I agree. No one should ever have to experience what they've gone through.

I have an 80 year old friend who lives in Paris, we spoke 4 days ago.

You would love her, a real free spirit, stick figure, flaming (colored) short, red hair, very French, can you say outspoken? So funny, I love her.

She is a fire brand, brave, honorable, and willing to put her feet where her words are, she would be the first to storm the barricades.

Unfortunately, this is not a war of honor, nor, do I think it will be.

La Marseillaise
Allons enfants de la Patrie, Arise,
Le jour de gloire est arrivé !
Contre nous de la tyrannie,
L'étendard sanglant est levé, (bis)
Entendez-vous dans les campagnes
Mugir ces féroces soldats ?
Ils viennent jusque dans nos bras
Égorger nos fils, nos compagnes !

I am a Francophile. I love France and have visited many, many times. I have beloved French friends. This terrorist attack is heartbreaking. I pray that the freedom-loving countries of the world will unite to fight these monstrous Islamic terrorists.
