Taxi drivers turning off meters, taking people home for free.
Heh. Paris cab drivers have switched off their meters, taking people home for free.
From what I’ve heard of Parisien cabbies, that’s pretty remarkable.
Le Figaro reporting that the police have assaulted the Bataclan music hall.
Hah, yeah, I’ve heard the same thing.

Sigh, I can’t wait to see what kinds of threads certain folks around here will start in the wake of this. :(
AFP confirms that police have stormed the Bataclan.
How about the Republican candidates?
Can you imagine what they’ll start spewing?
Please keep stuff that in the other thread over at P&R.

“A ladder has been placed on the Bataclan’s facade. People are coming down the ladder, looking like an evacuation.”
Police operation at the Bataclan is over. Two attackers dead. No word on casualties.
One official described “carnage” inside the Bataclan, saying the attackers had tossed explosives at the hostages. Both officials said they expected the toll of victims to rise.
Oh Lord, reports of over 100.
Unconfirmed reports are coming in that refugee camps in France are being torched in “retaliation.” Fuck I hope that’s not true.
