Put this all together and it seems silly to me to not acquire a handgun by some means and pack it in France if you ride the subway. No-one will ever know you're carrying a gun and if you have to use it you'll never get caught. If you somehow do get caught after killing an attacker with it, the sentence will be relatively light.
I don’t understand how Sarko can so sanguinely say, “If you are assaulted by an armed burglar, he will use his weapon more effectively than you anyway, so you are risking your life.” He’s a smart man, so his use of the word ‘more effectively’ is beyond my comprehension. If he had said ‘with reckless abandon’ instead, I could’ve understood (disagreed, but understood). But ‘more effectively’?! How does he know that? How dare he say that?!
So much for my hopes for France and Sarko. I guess he's just a French Rudy Guiliiani.

It was Leninist dogma and hence Liberal belief that the criminal classes are social allies of the Left, representatives of the repressed and oppressed classes and , handily, useful for intimidating the bourgeoisie- the middle class.
French culture is being destroyed by French Socialism.
Because, like most politicians, he knows what is best for you better than you do :-)
He is a statist. Pure and simple. To him, the state trumps the individual in matters of life and limb.
This is a total liberal BS scare tactic. Anyone who owns a firearm for self defense will likely be better trained, prepared, and equipped than the average armed thug. I will guarantee you, here in Florida, if an armed person enters my home he or she will be at a major disadvantage and will very likely leave in a Police body bag.
My wife and I have a sign on our door that says, “The owner's of this property are armed. There is nothing inside worth risking your life for.”

Take a look at any photos of the riots in France over the last couple of years. If you didn't know where those photos were taken, you'd swear you were looking at a scene in Detroit or Los Angeles. And the typical rioter in those photos looks no different than the suspects in the recent Sean Taylor murder, or the perps in the "Jena 6" attack.
That's just the muzzie clildren "playing". Just wait till their parents get mad, they are probably armed with better equipment that the French army, and outnumber them too. We are doing the same thing, allowing and paying an enemy army 5 times the size of ours to trench themselves in our own country. I bet Hitler is green with envy.
Sounds logical to me.
Not criticizing you. I just find this whole business more than a little upsetting.

That’s why some here had better start paying attention, and begin arming themselves now...
France is proud of their radical secularism, and they don't take kindly to any attempts to change that system. That's why you don't see the kind of radical Islamic nonsense in France that you see in Great Britain. If some imam gets up in a mosque and starts making statements against the French government, he's likely to be arrested by the police and deported from the country with the kind of "due process" that would make Pat Buchanan seem like a Mexican Muslim.
I am sure you are right. But are you comfortable with those blinders on?
“hand-wringing pandering socialists”
You forgot bed-wetting.
That sentence caught my eye as well. I've heard similar statements from gun controllers in the U.S. as well - "he'll only take it from you." These are clearly not informed statements from anyone who actually owns firearms, because they're simply untrue.
A little range time will tell you who shoots and who only plays at it. 90% of the criminal class only plays at it. For them a gun is a magic wand, and if they're the only ones armed, it really is. If they aren't, it's just a gun.
The real irresponsibility here is to allow the criminal population to own and employ firearms without consequence and to deny that to innocent civilians. That isn't simply permitting a dangerous situation to eventuate, it's actively creating one.
That is BS, Buglers do not want to get dead. Shoot in the direction of the attacker about waist high and pull the trigger, reload and keep shooting. Then dial 911.
