It is absolutely awful. I was impressed at how quickly the French Police were at every scene and dealing with things. I cannot understand the killing mentality. Guns should be banned full stop.
I didn't see Cameron's speech - good or not good? I'll check it out.
I lived in France for a few months once and I loved the way complete strangers would be kind to you. One of the phrases I liked most that they used, if you were going to do something difficult was "Courage". Have courage. Outrageous attacking innocent peaceful people.

Cameron's speech is alright, but the thing that bothered me was that he said that a British attack was highly likely. I guess we were going to expect that anyway
