After Paris, Europe may never feel as free again

As De Villepin mentionned, France has never switched to a security-focused mindset. As long as we have our social net to circunvent the disastrous drawbacks of neoliberalism, I highly doubt we will ever have to. Even the problem of young poor french extremists will be solved. The basic idea is to explain to these "social losers" who consider radicalism as their last option that they are just breaking their toys.

Basically, we have to take care of our 15-20 years old youth. And give them hope. But that's true of every nations, western or not.

I already don't feel free and not because of the terrorists.

the end of the eu seems awfully close, first pigs now border closures.I never thought it would happen in my lifetime

And the rise in Euro-skeptic political parties, can't forget about those. I can almost see the UK referendum leading to a chain of other countries trying similar things, especially given the growing attitudes towards the whole open borders thing due to events like this.
