No, I DID mean to refer to reporting on riots that have occurred in the US. The MSM is just as smarmy in reporting on riots in L.A. as those in Paris. In both instances, they recite "causes," economic and otherwise, for the rioting. The simpler and more honest answer is that in some communities, the residents revert to barbarism whenever all restraints are removed -- by natural disasters (New Orleans) or man-made ones (L.A.).

Thanks for that clarification. I remember the Cincinnati riots a few years ago over the number of African-Americans that were shot by police. On the other hand, there were the riots because the home team won a sports event, which made no sense at all.
