Most people would rather die than think, and most people do. -Bertrand Russell
Before the camps, I regarded the existence of nationality as something that shouldn’t be noticed - nationality did not really exist, only humanity. But in the camps one learns: if you belong to a successful nation you are protected and you survive. If you are part of universal humanity - too bad for you -Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
Oh fuck, again? I feel bad for Europe.
Really sad to hear this. I feared there might be a follow up attack after reading they had ended their state of emergency.
Not saying it isn't terrorism, but a guy plowing into a group of people in a truck? Seems to be a... different... tactic.
“Do not lose time on daily trivialities. Do not dwell on petty detail. For all of these things melt away and drift apart within the obscure traffic of time. Live well and live broadly. You are alive and living now. Now is the envy of all of the dead.” ~ Emily3, World of Tomorrow
Words to live by.
On the national day - and just as they were about to lift the state of emergency.
Added: With reports of gunfire as well. Not the news we wanted.

Does'nt sound nice.
Twitter saying 30 people have been killed after a truck drove into a crowd of people in Nice, France
Gunshots fired..
French media reports say local police are treating incident as attack http://trib.al/iuX9K3k
Let's hope it's not as bad as it sounds.
