French satire can be a little much but this is uncalled for.

> He said two officers arrived on bicycles, then - apparently unarmed - they left.

Mass import Islamists into your country and disarm your cops. Not a good idea.

Hey. Look on the bright side.
They only burned 940 cars this year. That’s less than last year.

Someone has to win. Them or us. We don’t have a strategy and we do not have the will to win. They do. If we do not get leadership in this country we will lose. It may take 30 years, but on the trajectory we have taken we are guaranteed to lose.
