Riot in Smichov - check the news

[x_maker]

Apparently early this morning - well, early morning here - something happened in Smichov in the Czech Republic, where they've built that wall around the mutant ghetto. They were letting some people pass through the barricades and there was "an incident", and somehow the military started opening fire. Newsfeeds are getting scattered reports of citizens versus soldiers in and out of the ghetto - have we heard ANYTHING from the Elpis folks that were heading out there? I've been watching what video's getting out of there, there hasn't been anything new in the past hour.

This is absolutely horrifying and why isn't the jet taking off yet?

Julio, this is happening in a neighborhood that has been completely enclosed by a wall. That wall, up until this morning, was being guarded by a substantial portion of the army of the Czech Republic, which is not some pissant Third-World military that a stealth jet and some clever manuevering could get around.

I do not see any way that any mutants, X-Men or not, uniforms or not, could have gotten in there without declaring war on the Czech Republic. How do you think that would have helped the situation, when they did this because they were afraid of mutants?

So we watch them kill innocent people for the sake of a fucking political statement. Brilliant.
