There were reports this morning that, as his cavalcade drove by, people were shouting "Murderer".

There are some indications that at least part of the military and the police have had enough. It is time for them to come out in support of anti-Muzlim demagogues. It is the only solution.

Conservative French politicians lost no time on Friday blaming the Socialist government for lapses that let a gunman drive a heavy truck into a crowd, pushing security back up the political agenda.

With presidential and national elections less than a year away, opposition politicians made little effort to put on shows of national unity seen after other recent attacks.

"We can't cry for victims every six months ... Soon things are going to have to be said, not for the sake of saying them, but for acting," conservative former president Nicolas Sarkozy said on visit to Nice on Friday.

Security hardliner Christian Estrosi, president of the Riviera region in which Nice lies, asked how the truck could have been able to plow through crowds gathered to watch fireworks on Nice's beachside Promenade des Anglais, killing at least 84 people.

"As far as I'm concerned, I demand answers, and not the usual stuff," Estrosi said on BFM TV on Friday morning, questioning whether the government had provided enough national police officers for the fireworks display.

Estrosi, who has warned in the past of a fifth column of "Islamo-fascists" operating in France, happened to write to President Francois Hollande on the eve of the massacre demanding more funds for police.

As mayor of Nice until last month, Estrosi turned the city into one of France's most heavily policed with nearly 600 municipal officers and other agents in a city of 342,000 people.

The regressive left think we can all walk around living in sunshine rainbows and unicorn farts and deep down, we're all the same.

I disagree with your last sentence cods. I think our security agencies know a lot about these blokes. The true marvel is not that we are having regular terror attacks now, but that we haven't had many, many more.

Our security agencies are doing a good job, considering the size of the problem.

It wouldn't matter if they had work opportunities or not, some of them are hard-wired to become jihadists. After all, Osama bin Laden wasn't exactly impoverished.

But your question is a valid one. I'll put it a different way: Knowing what the Middle East is like, and the fact that Islam is the source of more than half the world's terrorism deaths, why did France, Germany and other European nations want to import hundreds of thousands of Muslim refugees?

And then they're surprised when 1,000 women in Cologne get raped and group-groped by the 7th-century misogynistic horde they allowed in? That's like inviting cavemen to your black-tie dinner and being dumbfounded when they jump on the tables barefoot, shove food into their mouths and try to breed your wife.

Sort of like the Twin Towers were similarly levelled 'as an example.'  That sure worked, ey, Bobby?

Weren't those Arabs who flew those planes 'returning the favour?'  How'd that work out for Arabs, Bobby?

I'm sure the French are getting sick of this asshat getting on TV every few months and crying about whats happening to his country.

Actions speak louder than words, do something Hollande.
