The topic is Paris attacks.
Some people want to hope and pray this problem away.
But yet when a war is waged against the people who do this the very same people don't really mind.

Happy to hear you and two of your friends are OK. Sending good vibes your way, and hoping your third friend found their way home.Tristelune said:Couldn't attend the show as we were supposed to, had three close friends in the concert hall, two are alive and well, can't get news from the third.

Yeah, I fed the troll, that was my bad. Sometimes I can't stop myself. I am tired of the baiting and mocking that constantly comes from pjfan. This thread deserves more respect than she is capable of posting with, maybe I will be the next poster contributing thoughts and opinions who gets banned for calling bullshit when it's being smeared on the walls of a civil discussion.Thirty Bills Unpaid said:

(by the way, how feeling sadness and sending well-wishes to those close to such horror would be met with condescension is beyond me)0 -

I'm afraid that in France they will have to really clamp down on their citizens with Muslim background cause now that they have confirmation that one of the perpetrators was a French citizen , how the hell do they prevent anymore suicide missions .....jesus greets me looks just like me ....0

Please, Pearl Jam, consider a Benaroya Hall vinyl reissue! http://community.pearljam.com/discussion/148993/please-pearl-jam-consider-a-vinyl-benaroya-hall-re-issue0 -
There was a huge thread about the refugees. Got so heated it got closed last month. Another one was made, but people realized they couldn't discuss it civilly so the second thread died.bootlegger10 said:
It is okay if you don't want to have discussion. You don't need to come to the message board. This is the largest mass migration of people since WW2 and there is not a word of it on this message board and it is ludicrous to think that there won't be any negative consequences. The solution to the Middle East problem is not mass migration to Europe.
This Paris attack isn't the first terrorist attack in Europe, but one of many. It isn't like we need the facts right now about this Paris attack to confirm whether there are Islamic terrorists in Europe. This attack could have been staged by the Girl Scouts but that doesn't mean there isn't an issue in Europe with Islamic extremism and large, large disenfranchisement of Muslim youth (I.e., French and Swedish riots in previous years). If you can't see that Europe is changing significantly then I don't know what to tell you. If you also can't recognize that there are millions of Europeans that don't agree with the immigration of refugees and if you cannot empathise with their position then YOU should be ashamed.
You think that German town of 100 that took in 750 refugees will ever be the same? Do you care about those 100 people at all?
Seems to me like at least some of these terrorists were home grown in Europe and eother way there is nothing siggesting any have something to do with refugees.
Closing our hearts to people in need, to people who are running from the same people we are condemning today, will NOT stop attacks like these, but will make us worse people.
I am DISGUSTED that so many people are using this as a reason to turn their backs on desperate, innocent people who are victims right along with the people who were attacked in Paris yesterday.Post edited by PJ_Soul onWith all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world.
