Muslim Rampage in Paris

Nope. I made a comparison between reserving judgment and waiting to get ALL the details when a cop shoots an unarmed person and not reserving judgment and not waiting to get ALL the details when folks think Muslims are responsible for something.
Yes, identity and action. Two different things. Apples and oranges.

Of course, maybe we wait for all the details when a cop uses force because, regardless of the fact that miscarriages of justice do occur, there are instances where the police use force in the performance of their duties and within the limits of their job.

Can't say that I've come across a time when a terrorist lawfully used force in the performance of his/her duties, though.

I've been over to a few of the refugee camps to help out. And we have an area here in Atlanta that a lot of refugees settle. for the most part, these people are trying to get away from the very things a lot of folks are trying to make them responsible for.
Thank you for being involved!

What, essentially, are the gun laws in France? Is personal ownership legal? and what type, transport, concealment, et al? I consider it an educated guess that they are restrictive.

Umm nice try. But as I just explained to you that I was referring to the RESERVING JUDGMENT and WAITING for the rest of the details, I'm talking about apples to apples. You don't get to change what I'm comparing just so that you can knock what I'm saying.Biggrin

They are VERY restrictive. Which is very interesting but at the same time not so surprising for a country that's historically lampooned for surrendering.

You are correct, you are free to compare two different things all you want. :D

He's not really interested in either one, but he might be interested in moving them to the U.S. and turning them loose.
The first wave of 10,000 arrived in New Orleans yesterday. How long until there are riots in Louisiana?

As they arrive, they will be scattered around the country, but I predict there will be riots somewhere. They are ariving feeling entitled and most of them are military age males. It's just a matter of time before they start trouble. Most are not "refugees'. It's an invasion of military age males promulgated and sanctioned by our very own islamic terrorist sympathizing president. At least , the citizens of Louisiana, unlike Paris, have the right and the ability to defend themselves.

Just the bad guys. Law abiding citizens can't carry a gun in France.

Nor can they carry in Fascist New York & New Jersey. I asked my wife today if this would happen in Houston or Dallas? Maybe but if your the perp you are going to have bullets coming back at you! See its your responsibility to protect yourself..... cops only fill out the paperwork afterwards. Then you are a casualty!!!!

There are presently around 830,000 LTC holders in Texas. That is only a little over 3% of the population. And Dallas and Houston, being the bastions of radical left wing liberalism, probably have a smaller percentage. But that still gives us around 60,000 LTC holders in Houston. That is almost 10 times the police (4000) and sheriff's (2200) departments can put in the field. I doubt we will have much of a problem in Texas. :)

To be fair, I don't know how much good a gun will do against a suicide bomber.

Not that I plan on leaving mine at home.

Face it.....Europe is toast. What the Ottoman empire could not do (overtake Europe), Radical Islam is overtaking. 1st off, we don't even know factually who our enemy is.....and I blame liberal socialists for minimalizing the problem rather than confronting it head on. Is this the "hope & change" that the libs were pushing for!!! o_O

And how many times has this happened in the 45 states that allow open carry?
I don't know. Given the relatively few number of people who actually open carry (as opposed to conceal carry), I doubt it has happened much. Especially since there are relatively few mass shootings, no matter what the media may insinuate.

However, it would be the most reasonable thing for a spree shooter to do. They want to kill as many as possible before being stopped, so it stands to reason is that they would focus on the obvious threats first.

Do you have any statistics?

The Paris Prosecutor just stated that these terrorists each had a manual button to push in order to blow themselves up. A well placed round in the head could have stopped these morons from igniting.
