Consider Obama statement, “The future must not belong to those who slander Islam”

This is the same as saying those who slander Islam should die.
Tomorrow is the future. To say, “Tomorrow must not belong to those who slander Islam”, is the same as saying they should die today.

12 died that may not have had French police been armed.

Of course muslims burning cars on New Years in France was 940 cars torched this year.

Maybe if police were armed it would cut down on loss of life and property, ya think?

You mean to say that calmly "communicating" with the terrorists, sympathizing with their perceived oppression and explaining to them that the Paris police really know they're "just misunderstood", didn't lead to a non-violent resolution to the conflict?

Who knew?!?!

A policeman who had been assigned the position of bodyguard to Charlie Hebdo editor, Stephane Charbonnier, was killed, and one policeman on a mountain bike was killed, as well.

The Ferguson protestors should love these terrorists.

[Zhang Fei]

Surprising. I thought all French cops were heavily-armed with SMG’s.

[Sarah Barracuda]

Coming soon to America..what do you think all these protests you see in the streets are about..its ALL about disarming cops and this is what happens..you have police walking around with NO GUNS..so they are sitting ducks, how were they supposed to stop these terrorist scum who have machine guns, with a banana?

[Pollster1]

It's a very good thing the French police were unarmed - without firearms in the hands of police, gun violence was greatly reduced. France only had three Muslims inflicting gun violence, instead of those three terrorists plus a number of armed police officers engaging in gun violence simultaneously. Since gun violence is bad, isn't any reduction in gun violence good?

“Three (unarmed) police arrived on bikes.”
Now that’s just pathetic. And this happened in an upscale tourist neighborhood in the heart of Paris. If this had went down anywhere in the USA in an upscale, heavily metropolitan area, you would have had dozens of squad cars full of cops armed to the teeth as soon as the radio said “shots fired”. And a few minutes later, SWAT would show up. And they would have chased those dogs down and gunned them to shreds, damn the traffic and the pedestrians. I don’t care what the world says about America’s cops and their “cowboy” image, but that’s how we roll in this country.

Unarmed and on bicycles. This is the Europe of Charles Martel.

“fled after seeing gunmen armed with automatic weapons and possibly a grenade launcher.”

You got to know when to hold ‘em, know when to fold ‘em
Know when to walk away and know when to run

[PLMerite]

That’s coming here, soon. Can’t shoot someone with their “hands up” if you don’t have a gun.

“The UK’s Independent reported that “three policemen ...had to leave because [the attackers] were armed.” A policeman who had been assigned the position of bodyguard to Charlie Hebdo editor, ...was killed, and one policeman on a mountain bike was killed, as well.”

It would have been the same in the UK - police don't normally carry guns, either. HOWEVER, don't think the people in France and England don't have guns. Sure, bad guys will get them. However, there are guns among the citizens - you just have to be better than the usual riff/raff citizen to get one or more.

Most of us would be riff/raff citizens and would be put in jail if we had a gun. However, our “betters”, those with land and high placed government friends, have guns. My son has lived there long enough to live among the “gentry”, and he can go hunting with them on their land with rifles. So, the guns are there, you just need to be high enough on the social scale to get one.

See, I think that system stinks. Neither French or English citizens are free - that is a myth fed to the citizens. I have lived in England long enough to know how I have to fit in a box, just like they do, in order to stay out of trouble. They were born in their box and don't realize they are in one. To the English, Texas is full of people with guns and boots and cows and oil flowing on the land.

The riff raff English think we should give up our guns - they don't know why anyone would want one (but, ahhha! remember their rich have them). The killings today should show the French (and English) why at least their police (along with the rich gentry) should have guns, but it won't.

The caste system of living levels, has always been there and here, and always will be. Only here can one lift oneself to higher social levels and perks, and stay there. If one hasn't lived with the utterly rich, it's a world unto itself. Weapons for protection are surely there.

In summary, the rich around the world have weapons. The normal riffraff citizenry in most countries do not have weapons. Police around the world will get killed if without weapons. For the time being, the riffraff citizenry in the United States have weapons. In my opinion, if Muslim Brotherhood friend Obama has his way, only Muslims will have weapons in this country.

Don’t worry Jim. I’m sure a strongly worded letter from the UN will have the Muzzies quaking in their boots.

May the rest of France’s police lay down their lives under such noble circumstances.

And may it happen quickly.
