that's what happens when citizens and police cannot carry guns it wasn't the government that got hurt it was their people they failed to protect, that's outrageous, and its insane for French president to sit there and say its not our fault its lack of human decency dear French government if you cannot protect your citizens as efficiently as they can protect themselves and their country by freely owning a gun then maybe you have a few choices to make welcome to real world there is no common decency every human being should have the right and the means to protect their life WHILE THE GOVERNMENT SUPPOSTED TO BE THERE TO HELP, I guess that's my two cents.
As far as trading wise I am sure we will see so volatility the question is whether every one will be selling EUR because france failed to protect itself or everyone will feel bad and buy in into last bear move for retracement or trend shift

lets just put it this way you come to US and start shooting you might shoot us you might kill a few of us but we fight back and we will track you down to the moon if we have to, btw the way my friend put this to my a while ago he said if we ever get invaded its almost guaranteed that we will have more friendly fire casualties then there were invading forces deployed

To an extent @Rainfall0204 is correct imo. If you take a look at some countries where owning a gun is not so impossible like the Swiss and in Finland - terrorists will think twice about attacking, because chances are much higher that they will be counterattacked.
In France, I assume owning a gun is not so easy, and the terrorists knew they wouldn't have to put up much of a fight.

But it is a very debatable subject.

You think people willing to die as a martyr for their cause are really concerned with IF they will get shot? I seem to remember in the USA where guns are plenty of incidents where airplane crashed into buildings, pressure cooker bombs blew up happy sporting events, a van blew up a world trade center, multiple mass murders due to ONE gunman at a school, and the list goes on.....I am American and all for 'merica cuz %$#^ yea! but saying the problem is guns or lack of guns is retarded. The problem is bad people will find a way to do bad things because its what they do and their motivations for this are irrelevant as they are only justifications to bad people to do bad things and in their mind not be bad people.

Obviously when attacks are lodged via airplanes crashing into buildings or bombs going off at sporting events guns are obsolete. I was referring to this specific incident where the situation might have been totally different if some citizens were armed.

Although if they expected some form of a fight back, they would have done something else, making armed citizens totally useless.
Bringing us back to square one.

If you read carefully you will see I said @Rainfall0204 is right to an extent. To an extent.... It could have helped this specific incident.
But if there were more loose gun-laws, we wouldn't have had this specific incident - the terrorists would have killed another way.

That is about the most ridiculous thing I have read today. If that is the case every police officer in the world needs to carry a rocket launcer, chaingun, and have full access to drones, artillary, etc. The probelm isnt becuase the police didnt have guns, etc. 911 happened right? In the USA police carry guns right? In the USA individuals can own guns right? So using your logic 911 couldnt have happened because...GUNS!.....Or the other logical nonsense of inability to protect its citizens, which the point of terrorism and these kind of attacks and what makes them so TERRIFYING....is they directly identify the fact that NO ONE is protected. Think about if someone driving a car jsut decided hey, im going to drive my car on this sidewalk full of people in the name of ISIS. How could ANY government protect against that? Ok ban cars. Then people will use a different method. The problem is sick twisted people that for whatever motive decide to harm people. Not governments nor guns.
