Everyone is safe though I'm more worried about my dad's colleagues ( he has two hundreds of them to worry about ). Oh that must be nervewrecking. Hope it will be allright. I have been to Nice many times and the boulevard is such a fun and beatiful part off the city. It will now forever has a dark side to it. Lots of kids were there as well. What a horrible thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dontdamnmeuyi2015 Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 Saw CNN with the coverage of the Paris attack. Just terrible. the French police did their best and stopping the truck driver before he could crash the truck with the explosives in it was impressive. Unfortunately the driver was able to kill 85 people and wounding hundreds more before he was stopped. This attack of terrorism is very hard to foresee or stop. This is what ISIS has been preaching on the internet and it seems more and more lone wolves are listening to their call. When you are not afraid to die for a cause you believe in, what is there left to threaten you with? These crazy savages believe they are going to another life. I only wish I could see their faces when they realize that's not the case. In the meantime more and more attacks seem to happen and more and more people suffer because of it. There's no way to fully stop a group of people who are hell bent on destroying anything other than their own crazy beliefs. For one that you kill, there are many many more behind them waiting for their chance. Just sad and terrifying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
st0n3r Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 (edited) So the Berlin Christmas market now. A Pakistani asylum seeker who came in last year. #WirSchaffenDas?

maynard Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 Brazilian media saying a 'truck' attacked and killed people in Berlin. No, filthy leftist media, it was not a truck, it was a Muslim Terrorist. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lio Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 I'm starting to wonder if it's an irresponsible risk to take my daughter to the Christmas market later this week. I'll still do it though. I have often wondered about that too, what a world this has become. Funny thing is, my daughter doesn't even notice the soldiers with heavy weapons. It always gives me a shock, even if I should be used to them by now, but to my daughter, this is already normal, part of what the city's like.

Lio Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 Apparently they don't have the right guy. I can't believe this much time was wasted on this refugee. Ugh, apparently he had a bunch of different names, which made the questioning and investigation difficult. It reminds me of that stupid PhD student last summer who went out in Brussels with 30 degree weather in a winter coat with wires sticking out. It took hours and hours before it was clear he was a student doing some kind of research Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt the number of radicals are limited in number and every time one dies there are less to be concerned about....new members are recruited everyday so there will never be a lack of radicals to carry on the cause.....

Anyone who told you plowing a truck moving at 60 miles per hour (or more) into a crowd isn't an effective tactic for mass murder has never observed it. They have done it before and will do it again. We don't need to ban trucks, we need a five year ban -- at minimum -- on all immigration. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Axl owns dexter Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 I don't even know what else can be said at this point. The more of these attacks that occur, the stronger the anti-immigrant right in Europe will become. It's going to hard to sell open immigration (especially with the Muslim world) with these attacks.

Dan H. Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 Is the guy who shot the ambassador technically a terrorist? I'd say political assassin is more accurate. Terrorism generally involves mass murder of civilians, yes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
