Both demoncrats and GOPe want to import them here. Give it six months and weirdos jumping the fence peeping in the WH windows will be the least of our worries.

At what point do we declare war on the death cult that has declared war on us?

When a federal judge says we can.

If it was a crime scene I doubt they would let those civilians wander around the ruins.

1964.

I was off by a year. I was 11.

You've got very good recall, to remember that from just four years old.

I owe my love of music to my Mom. She was NUTS for the current music of the day. Not that, ‘Hippy Sh#t,’ though; just ask her, LOL!

Anything sweet or sad or uplifting. Lots of Andy Williams, Glenn Campbell, Beatles, Beach Boys, Al Hirt, Dusty Springfield, The Supremes, The Drifters, Bobby Vinton and The Four Seasons.

I took her to see, ‘Jersey Boys’ a few years back and it was as if she had her, ‘Come To Jesus’ moment, LOL! If you’ve seen that play, you pretty much do NOT stop dancing and singing through the whole thing!

Bonus Track for Gerry & The Pacemakers: ‘Don’t Let The Sun Catch You Crying.’

I’ll bet that won’t apply to those that lost their friends, families, businesses and homes, tomorrow morning. :(

Tours is Southwest of Paris.

Good catch. What makes my error even greater is that the actual battle was between Tours and Poitiers. Thus, the French refer to it as the Battle of Poitiers. And Poitiers is even further to the south. However, it is rather deep into France.

Describing it as in Liverpool is pushing it a bit for an event in Port Sunlight across the river, in the posh part of what used to be Cheshire before it became Merseyside.

It's not on the Liverpool side of the river that is in the ferry songs...:^)

It was about 2 miles from Liverpool city center and I doubt if they really heard it there. It's also an unlikely place for a terrorist attack. now picking the refineries at Ellsemere Port three miles south might make sense.

England will not get serious until ISIS beheads the Queen on live TV or Nukes Oxford or Dover. Hundreds of Thousands must die before they stiff English go all Crusader on the Moon Cult of Death. They refuse to change. BUT the English will rise up and when they do—it will be terrible and bloodly. It may take 100 years but it will happen.

Jack Posobiec had some info below, the gas (?) explosion happened quite near some kind of Syrian refugee center, and from other tweets there's been 10 stabbing murders (random) in that area as well.

Blasts like this usually turn out to be gas related. Usually. In these times, I would not rule out Mohammedan gas.
