Just a random read I had.
As a former Federal security officer, movie-set guard: Chasing Mavericks, (Gerard Butler)A Very Long Engagement,(Emily Blunt) Trauma,(Cliff Curtis) My Name Is Khan (Shah Rukh Khan) etc. and one private Aerosmith (20,000 Cisco employees in 2010) concert myself; I'm pondering the cost of the 50,000 police and military security used to prevent a possible 1972 Munich style fiasco. And they must have learned something from the recent Butler/Tump fiasco as the gendarmes immediately captured a man seen climbing the Eiffel Tower. Suitably repelled at Paris, the terrorists apparently turned their efforts toward Vienna; and Taylor Swift cancelled her concerts?!! ...just a random thought I had...

They sure know how to celebrate in Paris!

While Putin, Lukashenko and Kim Y. Un sit in their bunkers, 'protected' by their secret services, and think about how to make lives harder for the people of the earth.
Wish them all the worst.
