France is NOT a gun free zone! France is one of the most heavily armed countries in the world. OVER 30% of the French are armed. ENGLAND is a GUN FREE ZONE, not France. Please Don’t make statements you can’t back up!

England is not gun free. Hunting rifles are permitted.

“OVER 30% of the French are armed.”

Could you give me a source for that number? It is higher than most that I have seen. Perhaps it includes the number of illegal guns in France.

And to get a gun in France you have to go to a range and prove you can shoot straight.

I looked into their gun laws. They are byzantine but doable.

And they had conscription until not too long ago. Most of my French friends who are my age served., I wish people would quit blaming all of french citizens for their country’s issues they are helpless against their own government just like us. And like us they try to do what they can but are outnumbered by the libs in the huge cities.

Not quite gun-free. There are 2 million legally-owned guns in the U.K.

You should know wtf you are talking about before you throw stones! Read about France’s gun control laws.
