Second Deadly Shooting Rocks Paris
Daily Beast ^ | 1/8/2015 | Nico Hines

Posted on 01/08/2015 8:52:22 AM PST by mojito

Gunshots rang out in Paris this morning on a second day of deadly violence that has stunned the French capital. A policewoman died after being shot in the back less than 24 hours after a deadly terrorist attack on a satirical magazine.

French police and security officials, who are hunting two brothers they suspect of murdering 12 people in an assault on the Charlie Hebdo magazine, are searching for links between the two attacks. Officials described Thursday’s shooting as another terrorist attack....

Heavily armored commando units were deployed at the southern edge of Paris as a second major manhunt got underway on what was supposed to be an official day of mourning. Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve, who rushed out of an emergency cabinet meeting about the previous attack, arrived in the suburb of Malakoff to say that the gunman had escaped. Three armed killers are now at large.

Huge peaceful rallies held in memory of the 10 journalists and two police officers slain Wednesday gave way to sporadic outbursts of violence overnight. Three blank grenades were thrown at a mosque in Le Mans; shots were fired at a Muslim prayer hall in Port-la-Nouvelle; and an explosive device was detonated at a kebab shop near a mosque in Villefranche-sur-Saone. No one was injured in any of the apparent reprisal attacks.

Shortly after dawn, there was another outbreak of deadly force. One witness said the gunfire began after a traffic collision, which drew the attention of a nearby police officer. A street sweeper was caught in the crossfire as a gunman fired at the officer, fatally wounding her in the back. The second victim’s injuries were not thought to be life-threatening.

Officials have not released a description of the latest shooter

I have had the feeling for a long time that Western society has lost the will to survive, and I fear that the only thing that will revive it is loss of everything first. This could take another 50 years or more. It’s almost like mass hypnosis. We don’t even see reality anymore.

Back here in America, I’m carrying an extra magazine full of 10mm automatic. I’m quite sure that I won’t be laying on the ground begging for my life like that cheese eating surrender monkey if something like this ever happens in my vicinity.

I would say World War I is where Western Civ really shot itself in the foot and we are living with the consequences today. It was so unnecessary. It was basically a fight of the royal houses. I think WWI would have ended under negotiation by all side had the U.S. not entered the war and tipped the balance.

I think there will be some point where the people themselves, with or without saction by the "powers that be" in whatever country they live in, will take action themselves. Think of "Death Wish III" or "Outlaw Josey Wales" on steroids and en masse. It will not be pretty but if the leaders do not see the errors of their ways, it will be the only way Western Civ will survive.

You noticed that too? Go after cops. Several years ago the WH press Sec. alerted the ME to the existence of the cartoons and they should be insulted by them.

Disgusting comment. That MAN knew he had no gun, and still went to, and remained the scene to do whatever he possibly could to help. His city didn’t allow him to be armed. But its disgusting to act like he was some kind of coward. If he was like you said, he would have been blocks away, running nonstop.

I wish you were wrong, but is seems now that Europeans willing to fight back against the Orcs coming in from the South and the East, are vastly outnumbered by gutless Euro-weanies.

These Radical Muslims would do well to remember that White Europeans pretty much wrote the book on large scale killing.

If they didn't write the book, they refined it to a repeatable science.

I agree. The Anglo-Saxons have a history of taking a lot of $hit for a while, and then saying "That's enough!" and reacting very strongly. Just ask the Germans and the Japanese. Kipling said it in his poem "Et Dona Ferentes", e.g., the last verse:
Build on the flanks of Etna where the sullen smoke-puffs float
Or bathe in tropic waters where the lean fin dogs the boat
Cock the gun that is not loaded, cook the frozen dynamite
But oh, beware my Country, when my Country grows polite!
