I know it may be against the forum rules, but I thought it was worth sharing.
Also, I'd like to quote Lamb of God's Randy Blythe
[quote][b]drandallblythe[/b] To say that I am saddened/disgusted/angered/shocked/horrified by what happened inside this club & elsewhere in Paris tonight doesn't cut it- I don't even know how to say what I feel.
This hits really close to home for many of my close friends.
I've played Bataclan on more than one occasion, as recently as 2013.
We just did a bunch of the same Euro festivals as EODM this last summer.
Now there are over 100 people dead inside that club who just wanted to see a rock show.
We are in the UK on tour right now, & we were supposed to take the ferry to France w/all our gear in a few days to continue on through mainland Europe- the French border is closed, so that obviously won't be happening- we'll be figuring out logistics so we can continue on.
My heart hurts for everyone affected by this- it just aches & aches & aches.
I don't understand the level of hatred it takes to do something like this- I just don't.
And while I am certainly glad that the men who attacked everyone in that club are dead, & am hopeful that all involved in the Paris attacks will found, questioned, (and, quite frankly, put down like the rabid dogs that they are), I refuse to let these bestial men MAKE ME give them hatred in return.
I will not sink to their level- they are not worth it- this is my life, this is what I choose to do, & I will be the one to decide what I allow to let live within my heart- ME, not some misguided cowards with automatic weapons.
Blind hate is what brought this about in the first place- I choose not let that live in me, because then these animals have taken away my control over my own life.
My prayers are indeed with Paris, and with all the people at Bataclan tonight- band, crew, club employees, & concert goers.
This is just beyond sad.
I also pray for justice to be served, & that it is swift & merciless, because these thugs deserve no mercy.
But somehow, SOMEHOW, there has to be a way to make this sort of thing stop, to stop the hatred at the root- otherwise it will just continue, & everyone loses.
I don't know what the way to stop this ignorance is, but I won't feed it with my own hate.
The human race has to do better than this- something's gotta change, y'all.[/quote]

I really thought the woman hanging there would fall down.
Jesus christ put some NSFW tags on this at least, there are dead and dieing people in the video.

The NSFW label, along with the disclaimer at the beginning of the video ought to be self-explanatory...
I hope Oskar made it.

Did you think a video of a terrorist attack was going to be pleasant or something
The guy lying in the street has his phone out at 0:56, this is heartbreaking
That video just leaves me speechless. Just knowing you can't do shit to help..
Apparently the journalist went down to help after that video. He then got shot in the hand, assumably the shooter was taking shots from a window.

He was shouting 'au secours', I believe, which means 'help me'.
