Policeman murdered in Paris terror attack
This is becoming frequent enough to almost justify a megathread. Although politics isn't really the thing to speak about with this, I hope this doesn't influence this weekend's election there in a dark way.

Gunman 'was known by intelligence services for radicalisation' and was 'let go' by anti-terror prosecutorsThe 39-year old gunman was known by intelligence services for radicalisation and had previously targeted police 16 years ago in a car chase, when he opened fire on officers, according to reports.
During questioning in a police station, he managed to get hold of a police weapon and fire five times. The policeman survived, but the man was sentence to several years in prison for the attack.
The gunman, who has a previous murder conviction, had recently been detained for questioning in a police station in Meaux, outside Paris, after "informants" had indicated that he was "seeking to obtain weapons to kill policemen", according to reports.
But due to a lack of evidence, anti-terror prosecutors "let him go".
The problem is there are too many people "well-known" to the police in France and Belgium. It's hard to keep a tab on all of them.
Hope is the denial of reality
Could start by not letting them be on the streets when they have a murder conviction.
A few years for an attempted murder of a cop? Wow. The police unions here would go on strike if that ever happened.

The US is well-known for not being as well along the path towards anti-racism as Europe
In the future, the Berlin wall will be a mile high, and made of steel. You too will be made to crawl, to lick children's blood from jackboots. There will be no creativity, only productivity. Instead of love there will be fear and distrust, instead of surrender there will be submission. Contact will be replaced with isolation, and joy with shame. Hope will cease to exist as a concept. The Earth will be covered with steel and concrete. There will be an electronic policeman in every head. Your children will be born in chains, live only to serve, and die in anguish and ignorance.
The universe we observe has precisely the properties we should expect if there is, at bottom, no design, no purpose, no evil, no good, nothing but blind, pitiless indifference.
Blame scum like Khen who think criminals regardless of their crimes should be back on the street.
