It's gotta be serious if they're drawing and aiming weapons down into an area where there may be civilians According to LeMonde the line 6 of the subway has been locked down around the Trocadero station. And after yesterday, I assume a lot of people in Paris are just staying inside? I mean, this seems like when they were hunting the bombers in the Boston area, where we just shut down the city.
No we're not. I know some people try to avoid public transports but that's pretty much all. Also sales just started but shops are not as busy as usual.

The Trocadero subway thing confirmed as a false alert by the Ministry of the Interior. The subway traffic gets back to normal.

Subway has been evacuated apparently. To be confirmed of course. Not confirmed and apparently not true A lot of people are going to get paranoid and some retarded genius are going to use it for some joke, we should not jump into conclusion that quickly
That's why I used the conditional. But there's also policeman with their guns pointed at subway's exit so that could be possible.
Or just a prank. Which would be seriously fucked up....

Basically the government can decide to shut down some shops, public places, institute a curfew, etc ; the military can cover some tasks traditionally covered by the police ; it also enables the government to have a partial control over what the newspapers and medias publish. Also gives extra power to the police.

Doesn't surprise me one bit. As soon as they heard its a Jewish/Kosher store, it was bound to happen.

Ah, Le Monde just confirmed this was a false alert at the Trocadero.
The Subway line tweeted that the incident has ended and that traffic was going back to normal.

The terrorists took one thing away from Mumbai - bombs are over as soon as, and if they go off. Gunmen can keep a city disrupted for days.

Yes.
But yesterday morning there was a second attack in the south of Paris. Some guy just showed up in a car accident and shot a policewoman to death. Another guy was wounded.
The police lost track of the shooter but managed to identify him as connected to the Kouachi brothers. They think he's he guy who just took hostages in the east of Paris.

The media are really making this whole thing worse than it is.

No it's not a martial law. It just give more liberty to the police. As like.. the "chiefs of police" can decide stuff by themselves in their own region. Maybe someone can explain it better.

Yeah, it's likely more like our "state of emergency," which allows local police and government officials more discretion in allocating resources and decision-making.

yes it's more like that. This thing can last two weeks and permit to police force to search houses without "warrant" (well it's not like US warrant but kind of) and permits curfew if needed or press control.

Yep. Basically, Police commissioner are given extra powers, like ordering curfews, the minister of the interior can assign to residency specific people without court order, things like that.
But it's extra power granted to _civil_ forces, not to the military.

What Ragnarok said. I'm really bad at english this last few days.

About "État d'urgence":
"En France, l'état d'urgence « confère aux autorités civiles, dans l'aire géographique à laquelle il s'applique, des pouvoirs de police exceptionnels portant sur la réglementation de la circulation et du séjour des personnes, sur la fermeture des lieux ouverts au public et sur la réquisition des armes »1.
Translation:
"In France, the state of emergency grants civil authorities extraordinary jurisdiction over traffic and movement regulations, the shutting down of buildings open to the public and the requisition of weapons in the relevant geographic location."
