What? Doorman at shows should be armed?

I'm not sure why newspapers report on such absurd claims, without a 2nd opinion? This would not happen in other countries.

Did the journalist realize she was being completely disrespectful to people from Paris?

Donald Trump is the most visible and popular Republican in the entire country and has, for months, led the national polls in his quest to become President of the United States. His perspectives on a terrorist attack are extremely important for people so that they can judge what his views and goals are, how he might act as president, and if the Republican party should be trusted to run the country.

I'm sure az will pick this apart, but this is a pretty good overview on what's going on in that god forsaken hell hole as of today. I'm as liberal as they come, but I'm to the point of wanting to turn this area into an oil slick.

There is an extremely NSFW image (unless you work with Julian) floating around of inside the Batalan Theatre. One of the scariest/saddest photos I've ever seen. I'm not sure why I clicked the link.  :(

the last time we got to that point we invaded Iraq and that got us to this point..

moreover, it is not as if we are not attacking ISIS and killing their leaders one by one..but does the solution lie there?? can we kill enough of them fast enough??

We had no reason to invade Iraq. I'd say we have reason(s) to wipe out ISIS.

If it's the same one I saw [which apparently is taken after clean up started] I don't know how more people weren't killed to be honest. I heard an interview with one of the survivors of the theatre attack and they said the attackers just kept firing and reloading and firing for 10 or 15 minutes. So insane. I can't even begin to imagine something like that.

There's also video someone was taking of the show when the gunfire starts. Haven't seen that stuff though. Truly insane.

This is sad but I don't know if it's more sad to see just how immediately people used this to push their political agenda on Friday night. I had to stay off social media to avoid getting more angry about the situation.

Who's paranoid?

I wonder how many reports DC gets a day on terrorist attacks. I saw a lot of people upset that France had gotten notification of an Isis planned attack earlier that morning. I feel like that's not all that uncommon....

Ok. I know that my post wasn't too freedom of press friendly, but living in Europe now and having friends who regularly attend shows in Paris, I felt personally attacked by those remarks in a way not seen since G. Bush. I guess Donald Trump personally attack immigrants every day, so that's probably not new.

"Islam needs reformers, not moderates... The purpose of reform is to change things, fix the system, and move it in a new direction. And to fix something, you have to acknowledge that it's broken - not that it looks broken, or is being falsely portrayed as broken by the wrong people - but that it's broken. That is your first step to reformation.
