RE: Automatic gunfire in Paris 9PM Fri
What do we KNOW
120 dead, hundreds wounded
8 attackers all dead
7 were suicide bombers who blew themselves up
1 was shot dead by police
6 locations were attacked
football stadium
rock concert
diners and bars
Attackers were shouting about Syria
France closed its borders last night, may be reopen this morning
POINTS OF NOTE
President Hollande was at stadium and was whisked away to safety,
Even after Charley Hebdo massacre the authorities STILL cannot protect the public.
All Western leaders expressed outrage sadness and solidarity with France last night, nothing was heard from Muslim countries before I went to bed at 1AM
WHAT CAN WE DO
First and foremost stop thinking it can not and will not happen to you, it can and it may well happen. We must stop viewing these attacks with a detached viewpoint.
Look its a simple fact cities are more dangerous than other places anyway because cities attract every society's nutters and losers and parasites BUT Cities ARE getting more dangerous as huge numbers of migrants, foreign criminals, extremists, hate mongers and illegal immigrants move to cities from North Africa, Middle east and Asia minor. EG Malmo has gone from a quiet distant backwater to the rape capital of Europe in under 4 years thanks to their open border welcome to everyone. Extremists flock to cities and places like transport hubs to carry out their attacks. The Israelis, Lebanese and UN reckon a MINIMUM of 2% of the 1 million migrants pouring into Europe are Islamic terrorists.
We can respond by (A) not living in cities (B) Not visiting cities © If we live in cities stay away from large public venues, transit hubs and NEVER use public transport, A very sad fact is the MORE diverse your city is the more dangerous it is. EG the number of Jewish people leaving France has increased in the last few years because of the amount of attacks on jews has increased with the rise in the number of Muslims moving into the country. (D) Campaigning for the right (if you believe in it) for law abiding citizens to be armed legally for self defence (E) Avoid unnecessary risk such as doing as much online shopping as you can to avoid having to visit high risk malls ,don't go to 'first night events' like the launch of a new movie of computer game, go after the public clamour has passed, don't send your kids to universities in large cities but if you must train them to react if a situation develops ***
*** Turns out in Paris last night the gun men at the theatre ordered everyone to lay on the floor, they complied, then the gunmen opened fire slaying them where they lay.
WHAT CAN OUR GOVERNMENTS DO
They COULD do a lot, they WILL do very little, except to ensure the iron curtain of security and themselves is improved, they will not address the unavoidable issues involving having large Muslim communities in Europe, they are more likely to clamp down hard on the public at large if they dare respond to the muslim community with violence, than deal with the Muslim community itself, they will not let us protect ourselves whilst their own security is assured.
Very welcome any comments on how we can best advise Urban preppers to respond to this latest outrage
128 dead 99 critical now.
