Check out the firepower the cops found in the various raids cross the pond in recent months. I mean, if only radical Islamist had access to.... Grenades, full auto lmgs, full auto pdws, handguns and rifles out the arse. Rounds up to their eyeballs.

What's stopping them? Idk. Maybe waiting on orders. Maybe stashing them for later.

Ever stop and think terrorism. Root word, terror. What is going to cause the most terror? A drive by shooting yelling akbar? Or placing a nail bomb outside of a concert?

They want to inflict TERROR upon the civilians. Simply putting a slug through their ear isn't nearly as terrifying as a homemade bomb. Or a random truck hopping the curb.

Jesus squeesus you're dense.

Terror is the end goal of terrorism. Not implicitly death count.

I assume nothing. I can tell based on my own experience and the misconceptions you've freely offered.

That's a little disingenuous to what Orlando and Paris was, which are precisely the shootings I've been talking about.

If you're wanting to compare that to my experience in the region, yes, you can scratch that.

And they have found full auto lmgs, full auto pdws, handguns, rifles, grenades, explosives, etc at houses they've raided in recent months.

To say they are doing this because they can't get firepower is just awillfully ignorant thing to say.

I mean shite, they arrested a group recently that was armed to the teeth planning an attack during the French election.

The use of bombs and trucks isn't drawn from lack of firepower. But a very calculated decision to cause as much terror as possible. To show that you can be struck down any second of any day.

Thanks for your support.

Like I said, not trying to be a dick, but there it is.

Back to my original point that started this little tangent. The inability to obtain firearms is almost entirely irrelevant to the attack at the Louvre.

Body counts are often not their goal.

Fair enough. If that's the gist of it then I get the point.

I understand it, I just can't wrap my head around not wanting the highest body count. Maybe I'll never understand them tho. Just trying to converse and learn.

I know it's a bit morbid, but which do you think they'd prefer and why?

Killing 14 office workers with a rifle or beheading a uniformed member of the military in the middle of a busy street?

I am not sure if they attacking me because they didn't get the Trump reference, or maybe they are attacking me because it is a Trump reference. Either way they are remarkably blind when it comes to Dear Leader.

How can anti-gun nuts be so clueless? If you ban guns, then only criminals will have access to guns. Or do you actually think all these criminals are going through proper channels to procure firearms? Only pure ignorance can allow someone to think this would work.
