Sad.  Of course.  I know the French people will not be intimidated by this.<p>I find it sometimes asphyxiating to realize humanity has come so far and yet can devolve into baseline animal behavior at the drop of a feather.  We are very far away, as a whole, from being an enlightened species.<p>Clearly there&#x27;s a huge problem with a small percentage of people in the Islamic world.  It seems obvious the &quot;adults on the planet&quot; could and should have the power to truly unite against this ridiculous minority and stop these lunatics cold.  Now.  Not in ten years.  Now.<p>I don&#x27;t know what the solution might be but it certainly isn&#x27;t anywhere near appeasing or accepting them (the minority is what I am talking about).  I do know it is sad and ridiculous that in the year 2015 we have to take off our shoes to get on planes and worry about getting shot in a theater or restaurant.<p>Haven&#x27;t we all had enough?
