[Scratch]

my girlfriend and her family were there just a week ago. this stuff is terrifying

 

[Gormless Noodle]

For the record, we were supposed to leave the state of emergency at the end of the month...

I wouldn't jump to any conclusions just yet. Let's see what happened/is going on exactly first.

Sky news live coverage

+1 I usually find Sky are better at breaking news than BBC.

oh jesus christ no ;_;

 

[Kilrogg]

What the fuck. Friend of mine was around the area just a few days ago. Thankfully she's since gone back to her country.

[Jawbreaker]

Fuck, this is horrifying. Seeing the images of all those mangled bodies ...

Thanks for the link Kilrogg, i miss to post it

 

[The Faceless Master]

oh man, that's awful

 

[BreezyLimbo]

Damn what the hell? Any word on who's responsible?

Or what happened?

did the truck just drive around crazily? Not alot of details..

 

[Boozeroony]

It looks like the truck is not the only thing going on...

 

[gdt]

Ahh fuck. That sounds horrific.

live coverage..french

looks like sky is simulcasting the BFMTV coverage

Sky just reported the 30 dead according to BFmtv

 

[G.O.O.]

30-50 dead according BMFTV

That *might* be exaggerated. BFM spouts bullshit when they don't know what to say.

I wouldn't jump to any conclusions just yet. Let's see what happened/is going on exactly first.

I always hope for that, but on that day I really doubt that's a mere coincidence

 

[Maxim726X]

So... Assuming this is ISIS: How far away are we from troops on the ground? The world will only put up with this for so long.

Awful tragedy. RIP to those senselessly slain.

 

[CrunchyB]

What the...? I think some of my friends are in Nice. Fuck this.

 

[Pacbois]

might be the driver

 

[HvySky]

It never fucking stops.

Kinda surprised we haven't gotten to that point already.

 

[Blackquill]

30-50 dead according BMFTV

They are not something to trust, especially when it's so soon

 

[MikeHattsu]

God damn. RIP to all the victims.

 

[Moskalova]

Selon @AlainMarschall sur place. Possible prise d'otage dans un des hôtels de la promenade des anglais #Nice #attentat #14juillet #direct

 

[SlimySnake]

30-50 sounds accurate based on the size of the truck and crowd density. Something needs to be done here if this is isis.

I understand no one wants war but enough is enough.

 

[Tatsumi Oga]

It just doesn't stop in this fucked up world, does it? If it's not bombings in Paris or at a Airport in Belgium or cops killing a human for no real reason...it's a maniac driving into a crowd of people.......what the hell man.

Indeed 'just' a maniac who did this or is it terrorism?

 

[warthog]

Terrible night for those victims/families of people who died. Pretty obvious it's an attack at this moment, judging by the reports, bullet holes in the truck and live coverage talking about it in that way.

 

[iPaul93]

Man,some people are just sick.

 

[Jawbreaker]

Selon @AlainMarschall sur place. Possible prise d'otage dans un des hôtels de la promenade des anglais #Nice #attentat #14juillet #direct

Possible hostage situation in a hotel?

 

[Boozeroony]

Kinda surprised we haven't gotten to that point already.

'Stop bombing the Middle-East' is a catchphrase I often hear.

 

[Me_Marcadet]

rumors of an hostage situation in a hotel/restaurant going on but nothing confirmed on this, gunshots heard

Some friend in the police told me so too, we don't know yet if it's true. Everyone is forced to stay inside. This is so crazy and unbelievable.

 

[Condom]

The Baghdad attack was insane with hundreds dead at once, if this is another ISIS attack then that is very worrying.

 

[Clydefrog]

Fucking hell. This is the world we live and die in. RIP to the victims.

 

[delSai]

Awful stuff. May the victims rest in peace.

Dillard is GOAT. Precious oracle of humanity. I treasure my copy of Pilgrim like nothing else.

 

[Rhaknar]

fox news twitter with the most unfortunate of hashtags

 

[Mr Swine]

Oh god, I really hope that the people in Nice are safe

 

[Sayter]

Or what happened?

did the truck just drive around crazily? Not alot of details..

CNN is saying occupants of truck exchanged gun fire with police.

 

[Kilrogg]

Trying to watch live news on the BFMTV player, but it sucks. Long ads and video looping.

 

[Sgt. Kabukiman]

Fuck, I'm in Cannes, 30 minutes away from there. My friends and I were thinking about going to Nice for the fireworks but we decided to stay in Cannes at the last minute.

What a fucking horrible time for this country, I'm about to lose my mind.

Western troops are as far away as ever. It honestly would only make things worse.

They solution needs to come from the gulf states/turkey.

 

[valkillmore]

How does this shit end?

 

[Moskalova]

Possible hostage situation in a hotel?

Yes, not confirmed but there are multiple people telling in twitter

This is an ideological war, not a geographical one. France and Belgium have huge problems with extremist sympathies within their own population.
