Yes, it is never too early to turn a vicious muzz slime attack into a political agenda. The leftards will ignore the gore caused by the truck driver and focus only on the gun (which is already illegal in Francistan)
I’d want out of the EU if I were a French voter.
Well, there goes the “Gun control stops terrorism” canard.

Dear God the monumental stupidity of the US Media talking heads is too much for me to take.
I’m tired of the bulls***. I swear it seems the only male left in the entire Western world with a set of testicles and a modicum of common sense is Donald Trump.
If Moslems will not reform Islam the civilized world will have to force it on them. Or eradicate them. Islam as it exists today must end.
"Let’s be clear: Islam is not our adversary. Muslims are peaceful and tolerant people and have nothing whatsoever to do with terrorism."

Agree. The Founding Fathers couldn't possibly have envisioned trucks of this size when they wrote the Constitution.
