Impossible. It’s illegal to have guns in France.

Could be a terror attack? Since when do normal Parisians go around armed with an AK47? They’d be arrested if they were caught with a knife over four inches long.

We’ll probably never know their motivation.

The sad part is we will never know what motivated the gunman.

Sleep disorders? Who knows?

Looks like time to bring out the candles and teddy bears for the obligatory “peace” vigil.

Were they “shouting ‘slogans’”?

“Unconfirmed reports suggest other shooters were involved and shots have been heard at a second location nearby.”

If in America during the Fraud’s reign, by tomorrow Big Media would be reporting there was only one shooter.

If only France had enacted common sense gun control measures to prevent this from happening!

Will the French news reports indicate the gunmen were shouting “Dieu est Grand”?

Some of those Methodists really get worked up over fine points of theology.
