I can find nothing of why they stopped, have you found anything?

Actually, the receptionist who let them in and several others said that they - at least the ones who spoke to her - spoke “perfect French.” In other words, they weren’t foreigners.

I do, too. These people contribute nothing to our society. Why we have ever allowed them here is beyond me.

Just dealt with a group of them at work as patients.... They were here In search of a better life, so they said .... But partaking in this better life means becoming an upstanding citizen and respecting the laws and people of our country .... Not bending it to their demands. Anything less than swearing an oath to this effect should land them on the first plane back to their countries of origin ..... Then again, they lie when it’s convenient for them to do so.

Weapons and equipment isn’t the problem. The problem is and always will be people.

“Je suis Charlie” bumpersticker:

Given that these folks were probably your Garden variety leftist atheists (actually strike that -- they were much braver than the Garden variety type) - I will pass on that bumpersticker. However I agree with the sentiment to stop lying and not sugar-coat a Satanic Death cult that wants the West dead.

Actually I don’t like “proportional” responses. The response to savage Islamic attacks should be grossly disproportionate, for example identifying the base of support and then killing a thousand of them for each one of us they kill.

Agree 100%.
You have to hit back with extreme force, wipe them out and take no prisoners! (because some dimwit will let them out, to kill again, heh)

When a bully came up to me in Jr. High, and hassled me, then gave me a bloody nose. I completely went ballistic on him and left him on the ground bleeding. We both got hauled into the Princ. office. I didn't get in trouble, the bully did. And he never bugged me again. :)

of course this was back when schools were sane, but I digress...

I will take your suggestion one step further, get them before they get us! See my tag line.

I have seen eyes like that before. They were on a water moccasin!
Another time on my ex-wife.
They were both VERY p-s-ed.

Superior firepower?

The police were responding to gunmen, and they were unarmed? If the murdering pigs had had knives, they would have had superior firepower over the French Police.

Things are moving down hill more rapidly now than last year.

Dan Blocker was born in 1928. This pic was from In the Clutches of the Gang made in 1914.

One of the witnesses quoted the attackers as saying “We are al Queda” in French. I thought Obama had said they were all gone.

If I’m a French cop I’m demanding a gun or I don’t go back to work.

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

Most French police are armed. These may have been the Police Municipale who are basically little more than traffic and parking enforcement. The Police Nationale are responsible for criminal enforcement in the big cities, with the Gendarmerie responsible for smaller towns and the countryside. Nationales are armed with the SIG Sauer SP2022 and, as needed, with the the SIG SG -540 assault rifle.
