Two men carrying a knife and an electronic stun gun stormed the Planet Sushi restaurant in the city's Latin Quarter on Sunday night, demanding money from the till.

But the team of Japanese staff turned on the men, stabbing one to death with a fish knife used for preparing sushi dishes, while the other was pinned to the ground outside the restaurant.

It’s not good for the waiters. The police are drilling them to find out who gave the fatal blow. All seven waiters are being kept at the station on “garde à vue”, they don’t even get to call lawyers! C’est la France. You aren’t allowed to stab robbers here, unless they stab you first!

I wonder if it was Muzzie thugs, tired of burning cars.

Oh Vel... Say la Vi.

I like this quote.

France is not part of the UK but part of the European Union...

I agree... not sure what point you're trying to make.

Whatever you say... but I did not respond to post #8; my first response was to post #20.

In any event -- have a nice evening.
