Is France having any Black Friday sales after this knife attack? Asking for a Philly friend.

The very same Muslims that France delivered weapons to when they were in Syria, calling them 'Rebels'

Extremely disturbing and condemnable.

this knife attack was obviously due to macron refusing to budge and upholding freedom of speech in france. when people resort to attacking people with knives or beheading people who disagree or mock their religion then this a cult.
