Truly ugly stuff man, I wouldn't even print it here. I didn't think the woman could sink any lower in my eyes but she found a way. She is a loathsome, despicable creature. I concur. |

Reading Ann Coulter politicize this tragedy almost makes me as angry as the event it self. I agree! I flipped back and forth between CNN And Fox watching the developments (I like to make sure I get the whole story) and it was ridiculous that Fox had people on basically saying 'I told you so' WHILE showing footing of ambulances. This is why people hate you, guys. |

Anderson Cooper and the CNN guests were calmly and rationally discussing the events, while I noted to my wife that everyone on Fox was angry and yelling. |

I expect that nobody at Fox said "if president Dubya hadn't stupidly fucked it up in Iraq, none of this would be happening today"? Fox News is truly an agent of darkness in this world, whether it realizes it or not. By pushing a xenophobic, ignorant and hateful agenda on pretty much every issue, it encourages the public to think with its gut instead of its head. And if we know that the head produces thought, we also know what the gut produces. |

Ann's antics are beginning to hijack this thread.
I'm more interested in how France will retaliate.

I really hope we'll sever our ties with Qatar and Saudi as much as possible and end the double standard, nless they start taking responsability and action in Syria, and sever their ties with terrorist organisation radically.

Switched to BBC (cuz CNN is a nuisance with those prolonged worldwide weather updates) and France has begun airstrikes on targets in Syria.

Unfortunately, Coulter doesn't have a monopoly on stupid, bigoted crap. Sunday the Green Bay Packers observed a moment of silence in respect for the dead and wounded in the cowardly attacks in France. During the moment of silence, some moron screamed out an anti-Muslim slur that was audible all the way down to the field. Our quarterback Aaron Rodgers denounced the fool in his post game interview.
In other news, 20 US governors (including our idiot-in-chief, Scott Walker) have come out saying that they intend to refuse entry into their states by any Syrian refugees, in case ISIS members try to sneak in. Granted, any ISIS low-lifes should be refused entry, but what about the thousands that are just trying to get out of Syria to survive? Improve the screening process to try to weed ISIS out, sure, but virtually all of these refugees are just innocent victims of these same cowards.

I just saw this on the news and nearly cried. That's seriously the most French reaction to the attack that I've seen so far, it sums up what is great about that nation. |

An ISIS low-life is not likely to reveal himself as that, the strategy would be to 'blend in' and look just as beleaguered and downtrodden as genuine refugees. SCENARIO: 7 of them come in, praising America openly but silently wishing to seize the White House, cut off Obama's head and turn the USA into a Muslim province. Hardly likely in the long haul but in the short term, bombs go off, Americans die, and the scum hide among their own to remain indistinguishable. I can't blame the hard ass Governors for not wanting them around. Humanitarian or not. Your people will get killed. And what then? Another France? I'm intrigued that Anonymous has stepped in. |

from Emma Lazarus' New Colossus and inscribed on the Statue of Liberty-If we lose that ideal because of the efforts of terrorists like ISIS, then they have won even if another life is never lost. They will have changed who we are, what America is, and made us less than who we should be. Fear will have won, and that is their ultimate goal. I say spit in their eye and say fear will never rule us.

Anonymous does nothing, they'll just out twiter accounts... Anonymous isn't an "organized" organisation, it's just sandbox playing. I wonder how you picture the actual arrival of refugees at the border... Terrorists won't present themselves at the borders, it's way too risky, they'll just try to pass invisibly. All the terrorist so far identified from those attacks were french born. Paranoia can be as dangerous... Off to Paris in less than 5 hours!!! Yay! |
