quote:

In the aftermath of the shooting, Emmanuel Macron, a centrist and one of France’s two leading candidates, offered a curious response, saying terrorism in the country was an “imponderable” threat that “will be a fact of daily life in the coming years.”

The claim was reported near the bottom of a New York Times write up on the attack, with the paper of record suggesting the response was evidence of Macron “stepp[ing] back from the moment.”

Probably not something a political candidate should admit to if he wants to get elected, but anyone can see that it's true. You'll never stop all of it without setting up a police state, and even that wouldn't completely stop it.

WMD's will be a thing, too. A lot of this stuff can be produced using off the shelf technology, or will be soon. Chemicals now, maybe nuclear and biological in the not too distant future. Hell, somebody may genetically engineer a virus in his garage lab that wipes out the human race.

The Lefty Frenchy speaks for his political fellow travelers all over the Globe.

Keep voting for the Democrats and other Leftists and this is undoubtedly true. He told us our future under Leftist rule and the words came out of his own mouth.

The Democrats will bring in so many Muslims to the USA that "terrorist attacks" will be a part of daily life and hardly newsworthy.

So Keep Voting Democrat, America!

We are almost there!

That probably gave Le Pen a few points.

"Terrorism is a fact of life, we'll have to live with it" sounds different coming from a fringe leftist than it does from someone more grounded in reality.

It sounds nonchalant because it probably is

La Pen should simply say "doesn't have to be" and drop the mic. Similar to trumps use of "wrong" during the presidential debates.

Terrorism has been a fact of daily life, long before 24 hours news and social media became prevalent.

Why do these liberals want this? Are they THAT scared of being called Islamophobic?

He is The French Obama, but without the Mom pants. His goal is to preside over an era of French Declinism. Marxist ideologues Only take countries in one direction.

Terrorism is an unfortunate byproduct of the real goal they have in mind


1.) Import thousands/millions of 3rd world folk who are not literate and will not contribute to the economy
2.) They rely on government welfare
3.) Macron and folk like him support state welfare
4.) Automatic votes

They should delay the vote. It's not fair to have the vote after a terrorist incident. It will incite too many racists to go out and vote for Le Pen.

Do you even MSNBC, bro? Trump caused that terror right before he collapsed the thriving Venezuelan economy.

Is this a joke? Just kick out all the Muslims

No Muslims = no terrorism

He is the candidate that married his school teacher who is two decades older than him?
