Following the deaths of two French police officers during the January 7 Charlie Hebdo attack and another officer death during an attack the following day, French police are demanding more guns and guns that are more powerful.

Would be nice if the citizenry could also protect themselves.

Its a shame that people had to die in order for some stupid politicians to get that this would never and has never worked...

I think after Australia made their decision their crime rate also doubled or tripled and they soon realized that they had also made the same very poor decision to collect all the guns from the civilians...............jmho

Leave it to the French to be a day late and a dollar euro short. They must have forgotten their own revolution against their monarchy.

What a surprise socialist utopian policies leading to crime and civilians getting killed... who would have seen that coming.

if someone what to kill or commit a violent crime they don't need a gun to do it, if you take away guns, knives rule, take them away and the biggest stick rules.

... or bottles, or axes, or bows and arrows, or a rock, or a car.... let's face it anything can be used as a weapon. It has never been the tool but the hand that wields the tool that makes the difference. If a man's heart is evil he will find a way to injure another man. It is the good man who must stop the bad man from doing evil.

Until they get smart enough to use a two ton car. Can you imagine how many more people they can kill by plowing down the sidewalk, a play ground, or the ticket line outside a theater?

I thought the police in the police state had guns?  

 

The real question is why their uber, crime stopping gun control didn't stop those guys from getting guns.   

 

None of this makes any sense .... the bad guys can't get guns when you have gun control.  And the police should have machine guns to keep the rabble in line.  Somewhere, someone dropped the ball .... I mean I know its the French, but when you can't even figure out how to run a police state, which is easy (compared to a country where people can resist or vote against you or give you bad press etc)  its really and truly a lost cause.
