully, they were able to save many of those whom were still in there and they weren't too late for them all.

Yes, they where executing hostages at random. They had no choice
