Explosions And Shootings In Paris

[jno]

18 people killed. Co-ordinated maybe?

[Jackdaw33]

Fact 1. There has been mass slaughter in Paris.

Fact 2. The perpetrators are Muslim.

How many more facts do you require?

[Quizproquo]

Reading the story though, it seems those images might not be connected. I hope not

I wonder if it would be more diplomatic if everyone here on this thread just agreed to stop discussing it and go off line to watch the live news-feed.

[Zacs-Master]

Anyway, it's time for those of with the privilidge of democracy and freedom of speech to bid everyone a safe good night. For the record, I abhor the events in Paris and the perpetrators (whoever they prove to be) but I also abhor speculation. Sleep,safe,everyone ( and I REALLY mean that).

[Quizproquo]

I don't think anyone is disputing the facts Jackdaw.

Good night Zacs

Without a doubt some things will be reported that turn out to be wrong but as mikey is fond of saying 'Don't shoot the messenger'


The jungle story is interesting. I was actually thinking to myself earlier ... will this horrific attack on Paris make the French get tough on the jungle by dismantling it. (I'm not suggesting that the authorities are responsible for the fire)

Deputy Mayor of Calais confirms the jungle is on fire.

This was 2 days ago so matters across Europe may escalate:

I anticipate lots of drunken amateur speculation and then hostility will ensue here while all this nastiness is going on there, hence my previous suggestion ...I'll leave you all to it and see if this thread still exists in the morning!

-------------------
I don't attend work 'drunk', it's rather frowned upon in the Operating Theatre.

And I don't drink alcohol in the house and I have not been to the pub.

[Answerprancer]

Well I do and I'm on my third so I'm going off to watch one of those comedy gems Canary listed last night - bye diddly eye!

[baza]

Watching the news and reading the comments on here all I can say is we will know more later when the dust settles.

[SirOracle]

I was due to go to Paris today for a few days but obviously have cancelled .

[-Talbot-]

I was going to the Euro's next year with my eldest son and a few mates, Sir O.
Probably still will but it did occur that the 2016 Euros may be a target.

[SirOracle]

Anywhere could be a target Talbot,with these nutters involved.

[ChillDoubt]

I would imagine security for the tournament will be unprecedented and probably the safest event in recent history.

You must stop posting links to drunken amateur speculation, Talbot.
