She said: &#8220;I organised the vigil to show my French friends that we stand united with them. I have\u00a0friends that are\u00a0in Paris\u00a0and fortunately they are all okay.&#8221;<br \/>\nCarlyne\u00a0lived in France for three years and\u00a0found it difficult\u00a0to watch the attacks\u00a0as\u00a0some of her\u00a0friends were in the area. She later learnt that one of her\u00a0friends was\u00a0stuck in a\u00a0cafe\u00a0near\u00a0the\u00a0shootings.<br \/>\nShe added: &#8220;I held the event because I wanted to show my French friends that we stand united with them,\u00a0regardless of religion, nationality, age and race. It went well and the French people I spoke to were delighted and touched that they had so much support at what is a dreadful time for the entire world.<br \/>\nSabine Ollivier\u00a0was one of the many French people at the vigil. She said: &#8220;Lots of us here are from France and have lots of friends and family in Paris.<br \/>\n&#8220;When I found out about the news I felt horrible, I was in tears.\u00a0Hopefully, there will be peace but this is a war.&#8221;<a href=\"http:\/\/cardiffian.jomec.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/IMGP12091.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-7734 alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/cardiffian.jomec.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/IMGP12091.jpg\" alt=\"IMGP1209\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-7734 alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/cardiffian.jomec.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/IMGP12091.jpg\" alt=\"IMGP1209\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" \/><\/noscript><\/a><br \/>\nJoao Filipe Ruivo Felix also went to the vigil. He said: &#8220;I am here to show solidarity for the people that died and those that suffered. I think change will come from solidarity and not polarising politics.<br \/>\nHe also\u00a0expressed concerns that\u00a0politicians will use the attacks\u00a0for &#8220;political advantage&#8221;.<br \/>\n&#8220;In Britain it will be used by the government to pass laws &#8211; like the Snoopers Charter &#8211; which trade liberty for security. There will also be political gain for anti-immigration politicians,&#8221; he added.<br \/>\nRory Wade was also at the vigil and said: &#8220;I felt a moral duty to be here and show solidarity towards the people of Paris.<br \/>\n&#8220;I think David Cameron will further his counter-terrorism policies and consider having boots on the ground in Iraq and Syria. I think when that happened in Iraq it made things worse.<br \/>\n&#8220;With each attack, Islamophobia increases and if I was a Muslim today I would feel a lot more conscious walking down the street.<br \/>\n&#8220;I would say to those Muslims, don&#8217;t think that the media or some of the loudmouths on social media reflect all of the people in Britain. If you look, you will find people who are in solidarity with you.&#8221;<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/cardiffian.jomec.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/IMGP1189.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-7724 alignright\" src=\"http:\/\/cardiffian.jomec.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/IMGP1189.jpg\" alt=\"IMGP1189\" width=\"368\" height=\"276\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-7724 alignright\" src=\"http:\/\/cardiffian.jomec.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/IMGP1189.jpg\" alt=\"IMGP1189\" width=\"368\" height=\"276\" \/><\/noscript><\/a>The secretary of Cardiff Stop the War Coalition, Adam Johannes, said that while the vigils\u00a0had been marked by\u00a0&#8220;a strong desire for unity and peace&#8221;, the government would\u00a0use the attacks\u00a0to justify bombing in\u00a0Syria.<br \/>\nHe added: &#8220;There will be more war, more crackdowns, more Islamophobia and more treating the entire Muslim population as a suspect community.<br \/>\n&#8220;As if fourteen years of the never-ending, ever expanding &#8216;war on terror&#8217; was not what led us to this.<br \/>\n&#8220;Our thoughts are with the victims and the families.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CARDIFF concert venues have reviewed security arrangements following the terrorist\u00a0attacks in Paris.
