French Attacks Megathread

[Lipnitia]

Nope. Check out 1:03 till about 1:11

I listened it to it. I don't hear it.

Crank the volume up

[Olerand]

I listened it to it. I don't hear it.

Never before has the far-right in France committed anything like this. And it's not the far-left. So I can rather strongly conclude, as Barack Obama and François Hollande have, that this is the IS.

[Ostroeuropa]

Though this will strengthen the right.

Maybe. Hopefully not.

It will. Because of the problems I outlined.
We'll have SJWs all over the news whining and victim blaming and holding blatant double standards representing the left wing and no-platforming leftists who disagree with their nonsense.
Fine.
You won't give us a platform, we'll fuck off to the right wing and join them instead. They'll certainly give us a platform to say that Leftist authoritarian racism and sexism is so extreme that fucking communists are joining the conservatives.

[BalkanWarrior]

By what are muslims this time offended?

[Smoya]

How awful. My condolences to the loved ones of the victims, you'll be in my prayers.

Has there been anyone taking responsibility yet?

[Planita]

Goodbye liberal, leftist Europe. It was nice knowing you.

Here comes the National Front.

And what does that have anything to do with the post you're replying to?

...Because a. I never made that claim and b. Jumping to conclusions on the attackers identity is a bad thing.

[The Hobbesian Metaphysician]

Gross.

There's no tragedy so bad it can't be used to drive a xenophobic agenda.

Guess people honestly don't learn when it comes to the far right.

Then again this is an entirely different generation which didn't experience the twenties, and thirties so how could they know?

TRANSLATION
not to feel in my country to be qualified constantly racist and intolerant
to see my people and my culture disappear
to hear " no confusion " at each attack not to be safe in my country
paris to see a fire and blood

PLUS
HOSTAGES BEING KILLED ONE BY ONE

A more accurate translation would be :

"I'm sick and tired
to feel a stranger in my own country, to be called constantly racist and intolerant
to see my people and my culture disappear
to hear "not every "..." " at each attack, to not feel safe in my own country
to see Paris being plundered again and again"

Apologies, I had to use google translate for some of it.

Goodbye liberal, leftist Europe. It was nice knowing you.

This is exactly what I'm worried about attacks like this transforming Europe into another America.

Eh, no.
European right wing is different from American right wing.

[Risottia]

Dude: Miramas ammunition depot of the French Army, July 7th.

Highly probable; but that was a one time occurrence. Most other weapons, for gangs and such, come from Eastern Europe.

Could be. Smuggling via sea, could also be.
Anyway, if not even the military ammo depots are safe, there's no much point if trying and preventing criminals to get military-grade weapons. Hence, they must be caught when they've got them but before they use them - which, again, isn't very easy to do.

To clarify, America hasn't banned the burqa or the construction of minarets. Europe already did. Before you bash America, might want to know what the fuck is going on in the world, bro.

[Havenburgh]

Yeah, you would think somebody would have cracked down after the last attack. Is the French government asleep at the wheel?

On sleeping pills, really.

Depends.
If you use the army to provide more muscle for the police forces - thus freeing the police for the investigation job while the military controls the territory - it's useful. It worked fine against the Mafia in Sicily some 25 years ago.

But this would never fly in France. If the government declares martial law, the FN will sweep the elections next month.

What matters more, winning elections to stay in power or keeping your damn country safe and stopping more people from dying? I would say the latter

[Lydan]

Goodbye liberal, leftist Europe. It was nice knowing you.

I wouldn't say the left is dead just yet. But I'd say do this a few more times and it will be beaten back some.

It's definitely going to level the playing field. Maybe ISIS or even the Assad regime coordinated it to force Europe to stop accepting refugees.

[Olerand]

And what does that have anything to do with the post you're replying to?

...Because a. I never made that claim and b. Jumping to conclusions on the attackers identity is a bad thing.

True. The far-right in France is notorious for its use of suicide bombers.

[Lipnitia]

By what are muslims this time offended?

They hate their extremists as they are usually not distinguished from them by opposing sides.

*shudders*

Worst of this is that:
• Geert Wilders (wants to deport all Muslims (even if they are fully integrated and loyal to NL, wants to go out of the euro)
• Viktor Órban (wanted to impose a hefty internet tax and such, built a fence),
• Le Pen (antisemitist, anti-islamist)
• UKIP/BNP (wants to go out of the EU, discriminatory)
• and even more (excuse me, other co-Europeans, if I haven't mentioned your far-right politicians)

all would gain seats due to this... In our country, Wilders would already have 36 seats - he would be the biggest party.

I really hate this. When far-right or far-left parties are taking over my country, I'm going in the resistance. And I mean that. I want to live in a free country, not an oppressed 'democratic reich-republic' country or such.

Excusez-moi... My emotions are too heated up. I'm going away briefly.

[Eol Sha]

Blame the person who planted the seed ten years ago. Bush.

This has been going on long before Obama and long before bush and before Clinton and before Reagan.

A lot of the discontent can probably be traced back to Sykes-Picot.

[The Celtic British Isles]

By what are muslims this time offended?

don't know what the terrorists are angry about
don't know if the terrorists are muslims (but some signs do point to them being muslims)

[Galloism]

Actually, weed would be quite a bit harder to smuggle than grenades.

(Although both are smuggled often enough)

No, it's not.

Yes it is. Bomb sniffing dogs exist, but disguising the smell of explosive residue on a sealed grenade is quite a bit easier than disguising the smell of weed from drug sniffing dogs.

Then you put them in a shipping container that's filled with lots of metal roundish things, and unless that container is searched (which happens randomly), it'll slide right through with no one the wiser.

[Alyakia]

Maybe. Hopefully not.

It will. Because of the problems I outlined.

people are being massacre but oh no SJWs

No problems ^^

I seriously doubt there was a coordination and Assad wouldn't want to be anywhere near this.
