A couple who were found with a rocket launcher and an AK-47 assault rife in their vehicle during a routine traffic stop, have been arrested by police in southern France.

The pair, in their twenties, who have not been named, were picked up in Port-de-Bouc, near Marseille.


quote:

Their arrests came as five people were questioned by police in Paris, following the discovery of a primed bomb at an apartment bloc in Paris.

The men in their thirties, were reportedly known to authorities and one is on an intelligence services list of "radicalised" people, which features the names of potential Islamist militants.


nothing to see here

eta are rocket launcher silencers banned in france?

its not an exaggeration to say: France is literally gone. Taken over by Islam.

As a frequent flyer, this scares the shite out of me. Someone sitting in a pickup at the end of the runway taking down the biggest plane he can find during takeoff.

Isn't France a gun free and RPG free zone?

Rocket launcher =/= anti air.

I'd bet dollars to donuts it's a unguided dumb rocket like an rpg meant for static or ground targets. Not aircraft.

France really needs to outlaw rocket launchers before someone gets hurt.

They probably just need more signs telling people that France is a rocket launcher and Kalashnikov free country.

yep, wife wanted to go there last fall and told her that wasn't happening any time soon. oddly enough, shortly after we planned our trip to a more stable location, the attack in Nice happened. France is fricked.

Since January of 2015, they've had 36 separate terrorist incidents in France. But we should totally open up our country to more refugees like France did.

Although I may agree with the overall sentiment that we don't need to open our doors to refugees, France is not "literally gone." I just got back from a week in Bordeaux, and it was an incredible experience. I had zero issues whatsoever, and I walked pretty much everywhere in the city and used the tram every day to get to and from work. I felt more safe there than I ever have when walking in New Orleans.

dude, funniest thing I've read all day.

When I heard him say that shite earlier, I almost fell out in my office in laughter.
I'm surprised he didn't burst into flames when the word "Heaven" came out of his mouth.
