The morning after a truly tragic Friday the 13th, France wakes up to the following front pages, among which one which best captures the atmosphere in Paris at this moment: "war in Paris":

Here is the latest summary of the aftermath from last night's six distinct attacks across Paris, compiled from numerous media outlets:

At least 127 people are feared to have been killed according to French president Hollande in a series of devastating attacks across Paris.

Among the dead are at least two Belgians, two Romanians and a Swedish citizen, with UK prime minister David Cameron warning British casualties are likely.

Eight attackers also died, police say, seven of them by detonating explosive suicide belts.

Police continue to search for accomplices who might still be at large.

Two hundred people were injured, 80 of them seriously.

Shootings and explosions were reported in six locations across the city, including the Stade de France in northern Paris, where two suicide attacks and a bombing took place as the national team played Germany in a friendly football match.

The majority of victims died after a mass shooting inside the Bataclan concert venue.

Shootings also took place in restaurants and other sites in the centre of the city.

President François Hollande, who was at the Stade de France at the time of the assaults, said: "We are going to lead a war which will be pitiless. Because when terrorists are capable of committing such atrocities they must be certain that they are facing a determined France, a united France, a France that is together and does not let itself be moved, even if today we express infinite sorrow."

A state of emergency has been declared across France and security at the country’s borders has been tightened.

You give him your gun and he suicides with it instead of the bomb. Duh.

You all seemed to have missed the point.

Sure, given the exact situation in Paris where the terrorists shot a bunch of people, then set off a suicide bomb (assuming that the one’s doing the shooting were the one’s with the suicide vests), a gun would have helped.

Normally, they don’t do it that way. In cases where they don’t , a gun would not help.

What I was trying to point out is that letting the enemy set up camp in your house is where the problem starts, and where it should be eliminated.

People in Paris, and people here should not have to walk around worrying about someone blowing them up.

I thought about that... some would die but they’d have a better chance. Carson was right on this one - and you are too Sarge.

Thanks! I do realize that this mentality has to kick into gear almost immediately for many situations like this, but if one or two men charged the shooters, I think others would be motivated to do so as well.
