Beating up rioters only makes the situation worse

How so?

This riot is just the beginning. It is an early and emotional crack in the crockery that hides the existing tension. The next round will involve modern weapons and the systematic bombing of France. Either, you act aggressively to take these neighborhoods away from the gangs, or you wait passively for the coming escalation.

I have no residential history in NY, but I did stay in a Holiday Inn there, once. And I've visited.

Haven't given it a lot of thought, as to when the rot set in, or whence it came. It would probably be a good start to define, as precisely as possible, just what we mean by "rot", and then try to ferret out when it began, how it manifested itself, and finally, to ascribe causes, or "take names"!

Most Republicans, I believe, are aware of the issues involved, if only on a case-by-case, law-by-law, or regulation-by-regulation basis. I think we are much better "versed" in this than Dems. But to look at the "rot" in NYC- or elsewhere- we have to get down to, well, cases, it seems to me.

Defining the problem is always the most difficult, don't you think? But essential. I am probably getting waaay off topic!

I can just feel their desperation. They don't know who is supposed to receive their suit for surrender. Maybe they will discover like their Russian Counterparts; Islam does not equal Communism. Maybe they won't and the world will have fewer socialists.</p>

That is really a shame. Me and my well armed "red neighborhood" (mixed white and black) are just waiting for some looters to try it. Easier than going to the gun range.

they outnumbered the Germans and had both more and better tanks than the krauts. The only reason they held on for 6 weeks

Um, actually after the battle of Hastings in 1066 France (Normandy) owned England. Then they found out the food sucks, so they let them go...

I am kind surprised they didn't hand the cops over to the crowd of muzzies for them to tear and rend and burn and hang and then they'd gather round to sing and dance and cheer.

Offering up the bloody sacrifice of pain and death to their
pagan god the world so longs for.

One has nothing to fear from the French: their Gallic laziness combines with their Latin voluptuousness and as a result they'd rather eat and make with their faces than fight.

President Bush May Send Up To 5 Marines For French Assistance

President Bush has authorized the Joint Chiefs to begin drawing up a battle plan to pull France's ass out of the fire again. Facing an apparent overwhelming force of up to 400 pissed-off teenagers Mr. Bush doubts France's ability to hold off the little piss ants much longer. "Hell, if the last two world wars are any indication, I would expect France to surrender any day now", said Bush. Joint Chiefs head, Gen. Peter Pace, warned the President that it might be necessary to send up to 5 Marines to get things under control. The general admitted that 5 Marines may be overkill but he wanted to get this thing under control within 24 hours of arriving on scene. He also stated he was having a hard time finding even one Marine willing to help those ungrateful bastards out for a third time, but thought that he could persuade a few women Marines to do the job before they went on pregnancy leave.

President Bush asked Gen. Pace to get our Marines out of there as soon as possible after order was restored. He also reminded Gen. Pace to make sure the Marines do not take tooth brushes, soap, razors, or deodorant with them. The less they stand out, the better.

In an unrelated matter, President Bush told reporters that he was considering a "Flu for Oil" Program to ease our country's energy problem and prevent the upcoming pandemic. Nobody had a clue as to what the hell he was talking about.

re :A French police spokeswoman says eight officers have been suspended after a young man was beaten in a Paris suburb.

If any police in any department in America or Europe acts in a illegal manner they will be suspended pending a inquirey.

Until we know the facts on this matter should we not reserve judgement
