In Wake of Tonight's Terrorist Attacks, Second Life's Paris Now Being Deluged by Supporters & Mourners

"As an American I will stand with you French."

"I don't know French but my love to your country is all I can give from where I am."

"These terrorists have failed anyway, this will only make France stronger." 

These are some of the words currently being spoken in Second Life's virtual recreation of Paris, which is already filled to capacity by supporters and mourners in the wake of today's all too real terrorist attacks on the City of Lights. The sim is so crowded, I wasn't even able to get a decent photo of the scene, so I'm using this file photo above -- taken, ironically enough, when mourners gathered in SL Paris in the wake of January's Charlie Hebdo massacre. If you are able, I hope you are able to visit and offer your best wishes to the French now gathered there: Click here to visit virtual Paris.

I’m profoundly chocked by what happened in my country yesterday. Religions tend to raise the human spirit, protect life, empower the weak. We all must fight the stupid cowards who consider religions as weapons. May God bless the bereaved families.
