French hero Arnaud Beltrame, who sacrificed himself to save a hostage from a Islamist terrorist, won’t have a place named after him because it may upset Marseille’s huge Muslim community, Valeurs Actuelles reports.
On 24 March 2018, an ISIS terrorist stormed a supermarket in Trèbes, armed with a handgun, a hunting knife and three homemade bombs. He shot two people dead and took others hostage.
During the negotiation with the police, the terrorist accepted Beltrame’s offer to swap places with the last hostage, a female cashier.
Beltrame also set his phone on a table with its line open so that police outside could monitor the activity inside.
After a three-hour stand-off with the police, Radouane Lakdim, the 25-year-old terrorist, stabbed (even though rumours circulated that he sliced Beltrame’s throat) and murdered Arnaud Beltrame.
But apparently, paying tribute to Beltrame’s sacifice is seen as being potentially offensive by Marseille’s leftist elected officials.

This is sick and demented!
Western Europe has two sexes. Women and hermaphrodites.
Just cut your own head off now so you don’t offend them by leaving it on your shoulders.
This is when you have submitted to Islam.
Submit or Die
(or kill them all)
French people are as brave as any, and can be ferocious fighters. It’s the French government that is cowardly.
This is what people mean when they say the French are quick to surrender. Stuff like THIS!!
They’re afraid to express pride, when they should be proud.
Sacre’ Bleu!
Let’s be honest, if this happened in the USA, at least 40% of the average citizens would also express ‘discomfort’ with naming a place after such a hero. You know it, and I know it.
I wish it wasn’t so.
But then, at least the discussion would be out in the open,
not meekly decided by faceless Globalists.
Un-freaking believable.
Europe deserves what it’s getting.
Gutless slaves need a strong master to tell them how to behave.
Beneath contempt.
:-(
Beyond ludicrous and stupid.
Name it after Charles Martel instead.
This is logical. In todays world, anyway
France has two types of men: Communists and Vichy cowards.
It’s in their blood and we shed so much of ours to free their country from tyranny.
Never again!!
We need to find out who is offended when a hero protects the innocent from terrorists. Deport anyone who takes offense.
