**Out Of Loop Article: Usually I don't post often about terrible tragedies, but this one brings a heavy heart to write about which occurred on this past Friday November 13, 2015.**
On Friday November 13, 2015 , was any ordinary day where many french folks were enjoying the start of the weekend. A time where they went out to visit a cafe place to have a drink with a friend, listening to a rock concert , or even a special landmark just to relax after a long work week.
All of that is about to change in a instant! Terrorism is what was caused of terror, fear, and death of innocent victims who got shot at random at these different locations simultaneously on that day.
Dozens of injured and over 129 have died from this incident. Including an American girl student who was studying on design while in France, and a young London man who worked as a lawyer. Victims of some of the people are listed here.
My heart goes out to the families who lost their loved ones during this terrible day. My sympathy goes out to the people who had to witness people dying in front of them and around them. My heartaches for them during this difficult time and the people of Paris.

::9/11/2001::
When terrorism attacked the United States, the French responded as well in our time of need.
On 9/11 French said "Today we are Americans" , Now today, we say "Today we are all French."
