jhulud Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 Dave, you put it the best way. Thank you. I saw this posted all over online and figured the best hashtag for some nerds like me is #MetalheadsUnitedWorldwide Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
̮ ɤ ̮ Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 This is so surreal. Earlier that day there was a threat against the German soccer team, so they got evacuated. Luckily it was just a false alarm, but still there was this weird feeling afterall. During the actual game you could hear clearly an explosion, but nobody really knew where it came from. It wasn't in the stadium, still it's a miracle that nobody panicked after what happened to Charlie Hebdo. I'm sorry for the victims and their families and I'm afraid of where this will lead us. It definitely adds fuel to the fire and nationalists like the Front National (FN) will gain even more popularity. Xenophobia is the last thing we need, while we have to deal with the whole refugees issues. hzielaskowski 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shitty Rambo Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 Over 100 people are dead and you're worried about xenophobia? Jesus dude, every single time there's a tragic event being discussed on these boards someone has to nit-pick what other people say/think/feel. Let's all just be cool to each other for once. slinch and deafening 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kjkenney Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 Over 100 people are dead and you're worried about xenophobia?its a big word but you can figure out its complete relevance, I'm sure. laralaurent 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
̮ ɤ ̮ Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 Over 100 people are dead and you're worried about xenophobia? Obviously you didn't get the point. The problem is, that will end in even more hate and more dead people. I don't know how well informed you are regarding the whole refugee issue, but the situation here in Europe is very tense. There has been violence against asylum seeking people, building have been set on fire and tragedies like yesterday will even worse the situation. It's sad to say this, but I'm afraid that this is just the beginning of a vicious cycle of hate (on both sides). hzielaskowski 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soundofsilver Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 "Human beings are the only creatures on Earth that claim a god, and the only living thing that behaves like it hasn't got one" (borrowed) I wonder if we will see changes at venues here in the U.S.? Can't imagine what, just if. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No wall of text will correctly express my feelings about all of this and humans in general. so, I'll just leave this here.

Mars Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 Such a sad thing. obviously, any terrorism is. I think that for many of us that didn't have any personal connection, it still feels very personal, because it happened during a concert: a place where we generally feel safe and happy, part of a collective of humanity, enjoying shared experience.

SpazzyMcGee Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 Wife told me while I was work, just awful. We're just a world away while people are fighting and dying and hiding and suffering. Perspective has really been on my heart lately. I think this is just the beginning unfortunately, hope I'm wrong though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Events like those in Paris are terrible tragedy but some organizations are celebrating. They want to destroy the values on which this land is build on. I hope they fail, but fear makes more and more people think irrational. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Family Friendly Rap God Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 I had to deactivate my Facebook today. The amount of ignorance combined with people bashing others for supporting Paris instead of "their cause" literally saddened me all day.

DarcX Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 The amount of ignorance combined with people bashing others for supporting Paris instead of "their cause" I almost hate to ask, but can you elaborate on this?

Family Friendly Rap God Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 I almost hate to ask, but can you elaborate on this? I don't even understand this premise. Just saw a lot of people getting mad at people for supporting France but not the students at Missouri, or gay rights, or being against police brutality. Also saw people getting called bandwagoners for supporting Paris. Deleted a lot of people today but just decided to go ghost on FB for awhile Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GalacticMelt Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 Apparently the NFL is beefing up security for Sunday's games in the wake of the tragedy. Makes me sick to my stomach to think of those folks who attended the concert just wanting to enjoy music coming face-to-face with the cowardly dirtbag terrorists. Seems no place is safe anymore; concerts, shopping malls, soccer stadiums, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarcX Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 I work at a shopping mall, and will likely be scheduled to work on Black Friday. :/ The thought has been lingering in the back of mind since all this and it creeps up sometimes.
