My life would have been a hell of a lot easier if I had only known these simple things.

Damn, I wish someone had taken me aside and shared these nuggets of wisdom.

"You look like you could use a hug, Drill Sergeant" ...  :rofl:  He forgot to include the "have your mom call the First Sergeant if you're having a problem."

Saw that same act the other night at the local club. Not quite as talented though.  ;D

Not really funny, unless you look at how PC our society has become and how out of touch with reality many in the downtown cores of our large cities are:

Specifically the 416/905 area.

And you know, even with that posted on the internet, they will still not clue in.  [

Seriously though, it did cross my mind that renting a truck of this size might just be a wee bit more difficult now for certain demographics in France after this.  Or at least rental companies might have to alert authorities that so and so has just rented a large truck.

I don't think so. Rental companies want $$$. Ryder did nothing after the McVeigh bombing several years ago beyond changing truck colour from yellow to white. I may be mistaken here but...

I was thinking more of what might be imposed upon them by the French authorities more than self imposed screening.

And as attack vehicles get smaller and smaller to avoid this (if this specific attack was, indeed, a organized effort), do you think the French authorities will eventually need a profile on anyone "suspicious" renting a Smart car?  They haven't done this for the purchase of motorbikes after French soldiers were shot in a drive-by, so I can't see this happening anytime soon.

Overlooking the obvious solution, give everyone an assault truck. If there are more assault trucks on the streets, maybe the terrorists will think twice before doing something. It takes a good driver with a truck to stop a bad guy with a truck.

Good points.  Just playing Devil's Advocate on what the French response might be down the road.  Mind you, how many folks can you take out running them over with a Smart car?

Ahhh, but when one asks that question about cheeseburgers (how many people can you kill with one cheeseburger, other than someone choking on it?) when confronted with the "more cheeseburgers kill people from obesity than guns do," one gets looked at strangely and told "not the same thing at ALL" ...  ;D

So how many people die from obesity from guns then?
