I don't get it, is he holding hostages? why isn't the police storming him and getting it over? by this point i believe that they are sieging him for 8 hours already.
He doesn't hold hostages. He has surrendered one of his weapons (which may be the .45 he used for the shootings), but the police knows he has more. He has also indicated where to find his car with the weapons it contained.
I suppose the police prefers not to have to storm if they can arrest him otherwise - and since the guy proves more talkative than is usually the case in such situations, they keep talking with him. Their goal is to get him alive, not to riddle him with bullets.
To be fair, I've noticed in the past 48 hours the Left shamelessly using the tragedy to blame the situation on Sarko's "too many foreigners" speech. As much as M. Le Pen may be breathing a sigh of relief that it wasn't a right-wing extremist.....I surely imagine the many on the Left being secretly upset it is not as well.
Point being...the political opportunism some have taken in regards to the ongoing killing spree is nothing short of despicable.
