Terrorist attack on Furry convention

Postby Tmutarakhan » Sun Dec 07, 2014 5:07 pm

I can't believe NSG doesn't have a thread on this. Someone attacked the Furry convention in the middle of the night with chlorine gas:

Nineteen hospitalized

So: who would be that upset at the furries? Bronies who think they're just too weird? Fundamentalist Christians who consider them perverts?

I put my bets that it is a disgrunted furry who got chucked out by security for some reasonable cause.
Life is a tragedy to those who feel, a comedy to those who think, and a musical to those who sing.

I am the very model of a Nation States General,
I am a holy terror to apologists Confederal,
When called upon to source a line, I give citations textual,
And argue about Palestine, and marriage homosexual!

In capitalism, you pretty much have a 50/50 chance of being rich or poor. In communism, it's 1/99. What makes people think they have the luck/skill to become the 1% if they can't even succeed in a 50/50 society???

Not In Character. This is General.


I think that everything about this is horrible. Both the attack and the Furries bunch of weirdos

Its a bloody terrorist attack on innocents. It's a sad world when people can't even participate in their chosen hobbies without someone trying to do them harm. How can anyone condone this?

Oh god, I thought this was an International Incidents thread at first.
This is much worse. My people are under attack. I shall have to get my shotgun.

Seems outside the modus operandi of most groups that target furries (aka 4chan and Anonymous), who generally seem to be more in-it-for-the-lulz (I admit, furries are very easily trolled) rather than legitimately antagonistic. Probably either moral guardians who regard it as some sort of bestiality convention or a random nutjob. Or some idiot who took anti-furry statements way more seriously than they actually are.

Indeed. We are supposed to be free men allowed to like what we like. Whoever did this must suffer the same fate as the victims. An eye for an eye.

Anthropomorphic animals. I find that RationalWiki has the most informative and balanced article on the subject: Link
