I bet they didn’t forget to bring their whistles...

[nonliberal]

They’re french. Did you expect less?

[Responsibility2nd]

The officers were heard to yell...

“STOP! Or I’ll Blow my Whistle!”

[MeshugeMikey]

[I want the USA back]

Filthy disgusting subhuman savages.

[henkster]

And then killing them.

“.....without defensive weaponry were entirely unprepared to face an ongoing attack by murderous, AK-47-wieldling Islamist gunmen. The first police to arrive at the scene of the attack were forced to withdraw in the face of superior firepower”.........

And the media labels them “cowards”? What a bunch of frigging idiots the liberal media bastards are. What person in their right mind would stand there “unprotected” against a better equipped force? Why didn't the media just walk up to the terrorists and interview them while this was all going on?

[HiTech RedNeck]

When will the French clamor for the right to self defense... and this is just silly, they call the gendarmes and they are not gende’ing any armes???

[Politicalkiddo]

Ah, the French.

[GOPJ]

...note and criticize the fact that the first responders who arrived at the scene on bicycles and without defensive weaponry were entirely unprepared to face an ongoing attack by murderous, AK-47-wieldling Islamist gunmen. The first police to arrive at the scene of the attack were forced to withdraw in the face of superior firepower.

If liberal elites had their way our people would be just as helpless....

[aquila48]

They just don’t have strong enough gun control in France.

RE: .without defensive weaponry were entirely unprepared to face an ongoing attack by murderous, AK-47-wieldling Islamist gunmen

OK, if owning AK-47 ((or any gun for that matter ) is BANNED in France, how did these thugs get them?

[jayrunner]

Why in this day and age, do Britain and France still refuse to arm their police?

[AU72]

If only the magazine made their building a gun-free zone!

[ifinnegan]

Yeah. Tu es Charlie all you want but unless you hunt down and kill these perpetrators it don’t mean squat.

[DaveA37]

“the local Parisians who recalled hearing the attackers speak “bad French”.

Who would know better, our media or the French people who were there?

There are so many different accents and dialects in THIS country, most Americans might have a problem understanding proper English. For example, southern folks (no offense) have a way of speaking the way northern people do. Blacks use ebonics, etc.
