LBJ implemented the Great Society to cure our urban unrest in the '60's. Worked great, huh?

[2 Kool 2 Be 4-Gotten]

Yutes working off steam - nothing a little affirmative action won't solve.

[shankbear]

Wee Wee Muzzie madness. Call Cleuseau.

So when the increased the number of muslims race relations worsened? Ergo, logically speaking, to IMPROVE race relations they should....

[Cicero]

Hmm. A hundred cars burned every night. Fourteen police attacked every day. Electrical workers and firemen attacked for doing their jobs. Nobody paying their electricity bills and the state is too fearful to turn off their power.

If this goes on, who knows? There might start to be a little trouble.

Frankly, if the French don't act soon, it will be too late to restore law and order, not to say French civilization, such as it is.

[singfreedom]

Yeah, almost as "great" as his plan to fight the Vietnam war.

[TheLion]

Don't the French police carry any weapons?

[Hawk1976]

The state, as it sits, either asserts it's authority, or abandons the territory. There are places in our cities that are no better. The situation at our border is similar.

[Hambone02]

...as the country faces the worst race relations crisis in its history.

Is this what we have to look forward to? The result of not controlling illegal immigrants?

[A CA Guy]

Kerry was their earlier talking to the Yoots!

Oxymoron alert:

But a leaked report by the French police intelligence service, the Renseignements Généraux (RG), concluded last year that Islamists had "no role in setting off the violence", which it described as a "popular revolt" against the authorities.

[elmer fudd]

I know which side I'm betting on. I may not like the moose limbs, but they've got way more balls and determination than the French.

[river rat]

At this point -- France's only option (if they wish to survive) is to issue "Shoot to Kill" orders for any and all rioters...

It won't take many...to stop the bullshit - assuming the lunatics are "trainable"..

If they're not trainable - they are certainly executable..

Semper Fi

Youths (Muslims) Challenge The French State

Why don't these kids pick on somebody their own size?

[SauronOfMordor]

They are consolidating power in their enclaves.

Car burnings are a message to non-Muslims that they should leave Muslim-claimed areas.

Attacks on police are a message that the Muslims are sovereign in their areas

[cowtowney]

I'm sure this is great for tourism, which is one of france's biggest sources of foreign income...that is besides the sale of those Peugeots and Renault Dolphines./s

[Capt. Tom]

A PC British paper just can't use the word Muslim. And the French are still trying to peg the problem as something besides Muslim vs Infidel. - Tom

youths = Muslims
immigrant families = Muslims
territorial gangs = Muslims
disaffected youths= Muslims
race relations= Muslims vs Infidels
