A wrestling pin down, or a pin down with fire arms?

French police operation underway on Paris’s Champs-Élysées

Paris police on Monday said they were dealing with an incident on the Champs Elysees in the city centre as a Reuters witness saw officers cordon off an area near the avenue and close to the presidential Elysee palace.

The announcement on a police Twitter account advised the public to avoid the area, and came after people took to social media to report that a car had caught fire in the area.

The filthy moslem Mayor of London says that medieval mass murder is now the price we have to pay to live in a "world city".

Tokyo's a world city.So is Seoul.And Warsaw too.

None of them have *ever* experienced a jihadi attack.

I wonder why.

Armed French police ...

A refreshing change from "unarmed English police."

There should be a Western Europe Summer Terror Game Card.

You get a little cardboard squared grid map of Western Europe (yes with the U.K. on it) and stickers with little star shaped explosions or tiny trucks or guns or knives. Every day you put the right sticker on the right square and when you get certain patterns, you win prizes.

There’s nothing else we can f’ing do.

According to French newspapers the man is severly injured. He was carrying a gun. The car exploded on impact - thus the injuries. No one else injured.

And no money for guessing the religion of the perp.

Sounds like a Monty Python skit:

"Hey, you there! Stop!"

again "Pardon me, I said 'Stop!'"

"Are you hard of hearing, sir? I've said "'Stop!', twice now!'

"Great heavens! In what sort of uncivilized world are we living, when an officer of the law yells 'Stop!', and the alleged perpetrator continues running."

"I blame the Russians."
