Multiple Attacks Roil Paris; President Hollande Is Evacuated From Stadium
New York Times ^ | November 13, 2015 | ADAM NOSSITER and RICK GLADSTONE

PARIS - Shootings and explosions erupted in the Paris area on Friday night, and French news services said at least 39 people were dead, dozens wounded and others taken hostage in what appeared to be coordinated militant attacks.

French television reported that one of at least two explosions had struck near Paris at the country's main sports stadium, forcing the hasty evacuation of President François Hollande. The explosion occurred during a France-Germany soccer match.

The shooting broke out at a popular concert hall, The Bataclan, where a death metal band was playing, and the France 24 website said dozens of hostages had been taken there.

A witness quoted by BFM television said he heard rounds of automatic rifle fire and someone shouting "Allahu akbar!" at The Bataclan.

The police were ordering bystanders in the that area to get off the streets, French television reported.

Other news services and French television quoted the Paris police as saying 39 people had been killed in the 10th and 11th Arrondissements of Paris.

“Has the French government surrendered yet?”

Oh, I don’t think so. I’m pretty sure that they still have some working guillotines at the museums...

I wonder if we can send a crack team from the Missouri and Yale universities to demand a safe place to air their grievances and chase the hostage takers away?

France may not like America but we can in time forgive them.

Sometimes you just have to trust your gut instincts, we kinda owe them historically in some respects.

Trump can build a Normandy II and give it to France.

Hillary Clinton just tweeted her support and blamed a YouTube video as the cause of the attacks.

The media will bury this but he tried to instes the French logo of “Liberté, égalité, fraternité” by saying “Liberty, Equality and, er, ah, hum... the Pursuit of Happiness” (lol). What a moron!!! (and douche bag, etc.)
