Paris Attacks

[Fmr President & Senator Polnut]

Christ. I know all of these areas do well, just heartbreaking.

[Fmr President & Senator Polnut]

I think France is overreacting, using its power disproportionally. They should meet the perpetrators halfway in their demands. Time for the US to pressure islamophobic France to do so.


Oh wait. Nobody says this if the victims are non-Jews.

And you're being a **** at this point, why?

Anyway, I think people need to not rely on Twitter for their information.

[Fmr President & Senator Polnut]

Hollande reportedly to hospital for stroke.

Good grief...

This is why you don't rely on Twitter etc

[Fmr President & Senator Polnut]

Does the superstition behind Friday the 13th exist in France as well? I just thought of that when I looked at the date

It indeed does, and, well, I don't if those terrorists were f**king sarcastic guys, but well, it also was the 'global day of niceness' today...

France is where it started.

[Fmr President & Senator Polnut]

First off, what happened in France today is absolutely awful, and my condolences and prayers go to the victims, their relatives, and those close to them.

Second off, it is absolutely integral that we do not derive the wrong lessons from this tragedy. It would be wrong to blame or retaliate on refugees (as, unfortunately, might be happening in Calais, in what -- if it is happening -- is just as deplorable an attack as the one that happened in Paris), many of whom are running to escape this very sort of terror, and it would be wrong to blame or retaliate on Western Muslims as a whole, who, as a bloc, absolutely do not condone this sort of violence. At the same time, it would be wrong to forget who is responsible (terrorist groups of Muslim Middle Eastern origin), and it would be wrong to let them and their friends go unpunished for over 100 deaths.

Last off, I hate to agree with Donald Trump on anything at all, and now is probably the wrong time. Nevertheless, it must be said that if the French government took the first word of Liberté, egalité, fraternité more seriously, 4 people might not have murdered 80.

That is all.

Get stuffed, you little creep.

There's anything wrong with what he said.

You read the last paragraph? And you've read Trump's tweet?

[Fmr President & Senator Polnut]

I should have put the last paragraph in bold. But it still stands, an armed populace is no insurance against these acts. None.

[Fmr President & Senator Polnut]

I just learned someone that I spent time with during my last trip to Paris and kept in touch with was one of the victims and he was in the bar where we would all go... Ugh.
