'Four police officers were wounded against 34 the previous night..'

Are these muslim fanatics at least having the common courtesy to burn only the French made cars like Fiats and Peugots?? Its the least they could do.

And where are the environmentalist wackos?? Why aren't they clamoring for the French to send in the military to kill these car burners who are creating global warming and destroying the planet!!!????!! Killing Americans is one thing but warming the globe is a real crime.

It would seem the extra 1,500 cops along some form of strategy is slowing down the "yuths" a little

Well, one thing is certain... if this goes on they will eventually run out of cars and buses to burn. Then the French will get mad. Maybe.

respiratory embarrassment

Europeans can stink but one time, I was on a train near a pair of mohammedans and they smelled worse than anyone I have ever smelt. I was nausiated by their smell.

You haven't experieced a bus ride in Detroit. The first thing you learn quickly is to keep your feet off the floor. The sloshing stool and urine are a real nasal opening.

Have you noticed the wildly varying tally of vehicles burned? Can they not count over there? They sure keep track of our KIAs well enough. Who cares about their little econoboxes anyway! One poster said that all those French cars would barely fill up a good-sized American dumpster. LOLOLOL!!

The last time I looked, Fiats were made in Italy. Peugots and Citroens are French.

The only thing that is less is the number of cops injured. The number of cars burned for the time of night is almost the same as for sunday night at the same time. There will be an update later on the number of cars for the whole night. Maybe the cops are keeping their heads down more. I do not think it has slowed down and do not think it will slow down for a while yet.

I thought it was funny - the Fiat web site says Fiat cars, for your disposal.
