A short video from Paul Joseph Watson:
Josette Place, a pensioner and member of the village's events committee, told AFP: 'This wasn't a fight, it was an attack'.Armed with knives and blocks of concrete, 'they came with the intention to kill', she said of the attackers.According to prosecutors, around 10 young people tried to enter Crepol village dance hall on Saturday night. One stabbed a guard who stood in their way.Guests at the dance rushed to help and a fight ensued outside the building during which Thomas was fatally stabbed.
Another article mentions that as many as 30 "young people" may have been involved in the attack on the village of 600 inhabitants and used the Arabic slur, "gwer", to refer to white people. But the problem isn't the stabbing of white people by Muslims, but that white people are noticing that the attackers were Muslim (and anyone noticing is, of course, part of the "far right"). The Telegraph really takes the cake in virtue signaling, though, with this headline: "‘Bloodbath’ at French village fete as youths from deprived suburb kill 16-year-old." Although perhaps the editor was just trying to quietly communicate who were the perpetrators, since the article doesn't say anything further.
Certainly not a hate motivated crime.
ReplyDeleteFrance, like all of Europe, is a very different place from America; that said, it's becoming necessary to always be armed and in possession of the necessary skills, no matter where one is or in what activity one may be engaged. Americans may be only slightly ahead of the curve on that, but I suppose whomever in Europe winds up surviving may figure it out on their own.
ReplyDeleteEven more important than being armed is the willingness to use violence when necessary for self-defense.
