kinuta Posted November 14, 2015 Report Share Posted November 14, 2015 Terrible indeed. I wish I could agree that thoughts and prayers are enough. I feel like venting my outrage with a revenge filled rant but will restrain myself in the name of board civility. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hardbopjazz Posted November 14, 2015 Report Share Posted November 14, 2015 (edited) Yes, my thoughts and prayers to people in Paris.  The French will tighten  surveillance.  But you  cant watch everyone.  Edited November 14, 2015 by Hardbopjazz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSngry Posted November 14, 2015 Report Share Posted November 14, 2015 Minding your own business and having somebody pop up out of nowhere and fuck you up at random just because you're there and just because they can is never cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brownie Posted November 14, 2015 Report Share Posted November 14, 2015 It was a rough  night.  Listened  to the news on the  radio, also to the sound of ambulances  rushing victims to hospitals. It's a new day.... calling  friends  to make sure everybody is  all right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Lark Ascending Posted November 14, 2015 Report Share Posted November 14, 2015 Utterly dreadful. Started to hear about it on the World Service through the night. Very moved by the pictures I'm seeing this morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidewinder Posted November 14, 2015 Report Share Posted November 14, 2015 (edited) Small comfort but at least more than a few of them will now be constantly chasing their own tails and getting paranoid over airborne noises.

jazzbo Posted November 14, 2015 Report Share Posted November 14, 2015 It's scary to hear a commentator refer to this as "the new normal." A frightening evening, a horror for thousands, and I hope we don't see more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim R Posted November 14, 2015 Report Share Posted November 14, 2015 Our wonderful and talented daughter graduated a few years ago from California State University Long Beach with a degree in design, and is now a professional in architectural/interior design.  She is so precious to us, and we are so proud of her. I just read that the first victim of these senseless murders identified as being from the U.S. was Nohemi Gonzalez, a 23 year old senior design student at California State University Long Beach. http://www.nydailynews.com/news/world/paris-lawyer-victim-identified-terror-attacks-article-1.2435000 As if all of this wasn't heartbreaking enough, this makes it hit even harder for me.  RIP Nohemi, and condolences to all of the grieving families and friends. Brownie, it's always good to see you posting here, even (or perhaps especially) under these circumstances.  So glad you were not hurt.

GA Russell Posted November 14, 2015 Report Share Posted November 14, 2015 CNN reported earlier that the French President declared it to be an act of war. I guess we'll know soon what response, if any, will be made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
