Hi everyone,
Those who listen to the news may know it : yesterday, late at night, terrorist fusillades started at many places in Paris (a theater, the Stadium of France, streets and cafes...). 127 people at least have been killed, and 250 have been injured.
There aren't any explanations for such acts. I don't understand why people kill other people. I don't understand why people think they're so right that they have the power of life and death, over someone else's life. I don't understand how people can shot defenceless people. There are no words to express how I feel.
We are all scared and stunned... Hopefully I don't live in Paris, but it's not far from my home, I was supposed to go there next month with school... Many artists I know live there anyway, and I was happy to see they're alright...
Well, I just wanted to express my feelings...
My avatar'll be in black as long as I feel it should be.
You can do the same if you want to.

Allow me to explain. *People* don't kill people. Nutjobs kill people. What you see is the work of crazies, fanatics, whack-a-doodles with a mental disease, rabid animals if you will, not *people*. *People* don't act this way.
Imo, they should be shot on sight, no questions asked. You don't attempt to cuddle and hug a rabid dog, or excuse why it's trying to rip your throat out...you put it out of it's misery immediately so it can't spread the disease.
As long as these types exist, there will be death, there will be atrocities, there will be horror, and there will be war.
The PC herds want the borders wide open. Personally, I want them slammed shut and illegal immigration shut down as much as possible. The sooner, the better. TRUMP 2016.
I feel and understand your pain. 100% support for France from the U.S.

I agree. They're not normal people, they're not people at all. The only "good thing" of yesterday is that 8 of the killers died too.
Yet I don't feel like closing all the borders is the right thing to do. Many illegal migrants are coming in Europe for the moment, escaping from war and death in Syria. 99,999% of them are not dangerous and just want a safe place where to live. (If you're on facebook, you should have a look at the page "Humans of Amsterdam", they share stories of people living there, and lately they've shared many migrants' stories from Syria... Life is impossible there, and I'm happy they can all come in Europe...)
But the point is, why did they have guns ? Why are guns still allowed in our country when you see how much people it can kill ? Government should really do something about it.
Anyway, thank you very much for the support <3

Donald Trump is crazy. Why would anyone vote for him? The only thing he's good at is making a fool of himself. Go sit in a corner and rethink your political stance. Don't get me wrong, I am a republican, but I know for a fact, Obama could have ran this country better, and BOY am I glad he is leaving! What I'm basically saying is this: Trump + President = All out nuclear war. I can guarantee it. Same goes for Hillary.

Please don't be offensive towards someone else's political views. Saying 'go sit in a corner and rethink your political stance' is extremely rude and derogatory. Also, do remember the president is more so a figurehead. It's Congress that ultimately makes the decisions.
As for what happened to Paris, that really is a terrible thing. Yet, it is unsurprising - at least to me - that it has happened. France kept their borders open, did not check, or take any precautions. The terrorists had such an easy time of getting in, compared to the united states. Here, we check. Here, we have everything tapped. Here, they can't get away with it. Hopefully, France will start checking, and will start participating in this fight.

I agree, completely. Terrorists probably think it's right and do these thins for fun. There have been so manty terrorist attack throughout the world and most people try to do something about it but not focus on the main thing. Why not make guns illegal and probably save a bunch of people.
Some terrorists just go mad, get a gun, and then start shooting. It brings up a memory from when I was younger. I feel very sad that actually happened. Maybe let's wait and see if they ever get caught and don't blame me but I want that if they ever get caught they will face the harshest punishment.

*quietly stands in a corner and tries to understand everything*
The only thing I have ever known is that others killing others sucks... :C
I usually stand in the gray section of matters...
Love and support to all in Paris. <3

Have to agree with you there, Crystal. Best stay in the gray section, lest a political or other form of debate starts... topics like these tend to start such... Still, condolences for those in Paris, especially those who lost loved ones in the attack. Best wishes for everyone there! But the French are resilient people, they will pull through. They've faced worse. But nevertheless, condolences and I wish everyone there the best.

I don't have to rethink anything and I don't need a corner to do it in either. lmao
I like Donald Trump's kind of crazy. I like the fact that he is not a corrupt politician, I like the fact that he's totally in your face and tells it like it is in this world full of sniveling PC crybabies, I like the fact that he has decades of business sense and experience under his belt, and I absolutely LOVE the fact that he can't be bought and doesn't give a crap what people think. I like the fact that he has the spine to say what so many people are thinking about immigration. I think his plans are sound. God bless America, where we all have a right to our opinions. lol
But this isn't a political debate, so...

Agreed. And no, this newest nightmare didn't surprise me one bit. And when these kinds of things start to go down in Germany, or anywhere these fanatics go, and it will, sure as the sun will rise, it won't surprise me either. France in no way deserved this horror show, but I agree about the borders. If you're going to throw them wide open, the cockroaches will crawl in with everyone else, especially if you're not bothering to do extensive checks.
Make no mistake. Extremists are already here in the U.S.
