        “Police told French media that the incident was not linked to last week’s terror attacks.” http://www.citynews.ca/2015/01/16/gunman-arrested-3-people-freed-in-hostage-taking-outside-paris-reports/

        @Passie_Kracht:
        #Colombes hostage-taker “mentally disturbed”, media say. He must be white and non-Muslim.

        @Avocatweet:
        Bon, selon @bfmtv la prise d’otage de #Colombes “n’est pas de nature terroriste”. Ca change tout.

        Basically, when it comes to terror, it’s the colour of your skin and not the size of your gun unfortunately.

          So absolutely no difference between criminality and terrorism other than the colour of the skin then. Good to know.

    It would seem that it is actually the script to a bad film being played out in real life what with the hostage-taker being “disappointed in love”, local prefecture told Liberation newspaper, adding that the hostage taker is a customer “who lost his head” and speaks of “heartbreak.”
