So what’s new. Europe has never understood our freedoms or our guns. That’s why we’re America and they’re...not.

How is the Mood about this Massacre in Germany Lucy?

Is the attitude the same in France or do they have bigger problems?

Don’t forget about the Unarmed Police Officer who rolled up on the scene. After the Muzzie shot him from across the street, the Rat Bastard walked up and executed the Cop with two more shots.

On a different note, I still remember the guy that recorded the Two Boston Bombers having a shootout with the Boston P.D. in the middle of the Street from his fourth floor Window on his iPhone.

The Jihadist scum were in full view from the guys window, and he recorded it on Video while cowering in fear.

I guess it’s just me, but if I were in that spot I would have opened the Gun Cabinet, chose the appropriate Weapon and picked off the two scum before they even realized what happened to them.

Then again, it was Boston and I probably would have ended up being sent to Prison. Welcome to Hopey Changey America.

The muzzies will be armed while the Frenchies will be issued white sheets for surrendering when the time comes.

Over here we laughed at the video of the unarmed police running from the terrorists.

I think more of us cried... Especially when the one French policeman was executed.

“Guns Are Highly Regulated in France.”
______________________________________________

Yet the muzzie attackers of Charlie Hebdo had no problem getting plenty of them.

Then there was the foiled attack on the Amsterdam to Paris train.

Contrast that with our view of the emasculated wimps in Europe, and in particular, the French surrender-monkeys...

This is the same Europe that profited from the Marshall Plan. Without the USA in 1945, there would not have been a Europe today with their months-long vacations and social goodies. You Euroweenies, better take your vacations ASAP because you won’t be able to carry them over when the muzzies will be your bosses.

A blood stained continent such as Europe, with it’s many wars over the centuries, should not be looking down their noses at America.

Reminds me of the old full page adds in US magazines back in 1940.

PLEASE SEND A GUN TO DEFEND A BRITISH HOME!

If the Germans had tried to invade after Dunkirk the Brits would have met them on the beaches armed with those traditional English weapons, the Assault Pitchfork, hay rake and garden hoe!

These are the guys who kicked out the hated colonists from Akrica. But now that they are ‘free’ they want to move to the country of their former ‘slavemasters’.

I imagine Mira Kamdar wet herself, and pooted her panties, in preparation for this article.

Perhaps we should dump off young Mira in the middle of an ISIS-controlled city, so she could get her mind right...

Europe does not suck — it’s the people who occupy that beautiful continent that suck. Y’all better learn to say ‘Allah Akhbar’ loud and clear. But you already know how to do that, don’t you?
(sheesh, I do hope that this dumb nation, that elected Obama twice, learns from what is happening in Europe)

One source - where he takes the raw data put out on many sites (which I found first) but then he turns it into per capita numbers.

“.... of President Obama delivering his solemn remarks....”

.
He was just being the anti-American Kenyan that he is.

“In places like Roseburg, guns are a part of the culture.”

O’Reilly was talking with some guy (newspaper guy?) from Roseburg.

Bill: “Okay - but what about this stash of what - 16 guns in a one-bedroom apartment.”

Guy: “Um - I’m not sure what you are trying to get to by calling it a stash - that seems inflammatory. But if you are talking about the number of weapons - that would not be unreasonable for many of the people that live in Roseburg.”
