Always the first to fall in an invasion.

They just surrender all the time. It's what they do. Honestly though, maybe the French do need a good culling.

This invasion can never be a good thing, not even for muslims. It's going to fail, as all THEIR conquests do, but not without leaving a bit of themselves. Problem with islam is that there's NO SUCH THING as just a bit of it. It's the whole fucked up ideology or death. THEY will have to defeat themselves in the end... The French don't deserve this - they are perfectly rude, smelly-ass, idiosyncratic people, universally hated across Europe, except for all the folks who love them for being themselves. You know? They don't need to be wiped out!

The left will say this is just fake, then cover their eyes and yell "racist, xenophobe, bigot...." if you try to show them more examples.

There is someone in the twatter comments claiming there are no such things as no go zones in large French cities.
[–] ferfrendongles 0 points 1 point 1 point (+1|-0) ago
I bet it was just those cops. They were probably raping a muslim baby, as whites do, and a crowd of god damned heroes showed them the door. That's toootally more believable than the most hateful people in the world being hateful. Totally. I am so progressive and smart: All you dummies are so racist. Did you see where I used a colon, there? That means I'm better than you.
(shudder I think they really think that way, it's just that they use different words.)

When I was working in France, I noted how many of the police in Paris carried HKs and similar military rifles. But, my French coworkers commented that they would never ever fire them ... they were just for show.
The issue being : the French court systems and laws are so pathetic that officers have no protection. Killing someone in the line of duty is often career ending ... even if the officer did everything right. Further, the courts would look at manslaughter charges if they thought they could make something stick.
So, the officers will only use their guns if their lives are in imminent danger. If they can run / drive away they will do so first. The French police will not protect you. They will run and leave you to be robbed / raped / murdered.
So .. the next time your liberal friends say: "You don't need guns, the police will project you." Please show them this video and explain how there is a correlation between disarming the honest law abiding citizens and neutering the police force. France is just the extreme example but other European states have made similar strides to neuter their police forces.
By the numbers: On average, each year there are more police involved shooting deaths in a single city - Chicago vs in the whole country of France.

I mean.. Isn't that what a police officer's gun should be? A last resort?
I get what you're saying, and the whole situation is fucked, but, I just think you went a little too far, there.

It's an overall chilling effect on the French officers that makes them look to protect their own livelihood before they protect the general public.

It's only because they didn't use the diversity police cars

France has been lost before, and then a Charles Martel bursts into the scene from no where.

No they wouldn't, because he won't come up until the French people are ready to go ZFG.
[–] dontmindthemess 0 points 1 point 1 point (+1|-0) ago
He won't be coming from Germany or Sweden. With any luck, he'll be Czech or Polish.
