[QUOTE=TheTalon;49112298]They can try. American police don't stand around when there's an active shooter. They get their asses in gear and do what needs to be done[/QUOTE] yes a mass shooting has never successfully taken place in the US [QUOTE=Ridge;49112333]So do the citizens. They might be able to detonate a few bombs and get some shots off, but there wouldn't be any long shootouts or the like in the US.[/QUOTE] youre delusional

[QUOTE=danjee;49112328]To create terror. Wow that's where the word terrorism comes from.[/QUOTE] The real question is what the hell these people are trying to accomplish other then force a war

Breakdown of what happened. There were seven different attacks, with at least six shootings and three explosions. Shootings were reported around the Rue de la Fontaine-au-Roi, Rue de Charonne, and Rue Bataclan. Petit Cambodge and Le Carillon shooting A shooting at the Petit Cambodge restaurant in the 10th arrondissement of Paris killed four people. The assailants also shot people outside a bar called Le Carillon near the Canal Saint-Martin. According to the Associated Press who quoted a police official, 11 people were killed at the restaurant. Bataclan theatre siege The Bataclan theatre in 2011 Shootings and hostage takings occurred at the Bataclan theatre in the 11th arrondissement of Paris where the American rock band Eagles of Death Metal were playing. Jesse Hughes, the band's frontman, escaped via the backstage. Between 60 and 100 hostages were taken. Someone who escaped the attack told a journalist that the attackers mentioned Syria and that there were five or six attackers. There were further attacks reported on police and first responders who arrived at the scene after initial reports of shooting inside the theatre. One of the attackers at the Bataclan had explosives, according to a police officer at the scene. Julien Pierce, a journalist from Europe 1, says that he saw armed men enter the Bataclan, saying that there were two or three not wearing masks who came in and fired blindly on the crowd. A police raid later took place at the Bataclan, resulting in the death of two or three attackers and cessation of the hostage situation. It was completed at 00:58. The police reported that approximately 100 people had been killed at the theatre. Stade de France explosion At least 10 people were injured or killed in an explosion at a bar near the Stade de France in the Paris suburb of Saint-Denis. The President of France, François Hollande, was at the Stade de France attending an international friendly football match between France and Germany. Hollande was safely evacuated from the scene and met with the French interior minister Bernard Cazeneuve to coordinate a response to the emergency. The match was being broadcast on live television. Following the game, fans were brought onto the pitch to await evacuation as police monitored all exits from the venue. Forum des Halles shopping mall explosion and shooting A shooting and bombing was reported at the Forum des Halles shopping mall in central Paris.

[QUOTE=Coyoteze;49112332]To spread terror. [I]Also, bait and switch. Say you strike one place, then strike another.[/I][/QUOTE] Well yeah, that's my point.

Really opens your eyes to how low humanity can really reach sometimes, how such needless brutality is often seen as the best action by ignorant people. Those people had normal lives, probably were going to do normal things today but those lives were ended by greedy people trying to make a point in the exact wrong way.

[QUOTE=D3vils Buddy;49112223]Reports on BBC, hostages were shot one by one then a grenade was thrown at them just before the police entered.[/QUOTE] With no insensitive intentions, if the terrorists needed to rack a high kill number, obviously single shots to the head would be the most efficient way to kill. Having media access (via some devices) and getting wind of GIGN about to storm them, they used grenades for some easy kills. Again, I'm not a cold-hearted bastard, but with a limited amount of bullets and not alot of time per kill, this was their quickest "answer". Dunno if they would release the exact kill details, but I'm mostly certain the 1-by-1 died of headshots.

[QUOTE=rampageturke 2;49112313]old pics[/QUOTE] a lot of people confirming it on twitter though, but it could be fake idk.

"During the police's storm [of the Bataclan], one terrorist was killed by the RAID, but 2 committed suicide by detonating their bomb belts, according to a police official on iTele."

Stay strong my friends. Show no fear.

Here's hoping this next year isn't a famous one in human history, if you catch my meaning...

Holy fucking shit 158 people confirmed dead

[QUOTE=Scot;49112337]yes a mass shooting has never successfully taken place in the US youre delusional[/QUOTE] Who said mass shootings don't happen. The French police stood around and organized while a shooting was ongoing. American police don't do that. When they arrive on scene with an active shooter popping hostages the last thing they do is stand around waiting on backup

[QUOTE=_Axel;49112300]Probably bullshit, what's the point in announcing where you're going to strike next? So that your opponent can be better prepared?[/QUOTE] Freebie dosage of terror

[QUOTE=TheTalon;49112298]They can try. American police don't stand around when there's an active shooter. They get their asses in gear and do what needs to be done[/QUOTE] Yeah a lot of police forces have announced they're mobilizing in the big events occurring in the US tomorrow (Rose Bowl, etc.). I'm sure the ones in major cities are going on alert as well, just not saying it.

BBC live stream lost audio / stopped?

[QUOTE=Scot;49112276]Apparently ISIS announced on twitter that they're going to attack London, Rome and Washington next but I have a feeling it's bullshit.[/QUOTE] I hope it is. My sister is in London right now and I'm not far from DC.

Honestly you're taking in hundreds of thousands of people known for doing this kind of shit to each other what do you expect to happen?

Don't let them scare us.

[QUOTE=Scot;49112276]Apparently ISIS announced on twitter that they're going to attack London, Rome and Washington next but I have a feeling it's bullshit.[/QUOTE] Surely you can't just give us "apparently". Source man come on

This is just unreal, all the information coming in. I apologize if someone's already asked this but what I'm wondering right now is, if this has actually been done by ISIS might France invoke Article 5 of NATO like the US did in 9/11?

My girlfriend went on a much deserved holiday with her work friends to Disneyland Paris yesterday, got a text saying she and her friends were literally about to get on the bus into Paris before large amounts of armed police and soldiers came hurtling past. Been glued to the news all night. For the love of God I hope they catch the gunmen soon.

[QUOTE=JohnnyMo1;49112375]I hope it is. My sister is in London right now and I'm not far from DC.[/QUOTE] I'm going to London this Christmas, kinda unnerving since it sounds like a great time to strike for them.

Police stood fifteen feet from the open door of the library while the shooters pumped round after round into the students hiding under desks inside. Not only CAN it happen here, it has.

You know the saddest part about the day after? That the drums of war will be played, people will demand blood, and those who will try to reason and argument against it, will be bullied and looked upon down by the media and most people.
