Eagles of Death Metal frontman Jesse Hughes claimed that if everyone had guns, the Bataclan massacre may not have happened, as he returned to Paris Tuesday to play in front of hundreds of survivors of November's terror attacks, AFP reports.

In a series of highly emotionally interviews, the American singer said France's strict gun control laws "had nothing to do with" the jihadist attack in which 90 fans died. But he questioned whether gun control had saved any lives at the Bataclan.

"I don't think so. I think the only thing that stopped it was some of the bravest men that I've ever seen in my life charging head first into the face of death with their firearms.
