    It's not that we're beating up on a country that is dealing with crisis, but rather the regulations, protocol and laws that allowed it to occur.
    This is going to happen regularly, so we may as well take note and prepare.
    Who's standing forward, to take action in an attempt to stop the surprise violence?

    I just pray for the victims and their families. I think these are the times when  we throw political correctness out the window, and do something. Obama won't! Oh how I long for the days of Ronnie!

    Yeah, let's beat up on a country that just suffered a terrible terrorist attack. 

    That's 35 hour workweek.   But on average:

    Too soon?

    Did I say that? I just have a strong belief that Reagan wouldn't stand by and let these things  happen, with no response.

    Iran does, but the US Administration made a sweet deal with Iran recently. So the US is just fine. No worries.  :s

    Had Dr. Carson been one of those hostages, those lousy terrorists wouldn't have stood a chance!

    Guns are banned in France, @Sardonicus. Citizens are UNarmed, as are a majority of the police.. I assumed you were aware of that.
    One reason for the massive carnage, no one could defend themselves or fire back at the criminals. 
    Thankfully that is not the case in America.

    Here, Here Brother.  He and Margaret Thatcher wouldn't stand for this sh!t.  I can't wait to see what kind of crap the Donald has to say about this, who is over the top.

    And yes thoughts and prayers to those in Paris.

    As a transplanted mild mannered Canadian, I want to go kill some terrorists.  I can only imagine how frustrated our military feels being largely sidelined.  

    Maybe I don't have a grasp on things, but I think it's time that we stop handcuffing our military, and unleash holy hell on these animals.

    @Little_Steven,  I appreciated the facetiousness all day long my friend.  If we as a people don't unite, recognize and appreciate the nature of this new, religious threat, we'll fail sooner.  Also acknowledge we've expended the typical time of a democracy.  Still, we must fight those who define us as infidels.

    We've already done the 'unleashing' thing.

    Don't worry, Geraldo Rivera is on the story! He just advised his daughter, who is in Paris, to stay inside & keep her cell phone charged! Brilliant!

    You said you longed for the days of Ronnie, who approved the sales of weapons to terrorists in the Iran-Contra Scandal. It was too funny not to mention, even though I knew what you were trying to say. I don't really get why you think a dead guy would do more than the guy who has approved the killing of terrorists almost daily(drones) and just killed one of the biggest mouthpieces ISIS had. Especially since this same dead guy did SO much after the Marine Barracks bombing in 83.

    We were selling missiles to them in the 80s. We've been just fine since. Hurr Durr.

    They say there's 1.2 billion Muslims in the country with 15-25 percent of them being radical. That's a lot more incidents coming to the West.

    Wow.....I hate to get political on this forum as I like it very much and feel that everyone is entitled to their opinion.  But blood is blood and families are families,  perhaps it's because my son came to me asking about this that has thrown me off of my conservative views,,,,but a life is a life and a cause is a cause,  this is unwarranted, ungodly and unacceptable.  We need to stand up and take the fight to them so that it never ends up here on our soil. Or anyone else's.  Bastards....

    Regardless of where you are politically, dirt bags need to be dealt with.  I don't proclaim to know the surgical strikes and infiltration/diplomatic inroads we can make but it's Friday.  While there are surgical options you do have a hammer.  So here is an over-the-top option: ( Glass parking lots make for easy assessment :)  )  

    Please take with a few grains of salt-but the west has got to choke them out.  

    Off soap-box for now.
