I'm glad we will never have this problem in the Czech Republic. Even a blatant lie: Quite a lot of people, including myself, felt heartbroken at all those images of Islamic State destroying monument after monument after monument 'because wrong religion'.

Olympian1010 7,470 Posted April 16, 2019 #3674 Share Posted April 16, 2019 I write poetry from time to time, so on a sad day like this I choose to write one for the French people. (Sorry If you hate it, but I have gained many accolades for my poetry) (I apologize if I misused any French words, they’re all from google translate) (I also apologize if I offend anyone.): Brûler Our Lady, Notre Dame Stands burning. The protector becomes the afflicted. Fathers stop, Their sons are impatient. “It’s not everyday Our Lady burns.” It’s not everyday history is destroyed. Presidents, Emperors, Popes, Kings, and Queens All walked her halls. The Heart of France, Le Coeur de la France Burns, brûle A World, un monde Watches, regarde Sad, triste And devastated, et dévasté. All is lost, tout est perdu. Silence is broken, sadness is chained. Voices, voix de paris Cry out for Our Lady. Their tone is somber, their hearts heavy. But together, they cry out for Our Lady. Our Lady watched Paris for 800 years, We watched her for one evening. Beauty, sa beauté Changes to hideous horror. Hope will rise from her ashes. Les Parisiens will rebuild Our Lady. Her beauty will be restored. Her scars healed, But history’s will not. Today Our Lady burned, We sit in hushed sadness Tomorrow we rebuild, And create new history. (It takes a lot of courage on my part to post this here, so please be respectful if your critique it.) amen09, Bohemia, OlympicIRL and 1 other 1 3 “Sport has the power to change the world.

ahjfcshfghb 285 Posted April 16, 2019 #3677 Share Posted April 16, 2019 @heywoodu @Agger These are people in France who hate France. They want the culture to be destroyed, many were also wishing for more deaths. While I agree with the point about Syria the amount of rejoicing sickens me. We will never have this problem in the Czech Republic because we don’t have Islamic immigration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will never have this problem in the Czech Republic because we don’t have Islamic immigration. We would certainly have a handful of people celebrating here too, like you saw in France. A large majority would either be sad or quiet, like you saw in France.
