This is gonna be a fun ride:

Gunmen have opened fire in several places in the French capital, Paris, causing several casualties, French media report.

At least one man opened fire with an automatic gun at the Cambodge restaurant in the 11th district.

Liberation newspaper reports four deaths. It also reports shootings near the Bataclan arts centre.

An explosion is also reported to have targeted a bar near Stade de France, where France were hosting Germany.

Reports say President Francois Hollande was watching the match and has been evacuated.

A BBC journalist at the Cambodge restaurant says he can see 10 people on the road either dead or seriously injured.

He says police have now arrived.

Shooting is said to be continuing.

Holy poo poo dude. Wonder if this has to do with Germany and their immigration stuff lately.

E: well I'm assuming it does but only one those incidents directly mentions Germany so who knows this early.

I'm thinking more along the lines of this being done by some of the people who're really pissed about the stuff in that Germany Closes Borders thread.

I don't think jihadists are particularly concerned about the well-being of refugees or care for their getting into the west.

These numbers are always initially really high and then they drop.

It's probably less likely to be left-wing domestic terrorists but it isn't impossible. The poster probably drew the connection because of the attempt on the stadium hosting Germany.

Eh true. I was kinda thinking it could be some of the refugees themselves but not many refugees leave packing weapons and poo poo to their destination in case some nation tells them to gently caress off so yeah I'm way off.

It's probably terrorists who trickled in with the swarms of immigrants. Now they've had time to set up shop and blow poo poo up and shoot people.
