"Nobody rioted for him."

From France-Echos
Nous invitons toute la population à se joindre à nous pour rendre hommage à Jean-Claude Irvoas, dans un moment de recueillement, samedi 5 novembre sur le parvis de l'Hôtel de ville à 11h.
Hervé CHEVREAU
Maire d'Epinay-sur-Seine

Along with a token tee shirt.

May he rest in peace.

You know I think that that our crook --read our President-- is too chicken to do anything. He always wants to be PC and it's a shame. I think France could stop riots if the policemen were allowed to shoot back. (they can't). There is also a sort of censorship in the medias. that's really scary.

Welcome to FR. Don't be shy about your English. If you can give us insight into what is going on in France, you will be in great demand here. Are you in France at the present time? Have there been any reports of violence tonight in France?

As a Los Angeles resident, I can affirm it can and has happened here. From what I can see the Rodney King riots were worse, and the LAPD was an ineffectual as the French police. Only when the Nation Guard arrived did things get under control, and it took days too long for that to happen.

Dear France:

You reap what you sow.

No disrespect intended, but when your President said he was considering using the French military to quell the riots, I had to laugh. That must REALLY have the islamofacists shaking in their boots!!

The ONLY thing the French military does well is to surrender!!

Au Revoir......

All I can say is Thank You God that the French are not a part of our coalition in Iraq.

FYI ... L.A. Watts riots lasted 6 days. 34 killed. About the same amount arrested. Most riots last 2 or 3 days, don't they?

The French couldn't fight the last set of fascists that took over their country. This latest batch is no different.

Not true--the Police Comissioner was 'Out of Town' Brown, the city's first black police commissioner...I believe he eventually went to Texas and got a job as the head cop in one of their major cities. He was forced to step down after his failure in Crown Heights and it also came to light that he'd been getting some freebies from a compliant underling at his previous stint at Corrections. Ray Kelly may have come in after he left.

France also unveiled their own alert system: Green - Run, Yellow - Hide, Orange - Surrender, and Red - Collaborate.

Man, that's cold. ; )

Detroit is loaded with muslims. They will combine with the other urban elements and do the same thing as is being done in Paris.

There's not much to burn that's worth anything in metro Detroit.
