One of the hostages, possibly a nun, is now clinging to life. Such courage it takes to attack a little child or an old man.

I'm sorry the perps were shot. They deserved to be hanged, drawn and quartered in the square in front of Notre Dame.
Killing an old man and an unarmed nun. How brave. They probably spent the morning abusing puppies.
My youngest wants to go on a school trip to France next year. I'm seriously reconsidering allowing that. France is starting to resemble Palestine.
President Hollande said back in November that France is at war with ISIS. No place is guaranteed safe these days, but France does seem to me to be under attack. 'France is at war,' Francois Hollande says - CNN.com
And the Democrats didn't mention ISIS once last night at the convention because that's too "scary".
The worst part is that one of the attackers had an ankle bracelet to monitor his movement because he was stopped last year trying to join ISIS in Syria. He was allowed non-monitored movement for 4 hours a day. Want to take a guess when he attacked the church?
Perhaps I'm mistaken, but I think people want to hear what the Party has to say about terrorism.

I had to read that twice. The French really are something. Aren't they?

According to the Daily Mail:
One, who lived close to the church, is said to have left for Syria in 2015 to try and join ISIS, but he was arrested in Turkey.
He was jailed for terrorist offences following a short trial in France, before being released on March 2 this year. Bail conditions included returning to live with his parents, wearing an electronic tag, and reporting to his local police station. Neither of the Saint-Etienne-du-Rouvray attackers have yet been named.
French security services have been regularly criticised for the way they allow known terrorists their freedom after being found guilty of crimes.

My impersonation of iamyoda: You might be taking unnecessary risks, I would say....For your own sake, please don't attempt to draw one, comically.Anyone else notice that minarets look like the serious end of a wasp?
The French would pander to malignant cancer.
How can you talk about terrorism without identifying the terrorists?
Perhaps I'm mistaken, but I think people want to hear what the Party has to say about terrorism.
61 speeches yesterday, nary one mention of ISIS.
