French Surrender Firearms in Record Numbers During Government Crackdown
Breitbart ^ | 12/01/2022 | Simon Kent

French gun owners are surrendering their weapons in record numbers at police collection points across the country as a round up of unlicensed firearms winds down.

France is keen to limit the number of illegally owned firearms – as many as six million, authorities estimate – and the Macron government is offering an amnesty in an effort to limit their distribution.

Rifles, handguns, ammunition, even knives and grenades, have been handed in at 300 collection points across the country since the start of the Ministry of Interior’s campaign on Nov. 25.

Isn’t that why they call the French “surrender monkeys”?

Some record. 65,000 turned in, so at least 98.9% of the “illegal” firearms were not turned in.

I guess someone has to say it, so I will. The whole French “surrender monkey” thing started when France collapsed during 1940 Nazi invasion.

That collapse was not due to cowardice. The Germans simply had better leaders, much better leaders. It’s also worth remembering that the British could evacuate at Dunkirk largely because of the heroic rearguard action of the French at Lille.

It’s hard to believe these are the decedents of the French Revolution and WWII French Maquis.

Truly the French have devolved into Flag Waiving, Cheese Eating SURRENDER MONKEYS !!!!

I think you want ‘descendants’, not ‘decedents’.

I wouldn’t believe this anti-gun and anti-inalienable rights propaganda.

Thank you, I am honored to know two “cheese eating surrender monkeys” that served all over Africa and French Indochina as Legion Paras.

Even in their ‘70s and ‘80s they’d laugh at anyone that said that....and could kill them with their bare hands.
