The French government has authorized the distribution of an antidote to counter the potentially deadly effects of nerve gas as it rushes to expand security measures after the Paris terrorist attacks that killed 129 people.

In a decree published in the French Official Gazette on Sunday, two days after the attacks, the director-general of social affairs, Benoît Vallet, authorized the release of atropine sulfate solution from military stockpiles.

The decree stated that the decision to do so was made “considering that the risk of terrorist attacks and the risk of exposure to neurotoxic organophosphates are serious health risks that require urgent measures.”

Now why would they do that?

[BuffaloJack]

The standard antidote for nerve gas and other similar poisons is atropine. Atropine comes from daffodil bulbs.
And don’t just go out to the garden and start munching on your wife’s daffodil bulbs, it is quite easy to overdose on atropine from eating them and get sick enough to need hospitalization.

What's a little nerve gas? What's bombs? Before this mass killing, who was doing anything. Give it a few months and France will still be overrun by ISIS and nothing will change. What is so scary is after our 9/11 things were hot. Where has it been in this King Obama’s term. I'll tell you what, ISIS has been let in and we are in one hell of trouble.

It won’t be long before the only people on the streets of France will be all islamists, and they still would conduct a chemical attack even on other islamist just to keep people in their homes, it is all for jihad donchano...
