C'est la vie!

Check out how France is going to tax her people to death.

Headlines: France to fight industrial polluters with coal tax

The government promises to create a domestic coal tax and push with European partners for a carbon tax on goods from countries that ignore the Kyoto Protocol.

France mulls London-style vehicle tax for cities

France may follow London's lead by slapping a tax on vehicles entering Paris and other major cities to cut pollution and traffic jams.

They are also banning smoking in all public places this month

France let that murderer Ira Einhorn live there for years too. Let the Muzzies have them!

It never ceases to amaze me how anyone can honestly view Mumia Abu Jamal as anything but a unremorseful, cold-blooded cop killer. Every conspiracy theory about him being wrongfully convicted or otherwise "set up" has been debunked by the facts. He's no more innocent than "Tookie" Williams was.


Justice for Daniel Faulkner, not his killer!

F*ck the French.

Roman Polanski is still luxuriating in France, thumbing his nose at America for his crime of drugging, raping, and sodomizing a thirteen year old.

It seems that Arafat's hoe used to live in Paris; Duvalier still lives in the south of France.

I read the title and thought Paris Hilton was being sued.

a carbon tax on goods from countries that ignore the Kyoto Protocol.

Which is clearly illegal under WTO treaties. I assume the EU is party to the WTO, irrespective of their political America bashing.

"His supporters, who allege the trial was a travesty of justice, managed to prevent his execution in 1995 and again in 1999, when a hired killer, Arnold Beverley, confessed to have shot Faulkner in a mafia hit."

Beverley had nothing to do with jamal's holding justice at bay. It was the PA courts. Only 3 killers have been executed in PA since they reinstituted the death penalty. They have all been white.

Yet another reason I do not allow my companies to do any business at all with France!!

I'm all for things like this only because 99% of the time, it's a street you wouldn't want to drive down anyway. If I see Mumia street, chances are I want to avoid it at all cost. A map becomes a lifesaver.

black US activist Angela Davis Hmm, a murderer defending a murderer...no surprise there.
