Summary:
France honored the victims of the France terrorist attacks, that occurred about two weeks ago, on Friday. Each of the 130 people who lost their lives due to this event, were recognized by name, as well as a speech by their president Francois Hollande, delivering the information the the youngest person killed was 17, as well as the oldest being 68.
Analysis:
The fact that France paid homage to those lost in this terrible event is really beautiful and patriotic. The president was able to go through every single one of the 130 victims by name and honor them in a well deserving way. When events like this happen, I do believe that it is very important for the innocent victims get recognition seeing, as how it is the least anyone can do to honor them at this point. This reminds me of the 9/11 memorial the U.S.A. had to pay homage to all of the victims of that terrorist attack, to allow those people's names to live on and continue to be unforgotten.

I agree with you. I think honoring the victims was very thoughtful. It's nice to hear that every victim was identified and no one was left forgotten.
