We watched THEM destroy older important structures and did nothing to stop it.
This is just the beginning.
The savages need to be returned to the hellhole they come from

As Europe rejects Christianity, Islam comes in to fill the gap.

I seem to recall that a certain political party booed God at its national convention. We´re not that far away.

Pray and send the devil packing. Atheists (of which Europe is infested) are too cowardly to do this. It is only the evil of Islam which lauds such.

I’ve been to St. Denis; there are a large number of French Kings and, perhaps enlighteningly, Charles Martel buried there. The neighborhood is rough, but I would not call it a no-go zone.
This is a great analog for France and Europe today. Their history, their sovereignty, their former grandeur being chipped away window by broken window.

Charles Martel is THE reason they did this. They are avenging the Hammer´s victory at Tours which stemmed the Islamic tide. Since he´s buried at St. Denis, they want to overthrow it. No different than their "retasking" of Hagia Sophia or the mosque atop the Temple Mount. That´s how they roll. I´m glad to be going to Paris this summer. I will go to St. Denis...while it´s still there. Sons of Martel must arise!

No big deal. The rule today is that if you are offended by something, say for instance a statue of Robert E. Lee, you have the right to tear it down.

Macron certainly has his delicate little hands full. The blame for most of this rests on his head.

St. Denis was not a no go zone when I was last in Paris, but it has become one since the Muslim migrants have settled there.
Article says it appears the person who damaged the organ was hiding in it and damaged it while trying to get out.
Macron and mommy have been bad for Paris and for France.

I wish the damage was confined to our symbols. Had the values and traditions they represent been protected and sustained, they wouldn´t be free to destroy the inanimate objects.
And it´s not just the void of abandoned Christianity that Islam is filling, it comes as a package deal with what in the West we reserved for secular government after long struggles with our own interconnectivity.
Through "inclusiveness" the West is becoming a place that excludes what the West came to stand for.
You can´t support inclusiveness by inviting a convert or die ideology.

The Euro´s have little choice but to accept the muzzies. With birth control, women´s liberation, working mothers, and LGBQT whatever, they´re not replacing their own population. They can´t grow. They can´t run their factories or governments. They have too little social security funding to pay their promised pensions to their retirees. So the Euro´s are force to import labor. Sadly, their imported labor will eventually overpower them and subjugate them.

Coming soon to Minneapolis and Dearborn, MI. Europe has it´s no-go zones and we just read last week about the fear instilled in a Dominican community when an Immigration vehicle was parked by a school when agents parked to get lunch. When these people come here, the should come here to live, not set up new versions of the places the tried to escape from. If where they were from was so great, they should have stayed there!

#2, you are so right. The Left is pro-every-kind-of sex except the kind that leads to new life. They are OK with reproductive sabotage, family-formation sabotage, contraception, sterilization, abortion, infanticide, buggery, intersexism, genital mutilation: comprehensively against human life and the natural sources of human life, and, ultimately, against the supernatural sources of the meaning of life.
As for the Muslims they are not Western Secularists but they were just expanding into the vacuum.
Culturally, spiritually and physically, Europe must recover the will to live.

The key term here is the ´no go´ suburbs. That means muslims. I am not a catholic, but I mourn for the destruction of such beautiful work. The Lord prophesied in the OT that the descendants of Ishmael would come to live as wild men among their brothers. That is what we are seeing now, fulfilled prophesy.

Bla bla bla. All talk. I will nap till one brave general like a Robert E Lee makes the call to unite and defeat these middle eastern invaders. There is an army waiting out here that can get the job done.

St.Denis has been on my list of things to vist in France. The bones of Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette are among the kings and queens interred there. Read up on the French Revolution to find out how it pre-saged Marxism and even the Holocaust.

Import and subsidize hordes of 7th century barbarians and you get 7th century barbaric behavior.
Who could have predicted this?
