I'll keep looking.

There is this from the Telegraph, not a blog...but...:

"We're not dumb. Sarkozy has declared war on suburban youth," said Karim, 23. "Unless he apologises for the way he has treated us, then he can expect 40 nights of violence," he said.

***The riots first broke out on the Chêne-Pointu council estate. Last Thursday, two adolescents from the estate died when they scaled the 8ft wall of an electricity substation to dodge police and were electrocuted.

A third escaped with severe burns. The two dead youths, Ziad and Banou, have become symbols of the social problems that ring the capital.

"They were good kids coming back from a football game. Their criminal record was almost completely clean," said Kolan, a black 22-year-old who was part of a foursome, all of North African origin, scuffing their feet in the estate entrance. ***


Almost completely clean?
