Shots have been fired. Police heavily armed, going from room to room, guests told to stay in their rooms.

Fox News cameraman staying there, other guests tweeting from there.

Someone tweeted that the search is over but I’m not sure.

French police say there is an ongoing police intervention at the Pullman hotel in Paris. But they have denied reports on social media that shots were fired.

And now multiple tweets say false alert at the Pullman.

I can imagine everyone is a bit twitchy over there.

For a gun-free city, seems there are a lot of guns. Kinda reminds me of Chicago.

TelegraphUK has running updates:
21:02 Metro shut The Champs de Mars metro station has been shut. It is not clear if this is linked to the ongoing police operation at the Pullman hotel.

Yes, false alarm — but police responded in full force, emergency vehicles came. One photo of the bar downstairs with glasses broken all over the floor from the people rushing to escape. Things are different today. Very sad just to see that yes, TERROR is working.

I’m not sure what to think.

This is not the time for some computer nerd to go ‘Swatting’ one of their enemies. Swatting = Sending police over to a strangers home based on a fake emergency, or Phoning in a fake order of say, 200 pepperoni pizzas deep dish, to be delivered to your next door neighbor. Done just for a giggle.
Too soon fellows, too soon.

Right, so can we racially profile yet or do we still frisk and strip search 80-year-old white women?

What’s really scaring me .. there are people (I guess I shouldn’t name names), who could be watching all the police power being implemented .. and realize that after some sort of attack .. that sort of police power; shutting down the cities; closing the border; declaring an emergency (or martial law), seems to have some appeal .. that is if you lust for taking over control of a country ..??

Now .. just what are all these Syrian MEN doing in New Orleans ..??

Just sayin’.

>>Now .. just what are all these Syrian MEN doing in New Orleans ..??

We saw it after the Boston Bombing. That was just for two guys. Now, take 8000 military-age men, disperse them across 180 population centers, then send up a signal that say that it’s Go-time for some “SJS” and watch martial law take over. Then, some pissed-off Americans decide that they aren’t going to take that crap (Boston was a safe venue for the trial run) and then the cops start shooting Americans for just refusing the lick the boot.

Here’s a good quote from Kissinger that might give us an answer to your question.

“Today, America would be outraged if U.N. troops entered Los Angeles to restore order. Tomorrow they will be grateful! This is especially true if they were told that there were an outside threat from beyond, whether real or promulgated, that threatened our very existence. It is then that all peoples of the world will plead to deliver them from this evil. The one thing every man fears is the unknown. When presented with this scenario, individual rights will be willingly relinquished for the guarantee of their well-being granted to them by the World Government.”
- Dr. Henry Kissinger, Bilderberger Conference 1992
