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

There is clear evidence- blood sprayed instantaneously onto the sidewalk. The viewer doesn’t see the bleed out. What was hit isn’t completely clear. Looks like it was a head shot. Hoax? Hardly.

"Want to change Europe? The US should end NATO.

It will force them to reconsider their entire security and immigration structure.

NATO is a relic. We are chained by treaty to an unstable collection of 28 countries, big an small, that are sinking themselves. They will pull the USA down with them.

Yup. Is it any wonder to anyone, why much of Europe can "afford" all those socialist programs? Because they don't have to spend nearly as much on their national defense, so they get a false sense of how "cheap" their "free" this or that socialist programs are
Then, the idiots in this country point to Europe and say...but they have government run [insert social program] and they aren't in debt like we are.

We'll, we're not only paying for our national defense...we're subsidizing theirs to a substantial degree.

Applies to our Pacific allies as well.

It is not a “happy” poem. One that has been discarded, by many, and picked up by many who are evil.

But there is something to it. To believe that Christendom is dead, and will just fade away, is someone we have all been taught. The Christmas marches in Germany, the movements in Sweden and England, all hint to another side.

The pendulum swings both ways. We have traveled very, very far to the left. The swing back may be just as far. The extremes are not good for anyone. That is why the poem has stuck me. The Saxon is starting to hate. God help us.

In my copy of Kipling, the word is “Saxon”,not “English” and the title of the poem is “The Wrath of the Awakened Saxon” not “The Beginnings”

Bingo!

Latest report of a street sweeper shot in the face. Perp shooter reportedly had an M5 with a bulletproof vest and described as of African origin. Two people struggled with the perp before he got away. Not sure if this is the same incident where the female cop was shot, but I think it was.

I guess we need more #’s and pictures of pens. The ones yesterday didn’t seem to work. I’m for all that stuff, but that should only be the begging. It should be followed by futbol hooligans.

Witness account: “It didn’t look like a big gun because he held it with one hand.”

Dead cop was unarmed.

Just heard that it’s the cops option whether they are armed. Beyond foolish.

Making stuff up? No need to. the Frog cops don’t have guns. They respond on bikes. The hoodlums were known to be thugs. Everybody gets away after the shootings———Time to call in Inspector Clewsow-—

We have, sitting on the shelf, the proven industrial processes for genetic euthanasia. The hard decision is only to determine the feed stock for the factory.

Them or us?

The grenades and shots fired against Mosques suggest likely action on the part of the FSB or ISIS to create havoc in France, to encourage a war “between the classes,” the “poor immigrants beseiged because of their faith and a few bad apples” against a “racist white majority,” or from the Muslim non-Communist point of view: a religious war, though terrorists in Chechnya complain/clain that ISIS is a Russian controlled outfit to begin with.

It just seems unlikely to me that the very next day, in a country with such severe gun laws, that all of a sudden there is immediate reprisal with fake grenades and gun shots at random Mosques— and what kind of a person will fire at a random mosque? Aren’t they afraid they might hit kids? And even if they’re a sociopath, they ought to worry about how the leftist media will respond to it, thus ensuring that the Islamists gain even more protection.

" I think WWI would have ended under negotiation by all side had the U.S. not entered the war and tipped the balance."

Agreed, and would have prevented the seeds of WW2.

Very sad.

They don’t need compassion. They need honesty, brutal honesty. They all died because they were all unarmed. Why were they all unarmed? because they’re a nation of weak, toothless, clawless, cheese eating surrender monkeys.

All this nonsense from media and Limbaugh on radio today I heard claiming French police don’t carry firearms is false. The Brit police don’t carry, but that’s not all of them.
