The French are no more,or less, hoplophobic than most of Europe, (with the exception of the Swiss). And they're going to pay a high price for their phobia it seems. Jihadists aren't going to be content with this latest "toe-dip". And americans shouldn't feel immune.
With our borders as porus as cheese cloth we already have jihadists - and whatever weapons they chose - resident. But America is different from Europe.
Americans are armed. Even with the prevailing hoplophobic mania infecting society and government it won't take too many incidents in our public venues to recreate another "Pearl Harbor" attitude.
And, perhaps, this is just the action some are attempting to engineer. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
The supposed quietude of a good mans allures the ruffian; while on the other hand, arms like laws discourage and keep the invader and the plunderer in awe, and preserve order in the world as well as property. The same balance would be preserved were all the world destitute of arms, for all would be alike; but since some will not, others dare not lay them aside...Horrid mischief would ensue were one half the world deprived of the use of them... — Thomas Paine, I Writings of Thomas Paine at 56 (1894). |
