Shooting at French Satirical Magazine

You'd think they would have mobiles to check the news and then they would see where the police were going and then just move location accordingly... :confused:

FrenchTV just reported that the army asked all reporters to stop filming positions of any of their forces.

Had a brief look at the Daily Mail website for their report. That was a mistake. Comments section is open and already it's flooded with idiot armchair warriors and people spouting off about how they'd do things differently. Rage inducing.

The media in general needs to be reigned in and kept well away from these situations.

Agreed... But then they'll start moaning about not having the freedom to report on what they want.

I very much doubt those comments will be taken on board by the authorities, don't you think?.
 
I knew some Muslims, yes. These were the 'moderate' sorts that people always talk about, they liked football, didn't make a fuss about their religion and even tolerated my offers to get them bacon butties every other morning. They were good people and I have nothing against them.

However, the big wake up call for me came for me when we got into talking about serious matters and they started to say 'your people' and 'our people'. It was then I realised that even moderate Muslims didn't view themselves as being part of the British nation and that underneath their softly spoken words, they had a great deal of contempt for us.

Great article from Mark Steel about the absurdity of the calls for Muslims to condemn these attacks

It's a bit of a silly article really. He says Geordies weren't asked to apologise after what Raoul Moat did, but that's because he didn't do it in the name of Geordies or because he was a Georgie, he had a vendetta against the police. He says Christians weren't asked to apologise after what Anders Breivik did, and that's because he didn't do it in the name of Christianity, or any God.

I don't specifically think Muslims need to apologise for these attacks, but I agree with what Portillo says in the video posted above.
