Three stabbed to death in Nice

The BBC website uses the word 'Islamist' in the headline, since that's how Macron described it.

You don't know the terrorists' motivation until the 7th paragraph, by the way.
Fox waits until paragraph 5: https://www.foxnews.com/world/france-knife-attack-church-terrorism-suspected
The NY Post puts it in paragraph 1 and adds "decapitated" in its headline: https://nypost.com/2020/10/29/woman-decapitated-as-knife-wielding-man-kills-three-in-french-church/

Now, George, be kind. It takes a lot of diligence to scoop your own front-page First Lady nudie art.

France needs tougher knife laws...

Yeah, it's a real shame they don't have semi-automatic weapons. Rather than just 3 dead they could have a Euro-Vegas to go along with their Euro-Disney.

@Doctor-Phibes Yeah, I knew that was the counter... For a conservative, I actually favor tougher gun laws. I think owning a gun should require a license similar to driving a car or operating other dangerous machinery....

Priest in France shot at church
A Greek Orthodox priest was shot at a church in Lyon, France, on Saturday, and authorities are searching for the attacker.
The reason for the shooting was unclear.
The 52-year-old priest was closing up his church at around 4 p.m. when he was approached by a man with a hunting rifle. The suspect fired more than one shot, hitting the priest in the abdomen. He was in serious condition.
Lyon Mayor Grégory Doucet said several hours after the shooting that the priest was in surgery and the investigation into the attack remained in the early stages.

I think I read where over 60% of French citizens now have a very dim view of Islam. OTOH, young men are still trying to leave the ME for whatever reasons, and immigrate to Europe.
Sooner or later, something is going to give.

Mainly economics I think.
I think that is the main reason people are willing to leave their homeland for an unknown place.
(Of course, there is smaller amount that leaves because of safety, abuse, etc., but the main reason in economy I believe)
