They were addressed alright Detroit is a craphole and black culture is in the pits

I looked. Everything there looks cheerie and happy and gay. Of course we're not talking about the "poor suburbs".

Every shot is of downtown and the Eifel Tower. I will plan a Paris vacation shortly after I book Aruba.

"Impoverished suburbs" with lots of automobiles to burn, and lots of tv's, stereos, and jewelry to loot.

They called up my father's Tank unit from Fort Knox to put down the MLK riots in DC in 1968.

A little history In 1964 Phila had a riot with major looting At the time there was a captain on the police force by the name of Frank Rizzo. Very early on he had the situation under control but was pulled off the street so as not to inflame the rioters.
So they were permitted to loot and wipe out mainly Jewish merchants ( Mantra was they have been price gouged us for years )

4 years later Rizzo became police chief and the mayor was James Tate

After MLK was assassinated Tate told Rizzo he had total control

Rizzo announced NOBODY IS BURNING OR LOOTING THIS CITY PERIOD.
Philadelphia remained unscathed while other cities "Burned Baby Burn"

I call on the Congress to pass a law to adjust the CAFE standards in US Auto exports to include, built right into the trunk, an extra 5 gallon gas tank with a gas soaked rag hanging out a hole in the trunk for exclusive export to France.

If France is going to burn thousands and thousands of cars, US Industry should provide a solution to capitalize on this french form of political speech.

Given the number of cars have been burned so far this year across France, this is a market that will reach 8,000,000 cars over the next 10 years.

My Dear Fellow FReepers, what do we name this car ?

Rioters set fire to hundreds of vehicles in impoverished suburbs of northeastern Paris

For a communist, it's always about economics. Never about anything else--like religious or ethnic hatred fanned by bloodthirsty mullahs.

What do you really think is at the core of this unrest--economics or religious hatred (Islamics hating everyone else)? If you think it's economics, why aren't there riots like this in ANY of the dozens of hell-holes in the Middle East where these individuals hail from?

[Vicomte13]

Correct.

And this will be the way out for France too.

Jobs cannot be created overnight in the private sector, and trying to pry free the rigidities of the French labor law would provoke labor riots and a general strike which would bring down the government.

Government employment, by contrast, would get people into jobs. They're already earning welfare and unemployment benefits, so it would not cost the state much more money...and they would start paying taxes and get off the streets.

The Beurs need to be working, at real jobs, all day, all year. Do that, and the problem of idle hands largely vanishes.

[uncbob]

Probably

Sorry about that, it was the best word I had on short notice. :)

It's a damn shame what liberalism has done to the black communities that were thriving without white intervention.
