The acid attacks will continue until they start stopping and searching everyone carry any type of package. We need to start executing the terrorists and burying them in pig lined caskets or in caskets with dead pigs.
This happened a week before in Marseille to 4 American girls from Boston College, but it was just a mentally unstable woman … moving right along. The nice Catholic girls who got sprayed with acid prayed for her much deserved healing (I would “pray” for her too if it didn’t sound so contrived) … . Thankfully no one lost their sight or was seriously disfigured, or maybe the poor woman wouldn’t get any prayers from that crowd … Some commenters wonder why the paper doesn’t mention the name of the attacker …
