Me too, but I can't say I'm really surprised. It's happening more and more often. That's why we should not take in any more refugees, as cruel as it sounds. They just cause us more problems.

Maybe Donald Trump is right. One of his platforms is that he would slam the door to any more Muslims coming to the United States.
I never thought I'd agree with Trump on anything, but incidents like this make his ideas sound more and more sensible. And now I'm sure others will be feeling the same way, particularly voters in the U.S.

My dad is in Bruxelles in a cultural tour with his students
He wrote me on what's up they are ironclad in hotel, their plan was to visit the three headquarters of the European Parliament, Strasbourg, Luxembourg and Brussels, but I seriously doubt that they can
They are now waiting for orders, they'ld return on Thursday,if the aeroport'll be open

Yes it's good you're dad's okay but what gets me is everyone's saying 'STAND TOGETHER' the world leaders I mean and we must 'FIGHT THIS THREAT AS ONE' and yet even with their best attempts Isis is still out there and managed to get inside a heavily secured airport and underground train station with lots of Police since the Paris bomb attacks and blew people up there.

As I said, Trump is beginning to look better and better. Sad, but true.

Well I know in London today security was tightened up there like when my mum and I went Westfield shopping centre in Stratford earlier 'cause I wasn't working and there were security guards and police posted throughout there.

The new Islamist terrorism has its head in Iraq and Syria, it's building another in Libya, it has a small army ready for anything in France and Belgium
To throw down the Twin Towers in New York, Bin Laden had to infiltrate a command in the US
In Europe there is no need, the Isis swims in the pond of Middle Eastern and North African communities who are radicalized, close the borders is useless
The US invented the FBI when the sheriffs were no more able to chase criminals long-states, we need the same thing, a European federal police, with supranational powers and investigative standard methods, and also common laws,eg wiretapping
I'm not going to change my lifestyle of these guys
At Easter Ill go with friends to Rome to enjoy the beauty of the city and the flourishing hillsides,and the medieval Castles and to drink iced Frascati
Bottoms up!

Apparently the 3 guys associated with the attacks were known to police and linked to the Paris bombings which baffles me how they were able to evade them whilst on the run 10 days beforehand and live 2 miles elsewhere storing their weapons which they used yesterday.

Rather than skilful they are protected and helped by a network of sympathizers and people who'ld never betray them: fish in the water
It's the fourth time I go to Rome and still I haven't seen all what there is to see
Happy Easter to all the Cafè
