Eagles Of Death Metal singer: Everyone should be armed

Eagles Of Death Metal frontman Jesse Hughes has said that the Bataclan massacre could have been stopped if everybody had firearms.

The American rock band was performing at the Bataclan theatre in Paris when terrorists attacked on November 13. They killed 130 people in a series of co-ordinated shootings and bombings across the city.

In an interview with French broadcaster, iTele, Hughes said: “I’ll ask you: Did your French gun control stop a single fucking person from dying at the Bataclan? And if anyone can answer ‘yes’, I’d like to hear it. Because I don’t think so.
