    Coordinated Attacks in Paris, France

    Once again, it appears that Paris is under siege by groups of individuals. Sky News is reporting at least three different attacks, including gunfire, explosions, and hostage taking across the city.

    The French President was at a football match between the French and German national teams when explosions occurred in the stadium. He is said to have been evacuated safely to the Interior Ministry offices.

    From what I can see on Sky News, the French police are responding in force and not waiting to see what will happen next.

    It looks like a Mumbai-style attack in Paris

    French press is reporting at least 30 dead. There is mention of suicide bombers detonating vests and also several simultaneous shootings. MERDE

    Another sign of things to come.

    Poking the bear is a short term win. Even a French bear.
    I'd be surprised if the French react in the limited way they did after Charlie Hebdo.

    This. 60 dead just confirmed on CNN.

    My thoughts are with the civilians, and with the French LEOs and .mil responding to this incident.

    Good hunting.

    Looks like another protest about a video getting out of control.
    Just a Hairy Special Snowflake supply clerk with no field experience, shooting an Asymetric carbine as a Try Hard. Snarky and easily butt hurt. Favorite animal is the Cape Buffalo....likely indicative of a personality disorder.

    I think the terrorists have decided to take a page from Hollywood and are trying very audacious coordinated attacks. My fear is that they are drawing the first responders into a series of ambushes.
