Belgium Nice, France was hit with a massive terrorist attacks today, similar in nature to those that rocked Paris last year and Belgium. While it is perhaps Western-Centric to acknowledge these attacks in a special way and not simultaneously note the daily attacks throughout the Middle East … whatever. You can be right in the big picture – today is still awful.
Here’s the formal statement: fuck those people.
No, that isn’t original or witty or even useful. And there probably won’t be a “je suis Belgium Nice” movement (because this is now too common, even in France.) There should be. Instead, I can just literally cut and paste old stories because that’s the world we live in because some group of people are rabid dogs, just with less sense.
Maybe another writer here will have more to say. For now, I reiterate: fuck you.
We now resume our regular programming of good, bad, and stupid.
