    In fairness it is the daily mail. they have the same sensationalist attitude as the OP

    The events in france are the top story in the news section. The story directly below it is this.

    Are comparing me to the Daily Mail?

    Well...it's possible. Where would you both be without clickbait headlines?

    Did you even read the link you posted? The part that says...
    A source said there was nothing at this stage to suggest what he called a terrorist attack.

    does the reuters link mention the word terrorist? No it does not. they are a responsible news agency not clickbait gutter journalism like the mail and the op.

    Maybe you could have put a few?????? after the headline or IMO something to calm the crowd.
    Seems your not allowed an opinion any more.
    I think its possibly a religiously motivated attack,I also think I could be totally wrong.

    OP don't mind all the people coming on here to deflect, if you look through their post history you'll find most of them in previous threads of which were terrorist attacks first denying, then downplaying, then making excuses for said attack. God forbid they discuss the incident instead of attacking a poster fro daring to post on their boards, an opinion that's different to them.

    Given the story so far it is possible it was, but possible it wasn't. The issue is you'll find a lot of news sites with the same attitude of a lot of posters here, do their best to deny, then downplay, and then excuse.

    Has his thread on boards given you fear? Then log off. Stop trying to deflect. A woman was tied up then stabbed to death. Whatever it is it's still horrible and quite possible terrorist related and all you want to do is censor posters. Go away.

    It could just be a robbery gone wrong. But how about we discuss what's happening then instead of crying about the thread title. At this stage it seems like it's over.

    only in the mind of the OP, you and a few others here. Not based on any actual evidence.

    So I'm confused. Are you saying it's impossible it's a terrorist attack or you cannot call anything a possible terrorist attack without evidence. Although of course evidence would mean it was definitely a terrorists attack.
