FR: Mayors to actually arm some local police
RT Link (snark is mine)

The terrorist attack in Nice which killed 84 people when a truck plowed through crowds celebrating Bastille Day has prompted several French mayors to arm local police. Non-lethal weapons are incapable of stopping a “crazed attacker,” one mayor said. (especially when he's driving a BFT, you ostrich)
"Along the Promenade des Anglais [in Nice] the municipal police and the national police had the same mission – to stop a crazed vehicle or murderer,” said Francois Bayrou, the mayor of Pau. ("Hey Rocky, watch me pull a rabbit outta my hat.")
“Our weapons against incivility (such as flowers/candles, social media posts, wagging our finger, and wringing our hands), such as the Taser or the flash-ball, are obviously worthless in stopping a vehicle," he added, according to franceinfo.fr.
