If these jihadis couldn’t have guns legally, they would get them illegally, but this shows the abject failure of the French state to keep control of this problem, which, of course, they have brought upon themselves by pursuing policies of unrestricted Muslim immigration combined with no demands for assimilation.
“France allows 100 terror suspects to own firearms: Authorities admit shocking security blunder two weeks after known gun enthusiast attacked police in Paris,” by Jay Akbar, Mailonline, July 6, 2017 (thanks to Blazing Cat Fur):
Some 100 terror suspects legally own firearms in France, Interior Minister Gerard Collomb has said.
His announcement comes two weeks after a known gun enthusiast rammed a car filled with weapons and gas canisters into a police van on the Champs-Elysees in Paris.
Jihadist Adam Djaziri was the only one killed but the attack raised questions over how the 31-year-old legally possessed firearms despite being flagged as a potential radical Islamist two years ago.

In an interview with Le Figaro newspaper two days after the June 19 incident, Collomb said he had asked for a probe into similar cases.
During a Senate hearing on a proposed new anti-terrorism law, Collomb said they ‘identified about 100’ individuals who, like Djaziri, were registered gun owners despite being on a watchlist for extremism.
He said: ‘The person who wanted to commit that attack was on file and, at the same time, was the legal owner of firearms. This is a sign of disfunction.’ [sic]…

The July 14 Bastille Day will soon be here with more jihad attacks. The French police must be getting grey hairs thinking about it.
Lucia Bartoli says
The police should call in “sick” that day.
This is, by the way, just the beginning of Macron’s “legacy.” Lots more stupidity to came. Ahhh yes–the French Obama–now that IS a curse!!

If the police do that, they will be leaving the French people even more undefended.

France capitulation to fascists. History repeats itself
Sam says
Yes. I am 66 years old and I am still amazed to confirm how true it is: “History repeats itself”
Enoch was right says
meanwhile a true Frenchman is not permitted to own weapons to defend himself or his family from the invaders …. it’s as though the governments there want their citizens to be raped, robbed, and blown up by jihadis.
Paul N Silas says
We got more than 100 gun owners attending our church. Maybe that will work in France, the surrender capital of the world, but not in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, etc.
Of course, within a generation France’s nukes will be in the hands of these monsters, so hold on boys and girls for some real fireworks.

Barn door…meet France!

France allows 100 jihad terror suspects to own firearms
………………..
And this in a nation where owning guns is extremely difficult. Suicidal madness.

Thanks everyone for electing Donald J. Trump as our POTUS and thank God for whatever powers it took to create this man. These are the results of the Obamas and Clintons of politics that we have at least blunted for now in the US.
Per DJT today: ” Does the west have the will to survive”? “Do we have values necessary to do what ever it takes”? Americans do, at least 100 million if not more. France? I really do wonder, WTF??
