Well, for an update for what was said at my meeting last night...
The 'brother' who gave the announcements was reassuring everyone that Brooklyn Heights was ok, and was totally flippant about it all - (considering the scale of human tragedy) he described the tragic event as "the 'to do' [translation: small matter] that happened in America today". And the closing prayer ONLY mentioned the 'brothers and sisters' in NY - no one else was considered worthy of mentioning in the prayer. It was really sickening.
For what it's worth, everyone was encouraged to go out in FS on Saturday morning in view of events as, of course, everyone on the doors will want to talk about this - at this time no one even knew the full scale of the tragedy or who or what was behind it.
