During the November 25 airing of Fox Newsâ Special Report, French Ambassador to the United States Gerard Araud countered Donald Trumpâs emphasis on the importance of an armed citizenry by claiming that armed citizens succeed in defending themselves âonly in the movies.â
Araud was specifically reacting to a tweet sent after the January 7 Charlie Hebdo attacks in which Trump wrote, âIsnât it interesting that the tragedy in Paris took place in one of the toughest gun control countries in the world?â Talking Points Memo reported that Araud responded to the tweet by calling Trump a âvulture,â then deleted the tweet after attacking Trump.

They only see movies about the defensive value of guns.
Which is why they need to change their damn gun laws.
Uh, are there some belligerent attack turkeys on the approach? LOL! Have a great Thanksgiving and don’t forget to talk about guns at the feed trough as requested by the white house.
Don’t worry Mr. Ambassador, if you are in our neck of the woods and the jihadies attack, we’ll protect ya.
So the French Resistance in WWII was a myth.
People, in general, are inclined to defend themselves. Better tools equal better defense.
P.S. Did you match those two pictures yourself? If so, well done!
How we can protect our families? Keep ISIS and Obama Syrians out of America, now.
If that fails, we will use our 2nd amendment rights:
You’re much more charitable than we are. If he was in our neighborhood and the jihadis attacked I’d shoot him first.
Why?
Because I can’t trust him to be behind me. He might try to hurt me so I don’t hurt his precious peaceful jihadis.
Does anyone know where to get the firearm bumper sticker? Is there one? I’ve seen it here many times but never in “real” life. Me likey. If I had any weapons, they’d all(?) be in the safe getting along just fine. Some of them might even share their ‘feed’ with one another.
I guess M. Araud never heard about the French Revolution.
Or perhaps he now pretends that his “aristocratic” ancestors never met Madame Guillotine,,,,
Yeah, we saw the video of the father teaching his son to protect himself from terrorists with flowers.
The French Ambassador should check Youtube , plenty of Criminals get a big surprise when the victim pulls a gun and shoots them in the face

I think the boy has watched too many movies. He’s out of touch with what is going on in real life.
Happy Thanksgiving to you too, fellow FReeper!
He parodies himself.
Sweet wasn’t it. Did he also present him a little miniature white flag? Maybe I missed that part.
For Sale: Antique French Army rifle, only dropped twice.
I’ve never liked crowds and am acutely aware of how helpless they make an individual. Its even worse inside a contained space. In my youth I used to go to clubs like this but always found a spot by the wall within a few steps of an emergency exit. Emergency exits usually can’t be opened from the outside so there are no surprises there.
Situational awareness.
