Well at least it wasn`t a damn gun !

A police raid in the Paris suburb commune of Magnanville has ended with the death of a hostage taker, who fatally stabbed a police officer near his house and then killed his wife. Reports claim the man was shouting Islamist slogans during the attack.

RAID special forces raided the premises and shot the stabber dead, Francetv info has reported, citing a French Interior Ministry spokesman. The officers discovered the body of a woman in the house and rescued a 3-year old boy.
The attacker shouted “Allah Akbar,” Le Parisien cited witnesses as saying.
Unconfirmed reports have emerged suggesting that the attacker might have links to Islamic State (IS, ISIS/ISIL).

They use religion as an excuse. Jealousy is the real reason they do what they do.

jealous of America I'll buy but I doubt he was jealous of his targets. regardless of what was going on in his mind Muslims around the globe celebrate this or they stand up and claim to be peaceful while denying the truth of their philosophy. we would do well to remember that the Qur'an explicitly approves lying to infidels, so what they claim on media outlets is just the message. Muslims claiming that it is a religion of peace are just as misleading as self proclaiming Christiian churches that spew hate. neither accurately reflects the philosophy.

People seem to cherish life less than they used to. Life is amazing and precious. It cant be brought back or replaced, yet more and more people seem to just devalue life with a wave of their hand these days.

Until we as a society make a concerted effort to value life and those around us, these attacks will never stop.


And when I say 'value life' what I mean is...
- stop having kids without a sound plan to care for them. It is irresponsible and immoral.
- stop using guns as a way to defend one's respect/turf/corner/block/girl. Walk the 17 away.
- teach kids and families to appreciate life instead thru inclusion and community support.
- stop killing our own citizens.
- stop occupying countries and killing others.


I dont expect any of this to change, and likewise, I dont expect mass attacks to end. It is a depressing reality that must be accepted.
