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. |

TO REMEMBER |
| Before a standing army can rule, the people must be disarmed; as they are in almost every kingdom of Europe. The supreme power in America cannot enforce unjust laws by the sword; because the whole body of the people are armed, and constitute a force superior to any bands of regular troops that can be, on any pretense, raised in the United States. — Noah Webster in "An Examination into the Leading Principles of the Federal Constitution," 1787, in Paul Ford, ed., Pamphlets on the Constitution of the United States, at p. 56 (New York, 1888). |
