    Hello,

    http://www.cbsnews.com/news/france-...rted-before-french-election-arrest-marseille/

    Once again, I would like to greet the army and the police of my country who do a wonderfull job to constantly prevent a bunch of traitors to spread terror.

    I don't know what would work in USA, but the arrest of terrorist was enabled because they were gathering explosives and guns, which means that gun controle work in that part of the world.
    By the way, each country is unique and it doesn't mean it would work in USA.

    Don't be fooled, it's pretty easy to get a gun in Europe in the black market.
    Explosives are a different story.
    The easiest way is to steal a truck and run a bunch of infidels over.

    Yes, but at the opposite of USA, owning a gun illegaly is a viable motive to arrest someone, especially when the intelligence service noticed they got radicalized. You can get an AK-47 for 500 euros, but you need connection to the black market and drug dealers. Furthermore, some drug dealers don't like terrorist because they cause some trouble for the business.
    The owning of a truck is strictly watched. More and more public places are fitted to prevent that kind of accident to happen again. What happened in Nice was the result of a lot of mistakes because trucks should have been forbidden on that place.

    Funny isn't it - We can bomb people from 100's of miles away using state of the art weaponry and yet we still sh!t ourselves when a they drive a car or truck at us.

    I remember the days when we used to get nail bombs in cars - Trying running away from one of those bad boys!

    From the link:

    "He was then shot dead by security forces."

    It was reported on the BBC tv news last night there are 15,000 suspected terrorists being monitored in France. So - 1 down, 14,999 to go? And here's the thing - if they're only 'shot dead' after they kill someone, that must mean there will be at least 14,999 civilian casualties? If any European isn't worried about all this, they should be!

    Ah, France again.
    Well,you know what they say - you reap what you saw. If you let tons of barbarians in, don't be surprise when you turn into a barbaric country.

    And apparently this scum has tried to kill police on previous occasions, and threatened to try again. WTF was he doing out on the effing streets then? See what I mean about the West being stupid, and for that reason it's going to be a walk in the park for radical Islam? Hold on to your hats, it's gonna be a long war!
