Video: Club-wielding migrants attacking French citizen. Luckily for him, he was a plainclothes police officer, and therefore armed.
Europeans should be allowed to carry weapons to defend themselves.
After the horrible jihad attack in Paris on November 13, 2015, in which more than a hundred people were killed, Donald J. Trump – the future president of the USA – said:
“You can say what you want, but our people had guns, if they were allowed to carry it would’ve been a much, much different situation.”
And of course, Trump was right. To bloodthirsty jihadis, Europe is a heavenly slaughterhouse full of unarmed infidels. At the music club Bataclan in Paris, people had to watch their friends and partners suffer unspeakable horrors. The jihadis tortured people with knives, men and women had their genitals stabbed, and some victims had their bellies cut open and their intestines pulled out before they were executed. The unarmed citizens were powerless against the jihadis.
During the jihad attack on the Westgate shopping mall in Nairobi in 2013, the jihadis “removed balls, eyes, ears, nose. They get your hand and sharpen it like a pencil then they tell you to write your name with the blood. They drive knives inside a child’s body.” Interpol Secretary General Ronald Noble warned after the attack:
“Societies have to think about how they’re going to approach the problem. One is to say we want an armed citizenry; you can see the reason for that.”
Armed citizens in Europe?
Here is what the head of the Swiss army, Lieutenant-General André Blattmann, thinks:
“The threat of terror is rising, hybrid wars are being fought around the globe … migration flows of displaced persons and refugees have assumed unforeseen dimensions,” Blattmann says as he advises people to arm themselves: “those not already armed as part of the Swiss Army reserve [should] take steps to arm themselves.”
After a string of terror attacks during the summer of 2016, Czech president Miloš Zeman said:
“I really think that citizens should arm themselves against terrorists. And I honestly admit that I changed my mind, because previously I was against [citizens] having too many weapons. After these attacks, I don’t think so [anymore]”.
Zeman points to Israel’s gun laws as an example. Being surrounded by Islamic countries and being Jewish, Israel has more experience with fighting Islamic terrorism than any other country. One successful lifesaving strategy is to allow trained citizens to carry firearms. For this reason, terror attacks are regularly stopped by civilians before too many innocents are hurt. Compared with Denmark, which has some of the toughest laws on weapons (you are not even allowed to own a pepper spray), Israel has three times fewer deadly accidents with firearms. And three times fewer gun related deaths than France, Finland and Austria – all countries where civilians are not allowed to carry in public.
We should start by allowing our officers and soldiers to bear their guns in their free time. They are professionals, and by allowing them to be armed when off duty, we would instantly multiply our societies’ protective force.
But even that will not be enough. The Islamic State has just issued a new order: faithful Muslims must attack the infidels in the only place where all families should feel safe – in our own homes. The police cannot be everywhere, and people must be able to stand their ground.
The Europeans need a Second Amendment. The only question is, how many innocent unarmed people will be slaughtered before lawmakers will be forced to allow people to defend themselves against this deadly menace that has been allowed into our countries by ignorant politicians, the anti-national EU, and the Islamic-dominated UN, all aided by a cowardly press that so willingly hid the inconvenient truths until it was too late?

Tom says
An unarmed population is a victim of political tyranny as well as a victim waiting to be slaughtered.
Europeans will start arming themselves no matter what the politicians say.
Custos Custodum says
Precisely:
Much more insidious is what disarming the people does to the mind and personality of most individuals. They become SERFS, for ever looking for protection from a distant government, and avoiding giving any “offence” to their “betters.” This effect, of course, is entirely intentional.
john spielman says
France needs the ARMY and Marie Le Pen to arrest and deport these savages back to their family’s original CRAPISTANS
Anne Smith says
The French have only themselves to blame – now they have voted in Macron they are doomed. Bad luck for the sensible ones who voted for Le Pen.
Guest says
Yes
Florian Euring says
Europe need a first amendment to. A friend of mine, a journalist, who is very active in the German counterjihad movement and had to pay 20.000€ in fines during the recent years just for telling the truth about Islam. This has nothing to do with freedom of speech, with a constitutional state and the Rule of Law. At the same time calling the Catholic Church “Kinderfickersekte” (a sect of child f**ers) was considered free speech by a German court. This is not jurisdiction but mere despotism and nothing else.
Alexander says
True. And now the censorship is coming: Heiko Maas’s law. It will not change anything for one cannot censor the truth.
Carolyne says
I can’t understand how the citizenry of Western Europe has allowed themselves to be gagged.
Are they sheep? Our forefathers could see the danger in a dictatorial government so they gave us the right to not only talk about it, but have the means to defend ourselves against it. In Western Europe you can’t even talk about it without bringing the full force of the law down on your head, while barbarians kill innocents.

Like the saying goes: When seconds count, the police are only minutes away.
RonaldB says
Actually, Israel has some very restrictive gun laws:
“Permits are given only for personal use, not for business in the firearms sale while holders for self-defense purposes may own only one handgun, and are given a lifetime supply of 50 cartridges to take home.”
My opinion is that the gun restrictions implemented by the left are specifically designed to make the population defenseless against random violence and organized gangs. It is a mechanism to dissolve the bonds of culture and to justify a totalitarian government taking complete charge. Gun control is part of the leftist religion, no longer needing empirical justification, but instead being an article of unchallenged faith.
The veneer of concern for victims of jihadist, black, and criminal violence becomes thinner and thinner in the statements of western leaders. They say what they have to say to avoid revealing too openly that they actually don’t care that much. They have to provide the lapdog press some kind of fig leaf.
Incidentally, don’t imagine that leftists won’t be arming themselves as well.

Bill says
I really do not care if the leftists wish to arm themselves. In the USA, the Second Amendment guarantees their right to do it. I wish more of them did, once having purchased the firearm and accepted the responsibility that goes with it, they might be better behaved at their numerous riots and protests. At a minimum, it might make them reflect more carefully on their God-given rights, the beauty of the Constitution’s design to protect them, and be less willing to throw their support behind any regime that would subordinate the rights of the individual to the government.
Tom S. says
ALL men are endowed with inalienable rights: LIFE, liberty, and pursuit of happiness. The 2nd amendment flows from this. It is not something Governments can bestow or take away. Europeans: Follow a higher law and arm yourselves.
Gen Jones says
Mr Sennels, are you writing these or just reposting from 10News?

KrazyKafir says
Only the dullest of mind. or the liberal mind, is too blind or stupid that it can’t foresee the colossal 5th column that the liberal elite have imported into Europe over that last 30 years will eventually start a civil war. There will be a move to have part of the host’s country carved out for an Islamic country. Anyone who doubts this does’t know history with examples like India and Serbia.
Savvy Kafir says
As a pistol-packing progressive, I have never understood the liberal community’s hysterical fear & hatred of weapons. The fact that even pepper spray is banned in many European countries shows how irrational that “thinking” is among the politically correct.
As World War III ramps up, and jihadi attacks become more & more frequent, European citizens will definitely need the right to go armed in public. As the saying goes, “When seconds count, the police are only minutes away!”.
Blangwort says
Though i disagree with your politics, your right to defend yourself from threats domestic and foreign is inviolate.
I also don’t understand why so many in the left fawn all over this extremist, intolerant, theocratically muddled excuse for a religion.
They claim to stand for women’s rights, yet Islam is against them.
They claim to stand for racial and religious equality, while Islam is racist and intolerant.
They claim to stand for sexual rights, while Islamic states murder homosexual men by throwing them off buildings.
I could go on like this.
If the Progressives truly followed through on what they claim, shouldn’t they have some very stark and terrible criticisms of Islam? Shouldn’t they want to keep Jihadis at bay every bit as much as a Nazi?
And yet, most do not. I don’t get it either.
Avi Green says
You’re absolutely correct. In the meantime, I believe all concerned European citizens who’re knowledgeable and can speak English well enough should be invited to testify before Congressional committees about the situation with Islamism in Europe, because Congress may be able to provide some positive influence. If Nigel Farage, for example, hasn’t visited the US to discuss these matters yet, he should. Anybody else want to ask their elected officials if they can work to arrange the special visits I recommend?
Zé says
There is a reason why Europe has nothing the sort of the second amendment.
Americans are used to depend on themselves, therefore having a gun is perfectly natural to most Americans.
Europeans, for historical and political reasons, some very old some more or less recent, are used to rely on government. Most Europeans cannot think about defending themselves.
My advice as an European to Americans is to never let your gun rights be diminished. If they are taken they will never be returned.
jewdog says
Quite right, Nicolai, and Europe also needs a First Amendment so that people feel free to criticize Islam without being hauled into court.
Savvy Kafir says
Agreed! The first amendment & second amendment go a very long way towards safeguarding American freedom, just as the Founding Fathers realized they would. But many of my fellow Lefties have lost sight of that simple, timeless reality.
Bill says
I would only add that once the Second Amendment goes, the guarantees of the First, Fourth and Fifth Amendments become toothless.
jewdog says
Yes, and the Lefties have lost sight of reality in general.
Raja says
Jewdog,
The Leftists have never been known for ANY wisdom.They only help themselves to get to power.to Aren’t they called idiots or considered to be one ?
Bill says
The European elites will never allow their citizens to be armed. Sad, but true. Right now, the best that the Europeans can do, and they should, is at least study hand-to-hand defensive techniques. Start training in small groups, friends and family. I suppose that is not outlawed yet. Learning to deflect a blow, strike well enough to permit an escape or disable an attacker, could all be useful some day.
I early on read the story about some man that was throwing bottles and chairs at the attackers. That man, whoever he is, is a fighter. He used the best weapons he had available to deter or slow up the attack. If had 10 more right with him, more death and maiming might have been prevented.
Savvy Kafir says
I agree that Europeans (and others) should get training in unarmed combat. Krav Maga is especially practical. But jiu-jitsu, Muay Thai, karate, etc. can also be effective, if you train seriously. Get fit. Train hard. Do some sparring, so that finding yourself in a fight doesn’t freak you out.
But Europeans should also start buying whatever guns are allowed in their countries — shotguns or whatever — and learn to use them. And carry whatever sort of knives are legal — and “tactical” pens, and small tactical lights with strobes — whatever they can get away with. And start demanding that politicians eliminate gun bans.
Europe is at war, and the enemy is targeting civilians. And the police cannot be everywhere at one.
Johan Elzinga says
I fail to understand how spreading guns amongst the population would make it any safer here. Please remember that a large part of our population are quite happy to use those guns for robbery and for terror. As most cities are now infested with quite radical terrorists, how would it help us if they own guns?
Bill says
Why do you fear the possession of firearms by law abiding citizens? Do you believe that their firearms will convert them to robbers? Do you fear your neighbors’ possession of carving knives?
Your criminals and robbers and terrorists always seem to get firearms despite all the laws on the books that make it illegal. Criminals tend not to obey laws, that is why we refer to them as criminals.
If you owned a firearm, trained to use it, understood that it is only a tool and that YOU are the weapon, you might just be able to defend yourself or your loved ones if attacked by a terrorist or a robber. There is no guaranty, but you least you have more options available if you are trying to survive.
Just submitting to be a compliant victim, of course, is another option.
Person with common sense in a gunless country says
If you’re implying muslims care in the least what your dumb laws say and aren’t mowing you down with AK-47s while your people can only criticize other victims for being islamophobic, then yes, it’s hard to understand.
How about read a little on the topic, at least, or use some common sense? Do you care about following laws? Does Ahmed Mohammad bin Terroristi?
http://crimeresearch.org/
Savvy Kafir says
In the U.S., gun crime rates are higher in cities with strict gun bans (Chicago, D.C., etc.), and lowest in states with freer access to guns and more concealed carry permits. It has been that way for decades. In Switzerland, many homes contain fully-automatic assault rifles, yet the gun crime rate is very low.
Raja says
Savvy, Most everyone will agree to your stats. I am all for self defense. Why don’t you provide the data to back your claim? Shouldn’t carrying weapons be considered RIGHT TO PROPERTY?
On the one hand you have evil politicians who want us humans dead on the alter of power on the other hand they don’t even give a fair chance to survive.
European democracy is still too wishy washy. The man on the streets is torn between( or eaten up) by Left, Islamist and so called liberals on one side and authorities on the other.
This paradox and nonsense MUST STOP
Arthur says
http://www.justfacts.com/guncontrol.asp
It takes very little effort with a search engine to find the statistics showing the relationship between violent crime and gun laws, although comparisons are very challenging because census methods vary across domains.
Although the UK has relatively low gun crime and murder rates compared to the US (US has 4X higher murder rate per capita), rates of assault, rape, and robbery are twice as high in the UK as the US. Overall, crime rate is 3X higher in the UK.
People think the murder rate is high in the US, but it is ranked 99th among countries at the source website linked below.

Larry says
The only thing that stops a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun. When one calls the police he is, in effect, calling a good guy with a gun. Problem is, most of the time, the cops get there in time only to clean up the mess. Who is the “first responder” in your life? You are.
The secular lefties do not believe in God or guns. But, I will bet, when a thug breaks into one if their houses to do them harm, they will do two things: Call someone with a gun and pray that someone gets there in time.
Savvy Kafir says
Larry — I’m a “secular lefty”, and I do “believe in” guns. (Although not God so much; you got me there.)
If a thug breaks into my house looking to do me harm, I won’t be praying for help. I’ll be too busy focusing on my sights & my trigger squeeze.
Larry says
Point taken. I stand corrected. I was speaking generally, and to be clear, I am a Reagan conservative. That is to say I lean Libertarian. I have no problem with your classic Liberal; my problem is with progressive/socialists who want to force everyone to live the way THEY think everyone should live.
Person with common sense in a gunless country says
Europeans are too arrogant and naive to do so, these cucks would rather be told what to do by the same governments inviting their murderers in than have some greater responsiblity over their own lives and actually read the literature on this topic, which shows no correlation whatsoever between tough gun-laws and crime, both in the US and abroad (see Mexico, Russia, Brazil, Burma x Thailand, Yemen and the mideast x Indonesia, etc)
Paul N Silas says
Dam right they do! Glock 19’s and 500 rds. of ammo for everyone!
A Mossberg 500 shotgun in every house, and a Ruger LCP .380 in every European Woman’s purse too! Watch the crime/rape rate go down
Europe also needs a Euro-NRA
Bill says
Only 500 rounds?
Joe says
The citizens would need the arms fare more to get rid of their traitorous politicians. Then they had to put in a government which doesn’t act like arrogant elites but servants to the people. First of all they would have to get rid of the muslims. If the muslims are gone, the criminals are caught and NOT released anymore. Then it will become safe again to walk the streets. But people should still be allowed to wear arms so it cannot happen again.
Smart guy says
The IRA smuggled guns into Ireland, they had so many there were hundreds of them in Barns still in their plastic wrappers. This was told to me by someone who lived in Ireland. The Muslims will be able to smuggle guns into England. They will be able to do this by using boats. England will have to defend the whole coastline. An impossible task. If they follow Sun Tsu the “General” or the brains behind their Jihad
is top secret. Their so called leaders will be expendable, they will be skilled in the art of deception. The failure of knives to inflict death to many failed. The death toll has been much higher when Jihadists have used automatic weapons, such as in Paris. The “Brains” behind the Jihad will be finding ways to smuggle arms into England. In the next attack if they are successful in smuggling arms into England you may be seeing them using the AK47, grenades and explosive suicide vests.
Ian says
The last thing we need are idiots from the US trying to turn the globe into mini versions of their sick gun-worshipping society!
Shone says
No, the last thing we want to see is the world caliphate. There is no peace with them. It is us or them. And when is that kind of time, it is far better to be armed and ready to use it against attackers, then to wait to be killed by a mad rats called muslims. They wanted a jihad, they live and die for it, so it is better to give them a jihad, with a bullets trough their heads. If we had MSM, SJW minds and agenda back in the forties, we would never, ever defeat Nazis. But, the Nazism is far more benign than rat plague called islam. And yes, this is going to be a war, but not like ordinary one. It will be a civil bloodshed, because they are within.
roger woodhouse says
You are the sick idiot.We are going to need to defend ourselves because our useless liberal governments wont.They will defend Islam before you and I.
.
Carolyne says
Ian needs to invite some barbarians to live with him. See how long he and his family last. But hide the knives.
Savvy Kafir says
Ian — We don’t “worship” guns in America; we see them as very useful tools when someone is trying to kill us or take away our essential liberties.
The idea that being able to defend yourself & your loved ones is “sick” is just bizarre. You’ve obviously drunk the Kool-Aid served by the PC, gun-hating political left. As a Lefty myself, I can assure you, you really don’t have to drink that stuff. It’s unnatural & unhealthy.
Those jihadis in London kept stabbing & slashing until good guys with guns arrived on the scene. If British citizens were allowed to own & carry guns, the attack might have been ended in eight seconds instead of eight minutes.
Carolyne says
What many Europeans don’t understand is that we in the US are self-reliant people who know we are responsible for ourselves and our families. We not only do not rely on our government to protect us in every event, but we don’t trust any government to be able to do so. Europeans are apparently worshipping their wishy-washy governments when they would do well to learn to defend themselves and not need a nanny to do it for them.
In fact, IMO, not being able or even interested in self-preservation is in itself sick. “I see you are a Muslim. Please kill me. Thank you.” That is sick.
Tom says
There is a saying:
Do what you have to to stay alive
Do what you have to in order to survive
For it is better to be tried by 12 of your peers
Than to be carried to burial by 6 of your friends.
Citizens of countries which ban weapons will find a way to protect themselves and their families and the consequences be damned.
James says
We absolutely have to be allowed to carry guns. In the UK, where it is illegal to do so. All Europeans should be allowed to, provided they are of good character. And the UK police should be armed with tasers, at the very least.
Carolyne says
I did note that the much vaunted unarmed London police had to call in their compatriots with GUNS to handle the situation.
Tom says
The peaceful days of the unarmed Bobby and citizen are gone. Both will have to armed in the future as the jihad terror attacks escalate.
somehistory says
May now says she is willing to change human rights laws in order to fight terrorism, to deport terrorists, to arrest even if not enough evidence to take to court.
How will these changes affect the non-terrorist citizens?
