someone streamed it live on periscope [URL]https://www.periscope.tv/w/1OyJAmadvzDJb[/URL]
Well that's no good, I got nothing on major news in the US so I guess I'll have to wait for French news to fill me in on the details. I hope the injury and casualty list doesn't get any bigger than it is now.

a guy who was in the bar was being interviewed on BBC news and the reporter was being insensitive as fuck, constantly asking him how many dead bodies he could see and if they were still there even after the guy said he was really shaken up
Any news on if it's an Islamist attack?
Oh fuck this is a pretty large terrorist attack, French president was at a stadium near the bar
Telegraph is now saying that there were grenade explosions at the Stade de France game, BFMTV is saying there are "several dead."

As soon as soemthing terrible happens, they immediately start to search for victims and witnesses and start to squeeze as much gruesome informations out of them as possible to try to turn it into $$$ for them. They do not care at all for the victims and are only interested into blowing the thing up and cause as much controversy as possible in order to rake in all that Ad money.

at least 18 confirmed dead
18 dead, and hostages taken at the concert house bataclan, according to swedish news..
Both explosions were "confirmed" suicide bombs, unknown death toll, restaurant alone is 18 deaths [URL]https://twitter.com/stefandevries/status/665284330789433345[/URL] [editline]a[/editline] You can see a lot of people leaving the stadium if you watch the game. [editline]a[/editline] Islamic attack, unknown who did it. Although we probably all know who's behind it.
Maybe its ISIS?
Fuck, it is right outside the Stade de France too, where France-Germany is playing at the moment. All spectators are being kept inside at the moment, aren't allowed to leave due to this. President Hollande, who had been attending the game, apparently evacuated from the Stadium already.
France is about to jump to extremist politics. I can feel it.
My mom was supposed to go to Paris this weekend. luckily she didn't. god this is just really, really awfull.

Commentator for the France/Germany game said that nobody is allowed to leave the stadium after the game has finished. ah apparently they are seems a little risky imo
Oh my godness. This is incredible. I don't have words.
"30 dead" according to AFP. [editline]a[/editline] "60 people" currently being held hostage at concert hall (BBC) [URL]https://twitter.com/BBCkatyaadler/status/665284746239418370[/URL] It's a big one.
France just won't be left alone I feel extreme measures being taken soon, and that's no good
Fuck it not again Fuck off Fuck this shit
[QUOTE=SebiWarrior;49110579]France just won't be left alone I feel extreme measures being taken soon, and that's no good[/QUOTE] Something tells me that this, the kebab ban, and the "antisemitism" ban is driving France towards Zionism.
60 hostages being held in a concert hall
Could have been an assassination attempt at Hollande and other public figures in the stadium.
[url=https://twitter.com/BBCkatyaadler/status/665284746239418370]A BBC reporter says[/url] that there are around 60 people in the Bataclan concert hall in a hostage situation.
Maybe finally people will realize that we have to wipe out the middle east
[QUOTE=croguy;49110597]Could have been an assassination attempt at Hollande and other public figures in the stadium.[/QUOTE] Unlikely. The explosions happened right beside the stadium in a crowded market and a bar.
