Paris, France Taxi Driver/Guns

My Friend send this email today from Paris.

i got here 4 hours ago, 6am Friday local Paris time. Our taxi cab driver said he would never go to the U.S., too many shootings! He would be afraid he would get shot😀 he said Paris citizens have no guns, if police catch you with gun, it's bad for you. He said only the criminals have guns. I had to laugh at that comment and he said we have a bad gun problem. Just wish he spoke better English, I would have verbally torn into his a** and he probably would have thrown us out of his taxi, only criminals have guns you go figure that one out.

I wouldn't go to Paris for fear that a terrorist might get me. So, I guess we're even.

There are other reasons I won't go to Paris, but they're not relevant to the topic of the thread. ;D
 
That type of person is all over the globe. They still come here if given the option. The ones that do come can't afford it anyway. They are always shocked when they find out not everyone carries a handgun. Granted they are little bunnies when they find out who has one on them.
 
People watch movies that Hollywood makes and they think it is real. I wouldn't be surprised if he said what he said with a gun tucked up under the seat.

Id be willing to bet he didnt have one. They have them so scared of guns they wont get near one
 
what bugs me is that the worldview that includes God given rights (not government granted favor) is so far out of our minds that liberty only means I can do whatever I want in deviant behavior and no longer has the meaning it once did. This cabbie is one of a host of people who honestly think that the goverement will protect them and that the government will always be on their side. Which may be true, if he is willing to waffle and always adapt to a belief system that is in vogue.

I say liberty is not a futile quest.

We have a saying to qualify your friends Email : Who only hear one bell, only heard one sound. Also, as apparently the conversation was half pidgin french/pidgin English, ???.....

The French have not won a war without the aid of another country since Napoleon. Their defense has been for another country or countries to fight their battles when they can not defend themselves. As it is so well known the French would be speaking German today were it not for the Allies, USA and England, had not come to them during WW 2. The Germans rolled over them like A semi over a possum.

If I remember correctly, it is Adoph who declared war to USA immedoately after Pearl Herbor, believing in turn Japan waas to declare war to Russia.

We are fprever indebted to USA and we will never forget, but free french armies were beside (and sometimes ahead) in all the battles, North Africa, Italy and on our own ground (including the Resistance)...up to the Eagle Nest where they won the race against the 101th Airborne..

F*** France. They are bunch of scared cowards. We had to save them twice. Back in the 80s they wouldn't let us fly in their airspace. When we after Iran their excuse was a fear of terrorist attacks.
 
gaboon, I hope that all people, of the planet earth, do not judge all Americans based on the actions of our politicians, as you have done to the French people.
