Europe is constantly being targeted from islamic groups, but out of the countries France is just one of them. Throughout the years there has been several attacks on France. For example, the stabbing that has occurred in 2013, the shooting in 2014, and much more. This is able to show how badly France has been targeted over the past couple of years. Many people probably don’t feel as safe as they did in previous years due to these incidents. BBC states, “Previous attacks have included the killing of soldiers and school children by a lone gunman in the Toulouse region, shootings at the Charlie Hebdo offices in Paris, and a co-ordinated assault by gunmen and suicide bombers on a concert hall, a major stadium, restaurants and bars in Paris.” Although there are some listed, there are still several more cases of terrorism that has occurred throughout the years.

Senior Jerry Webster says, “I feel as if France should not be targeted. This is because they have not done anything it seems as if they keep to themselves and mind their own business. I  feel terrible because this amazing place is being threatened so much.” This is able to show how people truly feel about the islamic group that is saying it is their responsibility for these devastating events.
