French President Emmanuel Macron condemned Friday’s mass shooting attack at a Kurdish cultural center in Paris, which killed three people and wounded four.

"The Kurds of France have been the target of a heinous attack in the heart of Paris. Our thoughts are with the victims, the people who are struggling to live, their families and loved ones," Macron said in a tweet.

The attack took place in the Rue d'Enghien in the 10th arrondissement of the French capital. Two of the wounded are in critical condition.

An eyewitness told AFP that seven or eight shots were fired during the attack.

Stricter gun laws would have stopped it. Oui ou non!

A 9 mm pill from a Grande Puissance might have stopped it, too.

A Turk. Possibly ISIS. Maybe Iranians.

Kurds have a lot of enemies.

A Frenchman? Would the muslims there riot if it were “just” a muslim crime against fellow muslims?

PARIS, France (AFP) — A 69-year-old white French gunman who opened fire at a Kurdish cultural center in Paris killing three people told investigators he was racist, a source close to the case said Saturday...
...“He is crazy, he’s an idiot,” [Supposed shooter’s] father was quoted as saying by the M6 television channel.

Apparently the Seattle Times found a motive:

The suspected attacker was wounded and is in custody. He is a 69-year-old Parisian who was charged last year with attacking migrants and was released earlier this month. He is facing potential charges of murder and attempted murder with a racist motive, the Paris prosecutor’s office said Saturday.

Could be anti- migrant, rather than anti-Kurd.

You are correct. Muslims think Kurds worship the devil, I mean they literally think they are devil worshippers.

Who were these attackers? Were they French anti-Kurdish immigrants, anti-Kurdish Muslims, or simply French neighborhood nuts feeling their country is being invaded by alien cultures?

I believe you are confusing the Kurds with the Yazidis.

Macron.

He needs a nice little false flag to go on a gun confiscation crusade.

Macron oozes a character from a 1972 Pink Panther movie. Thats all I can think of when I see his image - Inspector Clouseau.

I don’t recall him being this upset when a 12-year-old French girl was kidnapper, raped, and murdered by some Algerians just a few weeks ago.

On November 13, 2015 130 Parisians were massacred on the streets of Paris and some 400 others were wounded by Muslim terrorists.

And the French are all just because some Turks got killed celebrating a stupid ‘’football’’ match.

Mon Dieu. Quels idiot.

Kurds in N. Syria told me that the Kurds claim they are the decendants of Yazidis (aka Ezidi). The Yazidis(Ezidi) do worship some angel, but they have smattering of other religions. They are very secretive, their religious ceremony is memorized and not written. They are largely pacifist. Since ISIS, that has changed and they have armed themselves.

Note, There are a large number of Kurds who are Jewish. Over the years of persecution many have moved to Israel.
