"The Water Cannon is nozzle attachment mounted to the forward left side of the Aircrane capable of tilting up or down for increased control of the water stream. Connected to the 2,500 gallon (~9,500 litre) tank, the Water Cannon delivers a horizontal stream of water or foam mix up to 160 feet (~49 m) at a rate of 300 gallons (~1,140 litres per minute). With a full water tank, the cannon system is capable of maintaining the 300 gpm (~1,140 lpm) flow for up to eight minutes."
My head is going to explode.
Jokes about the French surrendering to the invaders are a temptation at this point, but in truth, it is not funny. Somehow, the whole of Western society has surrendered the right to defend its borders or culture from the onslaught of these throwbacks to the 7th Century.
A few truckloads of concertina wire could make a good start.
You know, um, dare I say it - there is a real obvious solution to this problem, at least from the French perspective...
Give them a ride.
The west had better get serious about this problem, and soon.
Just be happy that things haven't gotten to this point (YET) with our illegals here in the USA,
but as they become more and more militant, aided and abetted by La Raza, the ACLU and the Democrat party, it's only a matter of time.
We have the same thing here but we call it the "American Dream".
Eventually the cost of containing these Jihadists will become uneconomical. The only rational alternative will be war to kill them or drive them out. It's coming. The left is using every available means to twist the law toward a Marxist state. The Muslims are simply a pawn for them. The wealthy elite owe the Sheiks so they too contribute to the problem. In France, I see the comeback of the Guillotine once the pot boils over. It's Europe, They are due for a major war.
All the razor wire in the world does not substitute for will, and the Western (reads white if you do not want to be decieved by PC) man has lost that and prefers to live in the fantasy world of liberalism. Even here Respail’s “Camp of the Saints” is reviled by the emotive types who prefer to listen to the Kudlows of the world preach the gospel of lowering taxes as the way to heaven. Its just that cop you quote said more about liberalism than a million conservative commentators who depend on the system could ever say.
Thanks for posting. Very interesting.
Yes. Masses of ungoverned and ungovernable people on the move bode ill for civilization. Always have.
What many don't realize is that instigating this kind of trouble is a tactic of the hard left-- to create chaos using "human waves" of vagrants to overwhelm western institutions, incite repression and reaction, eventually rioting and violence, so the socialist disease can take hold.
“Just be happy that things haven’t gotten to this point (YET) with our illegals here in the USA”
That’s because they are perfectly happy to stay in the USA, they aren’t just trying to pass through...
England needs to close its borders for a year. The French will have to handle the problem themselves. It will get worse if these people from the middle east keep coming into France. France needs to close their borders also. They best get a handle on this or they will be totally taken over by muslims.
“The Camp of the Saints”, Jean Raspail published in 1973. This story reads as if it came right out of the book. Raspail was a prophet.
Amen. BTW, the Southern Poverty Law Center calls my second novel the American "Camp of the Saints."
What did you expect -- people to just hand you food, accomodations, and toilets? ROFL!
