It is also an anti-Christian stance (and other faiths as well) If a person has no right to self defense, which is a core natural right, then it follows all rights are decided and doled out by the government.

The French should defend themselves from Macron.

“But I am opposed to self-defense. It’s very clear and undisputable because otherwise the country becomes the Wild West. “

This contains an implicit assertion that EVERYONE is a foaming at the mouth psycho just looking to do violence. You’d run out of troublemakers pretty quickly. Which is why “An armed society is a polite society “.

Is anyone surprised that the French won’t defend themselves?

Why bother when Americans can come to save you?

—”The French national anthem is about defense.”

Totally!
And ever-present calls to tone it down...

La Marseillaise and Victor Hugo make me totally regret not taking a French language course.

La Marseillaise, sung by Mireille Mathieu. American English subtitles.

A lovely songbird with her heart in it. Enjoy!

Arise children of the fatherland
The day of glory has arrived
Against us tyranny’s
Bloody standard is raised
Listen to the sound in the fields
The howling of these fearsome soldiers
They are coming into our midst
To cut the throats of your sons and consorts

Good men with guns, willing to use them, made the wild west less wild.

“Everyone must be safe, and the public authorities have to ensure it,” Macron told Europe 1.”

Yep, when seconds counts the police is only minutes away.

What a moron!

That attitude is why the U.S., Canada, England and Australia had to take France back from the Germans twice in the 1900s.

My grandfather used to say that the only way we could make the French hate us anymore is to win another war for them.

Voting in France: Paper ballots, cast in person; no machines French voters in Sunday’s presidential election will use the same system that’s been used for generations

Sounds great, right?

Until you actually read the article.

If she wins it's because France's Deep State has compromised her and/or it didn't dare steal this one.

Folks, do what the enemedia counts on you rarely to do. Read the entire damn article.

Who wants to bet that he’d change his tune if it was him in this situation? What an arrogant ahole. That said, it’s aligned with European thinking, the rights of the collective come first, not the individual. Therefore the only people that should be able to use a weapon is the collective...aka government.

I’m originally from the UK, I don’t discuss guns with friends and family over there. They do not think when it comes to the topic....”guns are bad” is the only thought they have and it is the end of the discussion, aside from them thinking less of you. Any consideration about being an ‘unarmed populace’ that is vulnerable to a freedom killing government is lost on them.

Having the rights of the individual coming first, before the will of the collective, is an American virtue. It is the only place that understands this concept. Not in the UK, Canada, mainland Europe, China, Russia, etc. or anywhere recognizes this right. This is what makes the USA special. It took me years to understand this and many Americans born here don’t either - we call them lefties.

The Declaration of Independence appeals on the basis of “the laws of nature and of nature’s God.” Natural law grounds the God-given rights:
We hold these truths to be self-evident: That all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness;
"Life" is first among the natural laws. Without life, you have nothing, you don't exist. Therefore, the laws of nature and the nature's God grant you the right to self defense.

Macron's denial of this simple truth is appalling.
