"Interior Minister Christophe Castaner said the gunman was known to security services, and the local prefecture said he had previously been identified as a danger to security. "
Why was he walking around loose?

Apparently, they also think you shouldn't arrest or infringe upon someone's right just because of who they associate with and what they think. Have to wait until an actual crime is committed before something can be done. As some believe, justjoining a gang or terrorist organization is not sufficient reason to infringe upon one's rights.

If he was a known danger to security, he was more than just a member of some group.

Maybe the French need to hire Americans to handle their security full-time?
