I don't think that the number of cars burned is a good metric for this.

Surely people who can have moved their cars to safer areas by now. And certiantly those simply sitting about have already been burned.

The violence by white youths as well as French-born citizens of African and Arab origin began in Paris suburbs on Oct. 27 after the deaths of two youngsters apparently fleeing police.

What do you call 10,000 burning Citroens?
Answer: carfew.

The French should look on the bright side. At least with fewer autos competing for the available gas, the price/liter should drop a bit.

In the islamic 'religion' violence is the preferred method of solving problems. Why on earth does any country want these barbarians immigrating to them?

You caught this too, huh? It suddenly dawned on the media that they were being prejudice by accusing only the black youths of this crime. It only took the media, 14 days of riots in order for the media to recognize their own racism in how they were reporting this crime.

Seems to me that anyone paying what they pay for gas only to use it to start fires isn't all that poor.

Yes. I, too, have been saying this. And where there are burqas, alcohol and pork product prohibitions, and church closings can't be far behind.

They scare the middle class into working like slaves just to get out of those neighborhoods; thus encouraging more work for less pay.

Or they're waiting for the replacement or rental cars to show up. And the new glass for the broken windows of the buildings.

The French are so unlikeable. But it is depressing to see a formerly Christian country, and a bastion of Western civilzation, grovel and snivel before the barbarians of islam.

The French fashion designers put veils and face coverings on the runway models this year but no one took them up on that particular fashion statement. Maybe if they used foot binding and manacles instead,they would get a more positive response from the mainstream media. Who knows what the public is ready to wear.

"Hundreds of cars were burnt in France overnight "

--i suspect this is a riot driven by the SUVs.
