Two police officials said at least 26 people have been killed in shootings and explosions around Paris Friday, in the deadliest violence in France in decades.

A police official said 11 people were killed in a Paris restaurant in the 10th arrondissement, and about 15 killed in the Bataclan theater, where a hostage-taking is under way.

Both officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to be publicly named according to police policy.

More like 60 dead according to some reports.

Some of the hostages just escaped or were released.

Why is it that, if a white man shoots black church goers, liberals will jump to conclusions that it was a racist attack?

And liberals jump to conclusions about lax gun regulations if there are shootings at schools or other public places.

But when Muslims are involved, liberals warn us not to jump to conclusions about who is involved or what their motivations may have been.

In Europe, their criminals are called “Youth”, kind of like our criminals are called “Teen” here.

And the politicians who brought this upon France are wringing their hands as to what to do, what to do.

In ancient Rome, at least they were smart enough not to INVITE the barbarians to come in.

The Jihadis are the evangelists of islam.

No need to blame them...they are only doing their religious duty.

Don't blame them...just kill them.

The relatively harmless muslims are like the Episcopals and Presbyterians (PCUSA), they just don't believe enough to kill you.

How much longer is the "civilized" world going to tolerate this kind of mindless slaughter?
