None of the above have ever worked against criminals. One should ask Neville Chamberlain about that piece of paper that he and all world leaders seem to be holding.

Be fair, Neville knew war was coming, he also knew Britain, at the time, was in no position to fight that war. Right afterwards, he started building up the British military.

Was just a matter of time. While bleeding hearts were blaming guns just last month I knew that it was a matter of time before it was a truck. I just thought it would be rush hour in NYC. Maybe that is next.

Probably one of those high capacity trucks that can kill dozens in a few seconds.

Why would anyone need a truck that big?

First, we need to immediately stop, by EO, the importation of all Syrian or other ME refugees.

Then: From Lame Cherry: http://lamecherry.blogspot.com/

"There is not going to require a massive deportation of these invaders, as the reality is if these points are followed, the invaders will leave:

*Cease all welfare payments.

*Place a 50% tariff on all funds being transferred out of America to deportation nations.

*Fine and imprison every business for employing illegals.

*Pay a bounty of 1000 dollars to every person who reports illegals employed, housed or documented.

* End Lutheran Social Service and Catholic charities payments for illegals they import."

Most are unemployable. Stop the welfare, stop the food stamps, stop the EBT cards and they will leave.

Actually, Chamberlain did declare war against Germany after the invasion of Poland, but proved to be an ineffective leader in wartime.

War with Islam is on its way.

Sorry, but that war's been going on (with occasional cease-fires and other governmental delusions) for 1400 years.

Only difference is in use of trucks and airplanes and high explosive instead of just hacking away with a sword.

....and if the "rest of the world is going to finally fight back", your estimated time frame better be in terms of months or maybe even weeks and the ROE's better be absolutely nothing but "Go Get Some".

I would suggest you hide your head. This is going to get ugly.

Heartbreaking photo.... absolutely heartbreaking. That is someone’s precious little girl under that blanket.

I am so tired of this. The usual suspects will be along shortly to tell us we need more of this in our nation. I don’t think all of the refugees want this by any stretch and I realize many of them are fleeing from horrors in Syria that we can only begin to imagine, but the facts are we don’t need unskilled immigrants who mostly go straight onto welfare on top of the 20k we spend to bring them here. We simply don’t need it. It does not benefit our nation in any way and it increases the probability of attacks like this.

I would like to believe our country understands this better than the morons in D.C. and the media. If not, our country is doomed. This is insanity and we should wipe ISIS out with absolute certainty and tell everyone else over there to mind their p’s and q’s or they are next. Enough nation building and carrots - it’s time to bring the big stick.

French President Hollande is a weak wimp. He’s out of there next year. Marie La Pen will be the next president. He’s a weak socialist.

“oh obama will say GUN CONTROL NEEDED..”

this time, a gun saved thousands of lives since the driver was shot before he could detonate his bomb.

Citizens will begin fighting back in bloody revenge attacks against these muzzie cowards. Enough already! Governments in Europe are flooding their country's with these muzzies who then begin to impose Islamic principles on French, British, German, Swedish citizens.

At some point, these folks will begin pushing back. Who the hell could blame them.

One graphic pic shows a little girl laying dead in the street, her doll beside her. Absolute evil has been unleashed on the earth.

Chamberlain did do one thing right, recommending Churchill as PM as one of his last acts.

True. It would have turned out better had Churchill taken over in 1939.

Islam has been at war with everyone else for 1400 years. But the rest of the world has only sporadically fought back.

I believe that will be changing in the not too far away future.

Good God.

At some point, people will take matters into their own hands when the so-called leaders do not. Long past time.

Yeah, he just wasn’t cut out to fight a war. We need different leaders at different stages, it seems.

Chamberlain never gets credit for being then one to declare war. You do one crazy wrong thing, like stand coming outside an airplane declaring ‘peace in our time’, and you’re branded for life.
