ISIS Bombing Attack in Brussels

#1

Post by Skiprr »

At least 31 killed and 187 injured as of 11:15 Central in airport and metro stations. ISIS claims credit, and the feeling is that these were attacks already in planning, but sped up following the arrest of Salah Abdeslam--the Paris attacks mastermind--last Friday.

CNN "breaking news" reporting the following:

10 killed, 100 injured at the airport
20 killed, 130 injured at the station


I've also heard reports of increased security presence (and increased rights violations, particularly violations of the Fourth Amendment) at multiple places in the US.

TexDotCom,

You heard: "I've also heard reports of increased security presence (and increased rights violations, particularly violations of the Fourth Amendment) at multiple places in the US."

What specifics can you provide other than 'you heard'...?

Non-sequiter not intended. And the examples that CNN reported earlier are now missing from their updated articles. Feel free to ignore my previous comment.

I would guess that by "I heard", he means media or social media which unless we are there or are informed by someone who is there, is pretty much how we all "hear" about things like this.

They could of reported that there were 13 gunman and that is what we would "hear". If you believe everything the media says, you'd believe it..

"He" believes very little of what "he" hears and reads, actually. Apologies for wasting your time and getting your heart-rates up over a quickly typed and poorly substantiated response.

Even with TSA pre-check, I was pulled out of line this morning at Love Field, :eek6 along with others, for "additional screening".

Yep, more platitudes and false outrage,while the liberal elites double down on their failed policies that have clearly led to this latest atrocity.

Checked and all my friends in Belgium are okay. They are near Brussels and many of them travel frequently.
