  1. He can’t have been in possession of an AK-47. It’s not possible. France has strict gun laws, and we all know that gun laws work, don’t they?

  2. @Softly Bob
    The UK has strict gun laws too, but the sad fact is that criminals, especially imported ones, can easily get these weapons if they have the right contacts and they often do. We are going to see a lot more of this sort of thing.

  3. In St. Anne’s in Nottingham, if you go to the right pub and speak to the right man you will get a Makarov 9mm semi-auto pistol and 50 rounds of ammo for £45.

  4. Perhaps if France had had the good sense to declare itself a gun free zone, then this wouldn’t have happened. Like that school and that cinema in the USA.

  5. Over the winter the heads of al Qaeda keep repeating that he was declaring war on France and the US, in the near future we will see if these are simple one off terror attacks or part of a campaign.
