Mass killing in Kabul

At least 80 people dead and 250 wounded. Wow, this is just horrible. When is terrorism ever going to end?

  • I'm gonna make a thread dedicated to the newest terrorist attacks.

  • That's horrible. I just hope things get better for people soon. It really sucks that we're getting attacks every week now, at different points across the globe.

    Truly an atrocity. Can't wait to see this go underreported by the media.

    EDIT: Just checked MSN. It would seem old photos of Tim Kaine and the story of white people participating in BLM are more important.

  • Yeah here too. Talking a second time about Pokemon Go was more important I guess.

  • Is this related to ISIS?

    My money would be on a Taliban faction, facilitated by ISIS. Either way, it would hardly be a difficult task to obtain some automatic weapons.

    EDIT: Looks like ISIS claimed it.

  • So he was a muslim??? What the hell I could have never seen that coming.

  • Yep, another good reason to be a Trump-ist.

    P.S. I'm not trying to piss off Clinton-ists.

  • Those are not real words. If they are then I'm a who gives a shit-ist.

    Can we stop with passive agressive comments like these, please? They don't add much of value to discussion, and we want comments made in news thread to aim for a higher standard than normal threads.

    Trump supporter or hellary supporter is the actual pronounce.

  • When is this going to end? That's literally all I have to say.I'm tired of this crap, terrorism. School shootings, mass killings, plane hijackings. It's literally becoming the ABC's of this generation.

  • Yeah. You kind of start ignoring these things due the flood.

  • I am really not having high hopes for 2016, seeing how shitty it is already.

  • Hey, can we please stop pointing out someone's religion or race when it comes to these things. People were killed and wounded. Religion and race shouldn't matter. These people were evil beings killing their people who practice the same religion. All I'm asking is to be civil and respectful in this thread. If you guys do not follow, I will ask the moderates to close it.

    (For the most part, I am AFK until July 31st, but I will be checking in periodically. I just wanted to comment on this post).

    if religion and race is relevant to the atrocity (as it so often is these days) people should talk about it.

    As Dillion said, we don't want people to be afraid to discuss facts or genuine speculation (with the intent of constructive and non-bigoted discussion). Rather, we just ask that people of both sides stay civil and respectful in doing so. We don't want people posting bigoted or passive aggressive comments (see the Community Guide to Decency), but civil discussion is fair game for the most part as we want to encourage open discussion for both sides that is civil. I personally (as in, I am not speaking for the mod team and or Telltale) am not a fan of forums that ban people just by virtue of trying to have critical discussion, but even so, some of the posts in various news threads lately have just been straight up trashy.

    If you post an argument with good reasoning and articulation that does not resort to generalizations, bigotry, logical fallacies, etc, than we are by far more likely going to keep those comments up. However, if you make snarky, drive-by shitposts posts such as "OH EM GEE IT WAS A {insert person of X religion here}!?! I'M SO SURPRISED.... NOT!!!! ECKS DEE xDD LEL!!!shift+1!!", then we are going to start flagging those comments and/or banning people for not offering genuine and constructive discussion. Please discuss your opinions logically, respectfully, and civilly. If you are not up to that, then don't bother posting at all.

    Consider it an unwritten forum rule that News threads are asked to have a higher standard of posting that normal threads. Don't make posts with snarky jokes that make offensive generalizations and stereotypes about different races/religions/genders/etc and not attempt to follow it up with a sound argument presented in an attempt at genuine, civil, and constructive discussion.

  • It's alright, just try to cut down on it please. To clarify, my post below was directed towards another thread I had locked yesterday and that was not directed at your comment in this thread in particular.

  • I understand what you're saying. The reason I said this is because everytime I see a thread similar to this one, there are always some people that type in sarcastic tones and seem to offend people who practice the Islamic religion.

  • People keep asking when is this going to end. I'll tell you: Never. It will never end because the people in charge fail to realize that their is a terrorist problem and will do nothing about it. They will just continue to spout platitudes over and over.

  • Yeah, that's what I meant.

    I just wanted to save some space.

  • Guys the "attacks that keep on coming" HAVE been coming, for years now. The news networks only choose to report on some of them, unfortunately. Some countries not shown in the news headlines practice precautions for shootings on a daily basis; needful I must clarify this attack doesn't bring a smile to my face.

  • War over there takes toll of both sides.

    There's thread over at Wikipedia that shows how massive it's.
