News accounts describing this shooting mentioned "assault rifles" and "automatic weapons" used by the shooters, whomever they might turn out to be. Such firearms aren't likely to be found in the hands of French hunters or sport shooters, assuming that there are such people in France.
I don't know if French law allows civilian possession/ownership of automatic or selective fire weapons, though if it does, I expect possession of such arms is restricted to say the very least, as it is in the U.S.,the baloney produced by the domestic Anti Gun propaganda machine notwithstanding. The foregoing leaves open, among other questions, the following. From whence come the weapons used?
The answer to that question, combined with the following, what next might be proposed in the legislatures of France will turn out to be interesting, to say the least.
