Since Rush mentioned a burned car count today, I gathered together some sources online, and compiled this site. I will do my best to keep the page updated until the rioting ceases. If you have more information or better numbers, let me know.

Burned Car Count

Are you going to break this down to military burnt out cars, police burnt out cars, civilian burnt out cars, non-combatant burnt out cars that were caught in crossfires, and the occassional LeCar that caught on fire all by itself because it was a piece of junk?

Will SUV's be reported on this thread or another one?

Will this information be reported to Kerry and Kennedy and not only to Bush who may or may not be accused of lying about the number of cars or if they existed at all?

Will any cars be tortured?

Great! Now we just need a former car owner (Cindy Sheehan) to come out and protest against Chirac for provoking these riots.

Last night on the Drudge thread, JWojack shared the estimate of 4,100 vehicles so far.

That is hugh !

This is not a laughing matter.

"Let them eat burnt cake" LOL!!!

[knarf]

Tres hugh !!

Greenpeace is trying to duck this one because someone has suggested they be the ones to write the enviromental impact statement. Remember your history, Greenpeace is at war with the French Navy. To jog your memory on that, France won its only naval victory in two hundred years in a sea battle in New Zealand over Greenpeace.

On the plus side, traffic congestion has eased quite noticeably around Paris.

Be careful what you wish for, there may not be that much beer.

I sent Rush the link to your count site and the link to this thread.

[b4its2late]

True. Then we'll switch to wine.....

[TX Bluebonnet]

Yeah, and they burned about 25 city buses in a row, not to mention the ones they highjacked that were in use. Maybe next they'll flog their own feet.

You might want to change the source on November 4th from "Bangcock" to "Bangkok".

The French navy defeated the Greenpeace boats? I'm amazed.

(I do recall that the US's first battle after declaring war on Nazi Germany was to destroy the French navy.)

Fiat's Italian, They count more than a Citroen!......

But the smoke is much worse.

I was wondering why this seemed so strangely familiar to me, then I remembered: Jean Luc Godard's "Weekend"! Despite his politics, he was strangely prescient on this one.
