I guess European gun control doesn’t work.
Arrest the American tourist for assault
A Son of Barack?
The gunman, said to be of “North African origin,” is said to have been “taken down” by a group of US marines onboard the train.

We are in some Dire Straights.
Years ago on a train ride in France, I was almost overcome by Belgian BO and the fumes from their black tobacco, but I didn’t shoot anyone.
“We are in some Dire Straights.”
The Sultans of Swing will fix that.
US Marines take dowm Mohammad in France? Is that legal? Will France send him to Gitmo’?

Man with machine gun in Arras (France) taken down by US Marines
According to Voix du Nord, the marines heard what appeared to be the sound of a gun being loaded coming from the toilets on the train.
They tried to detain him and the man fired, wounding three people, two of whom were struck by bullets, the newspaper reported.

Dire straights is a poker hand, I think. Dire Straits is something you get into as well as a great rock band. I once heard a DJ refer to the band as “Der Strauss.” And that was here in America. Jughead I guess.
Why was this moved to General/Chat? Is it not a newsworthy post?...................US MARINES take down terrorist!.........................
Give credit to the French police for some brains. The first thing the DC police would do is to rule out links to terrorism . . .
Who remembers Chief Moose?
Straits Times? Phooey.
I thought there for a minute
that heterosexuals finally
got our own newspaper.
I think that would be “rasis” or “homophobic” or something. The commie libs would come up with some kind of label for it. The ‘RATs are expert label makers.
WOW!!
Semper fi!!!!!!!
My 'Brothers in Arms' handled it. Well done. S/F
