    "France’s national holiday turned bloody and violent Thursday night in the southern city of Nice, as a truck drove through crowds of Bastille Day revelers and gunmen attacked several tourist haunts throughout the city.
    The French Interior Ministry told reporters that at least 60 people were killed, and reports from Nice described a lengthy drive on pavements, not merely a crash into a building."

    This is just appalling, All this Senseless violence needs to end. I am seriously at loss for words for what happened.

    Were living in times where its literally unsafe to go anywhere. It makes me sad that our younger generation have to grow up in fear of these Anti-Religious terrorists attacking innocent lives at every corner. We seriously need to Stand up and fight back against this threat.

    What the hell is wrong with humanity. What are these people accomplishing by shooting innocent people, and on a holiday no less?

    There was an exchange student from southern France going to my school last year. I never got to be great friends with her, but I'm really worried now.

    It's awful that people are so delusional that they do things like this to "please their god" or whatever the hell they do it for. Do we know whether or not this was ISIS's doing yet though? I have a feeling it is, but I could be wrong.

    Right now this makes me really scared. To think that we live in world like this makes me sick. I hope that the people that died had spent their last moments with their families since it was during a holiday. What makes me even more scared is the fact that Donald Trump might win the election and he said, "Let Syria and Isis fight. . . Why do we care?". I think what is important to learn from this attack and the past ones too is that the world is really scary right now but we can make it better.

    That's crazy.
    Before I traveled, my mom and I were thinking of visiting Turkey.
    I was telling her that another attack there would be easier because it's more vulnerable there and she disagreed and said that it wouldn't because security would be stronger.
    Now look at France.

    Guys, I'll sound bloody awful and hopeless about this but, there's always gonna be hatred in the world, and attacks like this, they put more gas in the fire, even more so to hear that 10 children were victim of this heinous attack. Everybody, including myself wants this to stop immediately. Seriously, I'd love an Islamic State militant to see this question I'm about to ask them?

    What were those children's crimes? For supporting a religion different than yours? Were they going to fight your forces?

    No, they were being educated, and they were being brought up to live their life in the best way possible. Nobody should be mowed down by such f*cking evil b*stards like them.

    Thank you.

    I just don't see what ISIS has against us. They've been a threat for what, a year now? I don't know. Still, we did nothing to them and they just bomb tons of places? I seriously don't get it. I know that they're a terrorist group and all, but I don't know how someone of the right mind would continue to do this shit. It's just awful.

    The fact that Trump said "If I'm elected President, I will go to congress and declare war."

    Western countries have been contesting ISIS in the middle east for a long time already, sending aid, troops and airstrikes.

    A. Arguably, the goal of ISIS is in the name of the act they're commiting.
    Terrorism
    They're doing what they're doing to make the rest of us afraid and surrender.

    B. Because they're brainwashed into thinking that they're the superior people and want to rule the world.

    C. They want to please some kind of god and go to "heaven" by doing "God's work." I'll put it the way my dad put it:

    If somebody has a shitty life altogether and somebody came up to them and said they'd get everything they ever wanted if they blew a few people up, some people would take that chance.

    That's a few reasons I can think of.

    Note that I am in no way justifying the acts of terrorists. Everything ISIS does is wrong no matter the reason. I'm just listing a few possibilities why people do things like these. Obviously I don't support killing people.

    And I'm not calling all Muslims terrorists either, pls don't get mad.

    the terrorism needs to stop the reason why the terrorists are doing this is because they think god or allah will grant them to heaven well i got news for you its not gonna work if you kill yourself or kill others islam is supposed to be a peaceful religion have any of you guys read the Quran it does not allow violence against people who are Christian Jewish Muslim or anyone of any religion if you see a verse in the Quran that says (9:5) And when the forbidden months have passed, kill the idolaters wherever you find them and take them prisoners, and beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them at every place of ambush. But if they repent and observe Prayer and pay the Zakat, then leave their way free. Surely, Allah is Most Forgiving, Merciful. they were not talking about killing christians and jews they were talking about people who kill people for worshipping god. ISIS is not real islam they are just misinterpreting the Quran for their own beliefs not the beliefs of true Islam I want everyone to make sure that All muslims are not murderers and ISIS and its people are not real Muslims one of the ways to Stop ISIS is to shut down their funding we need to find where are they getting there funding and weapons from so we can stop them at the source I am not saying this to offend or annoy anybody but Muslims who kill arent real Muslims

    ugh, to be honest its disgusting as fuck how people are gonna kill other people for what reason at all. its honestly pointless and they're getting more and more attention in the news and media just because they're killing other people. of course its heartbreaking to hear. but i wish someone could put some sense in these dumb asses.
