Shooting in Paris

A Quran was found in his car and a written note defending Isis as well.

Of course 'cultural sensitivity' plays a significant role. Just look at what happened in Rotherham.



This kind of attitude permeates throughout the E.U establishment. Along with the standard European liberal values that criminals are also victims and it's no surprise to see this kind of thing.

*Shakes head*

Yeah, that is the sort of thing I was worried about.

The Champs Elysees shooter fits a pattern of many extremists inspired by Islamic State in France in recent years: a violent, unstable criminal not known for any religious conviction.

Karim Cheurfi, 39, was described as an oddball by his neighbours in the multi-ethnic suburb of Chelles east of Paris, about a 30-minute train ride from the centre of the City of Light.

"Everyone knew him here," said one resident in the quiet area where Cheurfi lived with his mother. "It was someone who had lost all reason, who was psychologically very damaged," said the resident, asking not to be named.

Another local man, Salim, described him as "nuts" and someone never seen at the local mosque, while fellow resident Abdel said Cheurfi had been influenced by his repeated experiences in prison.

The author Peter Hitchens makes a reasonable argument that often mind altering drugs might be used in terrorism, http://hitchensblog.mailonsunday.co...-terror-attacks-but-no-one-wants-to-know.html

As a stoner, I have seen how philosophy students can be swayed into feeling and believing things when they are high, I would not be surprised if there is evidence that religious people can be made even more crazy under its influence. Tt is not something that we should outrule. (Disclosure: This does not mean that drugs = terrorism)
