Thats a story not being taught in Americas government schools. Find a good source and email the story to your list. There was a very good post about it here on FR not too long back. I went to Catholic parochial school in the 50s and 60s. We learned about the Holy Crusades by some big nasty nuns that could took no S*** from us kids and told us about how Islam tried to take over Christian lands and how we did not bend over and take it like is being done today...

From what I could tell in France, there's several visible levels of law enforcement. At the train stations, the police were Federal police -- the 'Gendarme Nationale' -- which is sort of like a combo of DHS and FBI here in the USA. This is where France's elite counter-terror unit 'GIGN' comes from. They're like France's version of the UK's SAS.
In Paris, there's city Metro cops, some of whom get to drive special lightning-fast little Peugot patrol cruisers. They will weave in and out of traffic going the wrong way and driving on the sidewalks if they want. I also saw big Yamaha 1300s motorcyles being used by the police more often that I saw patrol cruisers.
There's also the French Army patrolling around in the big tourist areas, and in the most sensitive places where hundreds of citizens might be a target for a terrorist attack, they use the Foreign Legion paratroopers. They roam around in squads of six or eight, with multiple squads in view.
And sometimes, the French Army stages military exercises in Paris. They just send in whole divisions for maneuvers.

They're carrying mags, just not inserted. The senior rank in the squad seems to be readied with a mag. I don't understand the wisdom of that either, unless it's to reduce accidental discharges I expect.
In the UK, mags are inserted. No round in chamber, they say.

I think you're damn right and it's just a matter of time before it shows up on 'BREAKING NEWS' and makes all our hearts sink.

Didnt this happen at a recruiter in the US already?
I think it was in Alabama or Georgia. Recruiters should be armed or carry concealed.

I anticipate this will be happening right her in America before long.In New York or California most likely, where the odds of a CCW holder taking them out will be nil. San Diego immediately comes to mind as a target rich environment.

I know what Ike, FDR, Truman or Reagan wouldve done. What a Muslim will do remains to be seen, huh?

Yes I'd forgotten about those incidents.
In addition there were the shootings (murders) of CIA employees in McLean, Va. who were waiting at a stop light. The state of Virginia actually managed to execute the Pakistani muslim animal who did the shootings. There was a shooting at the top of the Empire State Building by another crazy, fanatic muslim who was "offended" about something. I believe some people were killed in that incident also. And of course the 2001 9/11 attack and the previous 1993 attack on the World Trade Center. Yes indeed, the Islamic/Arab war against America has ongoing for some time.

Perhaps not by the victim, but surely by a bystander.

And this exactly the reason that the UN, the muslim in chief, democrats and RINOs want us to be disarmed.
To them, islam is not a threat, but Christianity certainly is.

2 recruiters in Georgia have already been attacked by a Muslim.
We’re still asleep on the homefront.
