Darkpriest Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 (edited) I hope all of your friends and family is safe... really disgusting stuff. Currently at least 13 confirmed dead and many more wounded. Reports are that they have one of the terrorists locked on, but he got hostages in a restaurant Edited August 17, 2017 by Darkpriest 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Labadal Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 The worst thing is that there's basically nothing that can be done to stop stuff like this happening, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raithe Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 I don't think anyone knows for certain. A van zigzags and plows through pedestrians, then the driver escapes on foot. There are some mixed reports that a man originally from North Africa has been arrested. Quote "Cuius testiculos habeas, habeas cardia et cerebellum."

Ben No.3 Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 (edited) Of course there are such reports. I'll wait for police confirmation UPDATE: Police says they have arrested one, don't say who; also reports that someone is hiding in a bar are false.

Ben No.3 Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 This new attack may be a problem, since we have elections in a few weeks. I hope it doesn't shift public opinion drastically. On a side note: if the terrorists are smart they plan attacks according to elections. That'll heighten the chance to strengthen nationalists and thereby severely destabilise Europe.

smjjames Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 (edited) I guess it's a Muslim? Since Trump tweeted immediately. Now he needs to condemn the one in Charlottesville. As for who the suspects are, yeah, they say they have one in custody and another is on the run, possibly hiding in a bar or something, but identity hasn't been released yet. edit: Actually, police have released a photo of the suspect, who was born in morocco: http://www.bbc.com/news/live/40966524 Still too early to assume much though.

KP the meanie zucchini Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 I think we can agree both sides are at fault here. 7 Quote "I am the expert, asshat." - Hurlsnot "You need to be careful, lest I write another ten page essay on mythology and how it relates to Sailor Moon." - majestic "I won't say what just in case KaineParker is reading" - Bartimaeus "Oh no!

smjjames Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 I think we can agree both sides are at fault here. Depending on which 'sides' you mean, heh. Also, BBC live says that one suspect has been killed in a shootout. Again, very little information atm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
