The gun confiscation politicians will never take guns away from jihadists. France has open borders, multiculturalism and strict gun control. This is a situation that ensures that a small number of terrorists can kill a large number of innocent citizens.

[kiryandil]

Of course it did.

Only Lefty progtard ostriches believe otherwise.

[Tzimisce]

Of course disarming the French played no role.

Global Warming did (see Bernie Sanders).

Did France's Strict Gun Control Contribute to the Paris Bloodbath?
YES!

[butlerweave]

No , the weapons came with the Terrorists from Belgium ,where it’s to get weapons

[BobL]

One thing we DO KNOW - which is that France’s gun control laws DID NOTHING to stop this attack.

As to whether it would have been lessened if a sprinkling of civilians were carrying - no real way to answer that.

One thing I know, because I have been told in no uncertain terms, if Trump is elected that sort of thing will not happen here. Because Trump will outlaw all “Gun free” Zones.
I do not know if he will require all citizens to be armed at all times or not.

[Bloody Sam Roberts]

Did it? I say no.

Guns alone would not have made one bit of difference. It would have required Parisians with the wherewithall to carry them and the guts to use them.

[bgill]

It certainly didn't help.

[SkyDancer]

The liberal mindset of the French on personal firearms would have precluded anyone from having one.

“Did France’s Strict Gun Control Contribute to the Paris Bloodbath?”

In a word, HELL YES. Next dumb ass question....

French Resistance fighters man a barricade in Paris (August, 1944).

If not why did we drop these from Airplanes?

I listened to a few BBC radio interviews over the weekend. One was with a very heroic young man who lay atop his girlfriend on the floor of the Bataclan Theatre while they pretended to be dead.

He said the two killers were simply executing people. They’d reload and the killings would stop for minutes. Then they’d start again.

A theater of hundreds of people held at bay by two people. Granted, they had big firepower, but had a few of the people in that theater had their own weapons, might not more people be alive today?

[pfflier]

It is unlikely that the concert and sporting events outcome would have been different.

Unless several people had ccw permits and were willing to get involved then the odds are heavily in favor of the attackers.

In venues like that in the US, legal guns still would have been blocked by entry screening.

On the second part, even if people have weapons they are primarily trained to survive and protect themselves, not stop a general (and powerful) attack.

The only real way to prevent this is eliminate the threat before it can attack. Bravo to the governors who are standing up to odumbo about letting syrians into the country.

[Mr Rogers]

That is OK. We’re going to bring the same folks into the US so our elementary schools can look like Paris...because, after all, ISIS is contained, and we don’t want to hurt the feelings of Muslims...
