The Weekly 'Atrocity' Thread...

[Master Ray]

Well, here we are again...

77 people dead in Nice, 150 terribly injured, thanks to the latest religion-related massacre.  Seems to be a regular event.

So let's not post our opinions on the 'what pisses you off' or 'what makes you sad' threads or whatever... I've created this thread so we can all comment on whatever atrocity happened this week... and it does seem to be a weekly event.  Evil cnuts are now killing innocent folks on a regular basis, in the name of whatever God they believe in.  Anyone remember when a terrorist atrocity was a rare event?

Fuckin' religion.  I utterly loathe it, in whatever shape or form it comes in.

So, here's the new thread for comments about whatever sick vile Terrorist act just came onto the news and you were sickened by.  The way things are, these days, I suspect there'll be a lot of comments.   

But what the heck... here's my fave comedian, Jim Jefferies with a bit of good stuff about f-ing religion...

The attack on Nice was utterly horrific, sad to think that man kind can sink this low are these people really the same species as us . I'm not gonna blame all religions people, I feel that's wrong though I respect everyone's opinion, did we blame all Catholics or Irish when the ira were bombing, you might be right to argue that was political then again maybe this is too with a religious driving force. Hey just my opinion.
My heart really goes out to the people of Nice and France, sadly this won't be the last attack.
Please remember the vast majority 99.9% of Muslims are good people , lets back them n don't give the edl and Briton first any more ammo

[Master Ray]

Cheers, Pol.  To clarify, I wasn't attacking any religion in particular, just how the general concept is twisted by twisted people for CENTURIES.  I do appreciate that you can't taint everyone with the same brush if they worship the same diety, so I hope nobody thinks I'm hate-mongering thanks to a sickened, angry and from-the-heart unedited post.

What can I say?  Being an atheist seems like a very sane option these days.

[Pol]

Certainly didn't think anyone especially yourself or anyone else on this board would ever have that kinda of agenda
 Maybe I typed it badly, just wanted to make a point, I don't believe in god but my parents did and some of my family and friends still do , being from a catholic background in the west of Scotland meant/means that I know what religious intolerance feels like to a certain degree. I know its not quite the same.

Let us hope there isn't a weekly atrocity MR. But in the meantime (good link by the way very funny) have a look at this, the master of comedy on Religion:

Cheers, idopas.  I do sometimes post something possibly ill-conceived but from the heart in the heat of an upset moment.

RIP Mr Carlin.

Well, here we go again... nine dead in Munich in yet another 'Allahu Akbar' incident... children murdered in McDonalds...

Atrocity no doubt, but may I ask you to refrain from jumping to inflammatory conclusions before it's proven? This claim has been entirely unsubstantiated, if anything then - via a live recording - the attacker has proclaimed to be German and to be hating turks. Mosques in Munich have immediately offered shelter to stranded people. I'm not discounting any reason for this vile attack, but why echo the f**king tabloids once again, within hours of the event when no-one has a bloody clue about anything? We sadly live in shrill times of wild accusations, finger-pointing, extrapolations and primitive generalisations... there really is no need to carry this over to this board, surely? You weren't there, nor was I.

Greetings from Munich, which is probably the safest city on the planet right now.

Semm, I'm working with the information (and anger, and sadness) that I have in my head right now.  If I have jumped to the wrong conclusion thanks to media bullshit, then I will apologise as soon as I can.

But let's be honest... law of averages when it comes to terrorism and sickening murder these days?   

[cthulhu]

if you are looking for law of averages try antidepressants in combination with amok and murder.

[Pol]

What the **** is happening, seems you can't do anything without fear now.
Just want to scream out please make it stop. This has to be the most frightening thing of my lifetime by a long way, forget the cold war and the ira . Worst of all there doesn't seem to be a answer. Is it gonna be like this forever

I agree with your post. But the last sentence is an interesting one. so it got me thinking "is that right"? 

So I looked it up and you may be surprised to know that Munich is not the safest city, in fact it is not even in the top 10 of safest cities in Europe. See here:

I would imagine Munich is safe right now as Semme says due to the massive amount of Police currently on the streets.
