It does seem like a crappy place by western standards.
They seem to be unstable from what I've seen.
The only good things I've seen in France was the Roland Garros tennis and also Superman II when Superman broke the Eiffel Tower.
When Trump gave his speech at the NRA convention, he claimed that if the French had armed civilians, they would have stopped the 2015 terrorist attack, that killed many people. Trump mimicked the shooting of guns, to illustrate his words. He seems to be claiming that just one gun in the hands of a civilian, would be enough to disarm a group of hard, trained terrorists. Apparently, those at the convention ate this up, with roars of approval.
The President and the Prime Minister of France at the time of the attacks, said that his words were "shameful" and "indecent and incompetent". The French Foreign Ministry called for the memory of the victims to be respected, which Trump certainly did not do.
If one of our strongest allies is turned against us, by this unhinged demagogue, what future do we have in our worldwide efforts at diplomacy, without which no nation can survive?
It's been my observation that Trump struggles with knowing how to recognize boundaries. He'll be going along making good (or at least defensible) points, getting some applause and approval, and then he gets amped up and just dives head first over the line of propriety. He reminds me of my child with ADHD. He just doesn't know when to stop. His mouth is his own worst enemy.

That's the big worry. They have already thrown the democratic process out the window and opted for authoritarianism.
When Trump goes down in flames, as all narcissistic psychopaths ultimately do, they will be left in the lurch walking around with their guns looking for a fight.
That's the fear. Forget about banning firearms.
Arm yourself against them.
"That's the big worry. They have already thrown the democratic process out the window and opted for authoritarianism.'
Do you my signing MORE Executive orders/memorandums then ANY president in history, like Obama.
Or how about the sneaky way the dem passed O Care?
How about Obama was overturned MORE times by the coutes then any other Present in out history, several by a 9 to 0 vote, because of his "authoritarianism."?
How about the OVER 240 bills the House Passed and the DEMs in the Senate stuck them in a draw.
As usual a dems whine about what Trump is doing yet CHEERED when Obam and the dems DID much WORSE then what is Trump and the repups are doing now.

Sounds more like it’s liberal snowflakes that are offended . Especially rich celebrities that have their own armed guards if they don’t own guns themselves .
