Isn't the prior rate of over 1300 a day amazing?

Maybe they have been running out of cars.

They are trying desperately to get this out of the news cycle. Fox just reported that the violence is dying down. 460 cars torched, down from 482. I said, WTF?

Then Jonathan Hunt in Paris reported that text messages have been intercepted that they're going to try to raid the center of paris this weekend. Also a mosque has been torched in SOuthern France, and nobody knows what the result of THAT'S going to be. This is a HUGE story and nobody is recording. Kristallnacht? That was for P*$$ies.

This apparantly is a MAJOR boon to the French economy. Buy stock now in French auto manufacturing, as these cars (and those burned in future days/months/years) are replaced. Little did they know, but these young French Islamofascists are spiking their heavy industry.

I just ran across this interesting headline on MSNBC.com:

"French police stay on alert despite waning riots
Arson attacks taper nationwide, but online tip-offs suggest violence in Paris"

Sounds like it's far from over. They're really out of touch with reality.

Hmmm, Burned Vehicles per Hour (BV/h). A new measurement for Europe. Must be metric too.

The Muslims seem to be angry with autos. They must miss their camels...or maybe this whole thing is about French autos.


French car

Actually, they outlawed filling up "Jerry Cans" with fuel. How do those kids afford fuel anyway - I would think they would just steal it ...

Did you forget about the very generous welfare checks they get from the French government? Taxpayers directly pay the rioters to torch their cars. Very efficient system

naaahhhh, invest in wine futures. When the islamists take over, france will be a DRY country. No more french wine. Do you suppose that will be a sobering reality for the frogs?

Wait until they figure out that assinations will gain far more than torching a car.. even a 1000 cars.. In that case the French will bend over assume the position, and grease themselves up..

No doubt those conversations are going on TONIGHT...

Did it come pre-dented from the factory, or is that dealer option?
