    Aye because saying you hate religion is the same as killing 140 people.

    Twitter is an absolutely incredible Tool in times like these. Having a real time feed from any place in the World through eyewitnesses is unbelievable.

    It's only a load of *, like Facebook, if people aren't smart enough to be aware of the validity of the source.

    Exactly.

    The Twitter response, by and large, has been fantastic tonight. People in Paris were tweeting to offer shelter to those in need.

    so if the Islamic terrorists stop these sort of attacks, then we'll stop.
    that'll work.

    All I would like to add is that I hope people don't accept everything they are told about this by Sky News and the likes without questioning it.

    i.e who the attackers were, where they were from and why they did it.

    No but we do live in a world where religious groups past and present have killed innocent people, if there were no religion these people would not have been indoctrinated and brainwashed into thinking this is ok.

    118 killed in the theatre, another 40 in other areas.

    Horrible.

    Nobody said it was. But it doesn't make your hate of people having religious beliefs justified

    Religion or no religion, certain groups of people would find reasons to justify their actions similar to this.

    I don't hate the people who have religious beliefs I just hate the religions itself. I grew up a Catholic, my whole family are heavily religious ffs I don't hate them. He said we weren't that different than terrorists who killed 140+ people because we had an opinion.

    I think whilst the number continues to climb and people are shocked at what has happened we have to bear in mind a bomb went off in an 80000 capacity football stadium and it looks like there has been minimal damage because of it.

    That in itself is a minor victory for the innocent Parisians being targeted.

    Huh? Let me repeat, this is not normal behaviour for human beings. You stop feeding the evil and it will fall away; you try to fight evil with evil (which is what both sides have been doing) and you are throwing petrol on a fire.

    Truth is terrorists and security apparatuses are two sides of the same coin: you feed one and you feed the other.

    So that's the first thing we do. We stop making it worse.

    Then, as I say, we get very serious about justice for the people in certain parts of the world like the Middle East. Remove the fuel and you remove the fire.
