A French teacher who had recently shown students cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed was beheaded outside his school on Friday, in what President Emmanuel Macron called an "Islamist terrorist attack".

The assailant, whose identity has not been established, was shot by police as they tried to arrest him and later died of his injuries, police said.

The attacker shouted "Allahu Akbar" ("God is greatest") as police confronted him, a cry often heard in jihadist attacks, a police source said.

I’d be surprised if these cartoons are part of the standard curriculum in French schools, but if I was holding them up in a class that included moslims then I would sure want the means to defend myself. At least in the U.S. teachers have a choice - just as they do in case of these mass school shootings.
