Toulouse Shootings

[rockyracoon]

Just watching Sky news, it seems the French police have cornered a suspect in a house, 2 police offers have been shot. Apparently he has an Uzi and Kalashnikovs, let's hope he doesn't have the ammunition to use them. He told negotiators that he'll surrender this afternoon, how will they get him out if he doesn't? It's not going to end well is it?

Oh come on - AOG reported these quotes:

// could be right wing or Iranian //
and
/// It could be a right wing nutter because the victims are Jewish, ///

whereas the full quote were:

// could be right wing or Iranian //
and
// It could be a right wing nutter because the victims are Jewish, or it could be a terrorist cell in a revenge attack for the Afghanistan murders by that American soldier //

That's a misrepresentation of the original quotes.

And at the time, the French authorities WERE looking at the possibility that these were Neo-Nazi attacks - so whoever posted those thoughts was simply being unbiased.

First quote should've read:

// could be right wing //
