Once again the French use the appeasement approach to no avail.

They were stupid to let these sub-humans in to begin with, now they are paying the price, the French way.

Wonder whether De Villipan asked the familes if they had taught their sons that playing with electricity (they were killed running into an electric power substation when electricuted) was dangerous and could lead to tragic consequences.

The French rioters are really "Insurgents". The MSM should repect that fact and give them their due. They are as noble as those in Gaza who throw stones for a living. Jacques just needs instruct the mayor to give them the keys to the city, etc.

Cheese eating surrender monkeys. Does anyone question the validity of the phrase? The french can't wait to throw in the towel.

Here is a plan:

Bring in the military, with real bullets.

Use them.

I suggest they follow the US method of riot defusing. Let the rioters burn out the lower working class who are skeptical of liberalism, then provide rioters with lifetime welfare bennies while at the same time allow a media campaign to create myths that the "oppressed" are akin to Jesus Christ and the early martyrs. Then in forty years marvel how things have progressed to where large scale gatherings of the "oppressed" call for the extermination of the providing nation.

It's about time Chirac intervene - 6 days and nights of rioting. Let's hope he really does intervene 'with a firm hand'.

will use a firm hand to curtail

A firm hand ... to hold the surrender flag? Pardon my skepticism. Let's hope this is a real turning point for the French regarding their assimilation-shy radical immigrant groups and the trouble they continue to cause.

Cut off their generous welfare and housing benefits and give them a one-way ride back to Africa!

Spoken like a George Bush cowboy. No self-respecting cheese eating surrender monkey would ever talk or think that way.

``The law must be applied firmly and in a spirit of dialogue and respect,'' Chirac said at a Cabinet meeting. ``The absence of dialogue and an escalation of a lack of respect will lead to a dangerous situation.''

Some now say the biggest threat of terrorists emerging is from Europe not the Middle/Far East.

"The French rioters are really "Insurgents". The MSM should repect that fact and give them their due. "

***

Like the MSM here -- calling the thugs in Iraq and elsewhere "insurgents" or "rebels" or my favorite (gag) "freedom fighters" -- they are none of the above. They are criminal thugs and terrorists, and the only way to stop them is to use force. No dialog, no inviting them to tea, no negotiation. Force -- swift and deadly.

Worth remembering: the two "youths" were "electrocuted" when they VOLUNTARILY jumped a fence at a power station.

No cops shot them.

No cops made them jump the fence.

They were stupid, they lived stupid, they died stupid, and now the utterly stupid French government is wringing it's hands over the utterly stupid riots that have ensued.

Is there no one in France with an IQ over 6?

Extra starch in the white flags.

If I were French I'd have a "don't blame me, I voted for LePen" bumpersticker.

What more do they want?

France, for now. The rest of Europe can wait 'til later.

I'm afraid their Jihadi allies in Iraq and Gaza wouldn't understand the French using force against the Jihadis in France.
