Quoted:
The French engaged the terrorists. Don't damn insult them. The original report over the radio went out as a robbery. Not a terrorist attack. Officers arrived on scene and took action.

Numerous incidents like that have occurred in the USA in which officers were ill informed and took cover until backup could arrive. Cops are Soldiers like understand that there is a difference between cover and concealment along with fighting smart. Charging head long into a machine gun nest is stupid. Charging head long into two terrorists armed with rifles while you only have a pistol is stupid. They didn't quit and left, the regrouped and pressed on. If they didn't, then the terrorists would be alive today and giving speeches in Iraq or Syria.

Were we not told that there are lots of French cops with guns? So it is in fact true that there were a number of French police who were on scene or fled the scene because....well shit they had no guns.


same as the Terrorist attack in India years ago.

What I posted was a restatement of the varied, confirmed, unconfirmed, and contradictory facts that, apparently are still not quite correct in total.

As for not quiting, yes a bunch of muni cops did in fact flee, BECAUSE THEY WERE UNFUCKING ARMED. They did not regroup, they did not go to a gun store or armory to get guns.  They fled for their lives because their government body saw fit to outfit them as semi armed sort of security guards with some policing authority. Cops with actual guns showed up and got killed, because of a system of policing that is apparently not ready for terrorism, AFTER HAVING DEALT WITH IT FOR DECADES.

There was no machine gun nest, there were two guys who were mildly familiar with aks and some shooting skills. It was not ISAS, IDEVGROUP, or even IRANGERS. They were less well armed and prepared than the two clowns in North Hollywood, they just ran into French LE that was less prepared than the 1990s LAPD armed with 9mm pistols and the occasional shotgun.

The terrorists DID IN FACT ESCAPE, and had to be hunted down by other specialized police after the event.
