Two policemen have been wounded in a shooting on the Champs Elysees in Paris, French media say.

Some reports say the gunman who fired on them has been killed by police.

Add to that that Obama is now campaigning for the communist candidate Macron. Marine LP is a shoo in for this election.

Let me guess the reasons. Lone wolf attack. Family will say they were off their meds. Had problem as children, were not able to practice their sharia prayers 4 times a day.

White man never gave them good jobs. Trump made us do it.
