Rioters?

Aren't they Islamic Freedom Fighters? If France is a racist country that warehouses these people in ghettos, then aren't they fighting for their freedom... By torching one car at a time.

I heard that Lyon has a larger number of muslims than Paris or Marseilles.

Tear Gas.

AAhhh - chemical warfare has been used on the Muslims in France.

The French unleash WMD against poor unemployed youth in a blatant display of racist genocide.

It was a massacre I tell you, a massacre. </sarcasm>

I think we should call in a UN peace keeping force!

And the ancient centers of Christendom go up in flames and Muslim riots.

Paris, Lyon, Sens, Noyon, Reims, Avignon, Toulouse...

Alas, it appears that those who made things such and their defenders have abandoned their post.

You know some fool is now going to say exactly that. France used chemical weapons on unarmed civilians.
Therefore France itself is to blame for more violence yada yada yada. I wonder who's fault it will be. I blame Bush, and Oscar the Grouch.

The Democrats demand that order be restored in France so that they have some place to threaten to move to.

A few night ago, some French politician was wringinh his hands on TV and cried, .... and if the Police kill even one prtester, there will so many more riots by our dissatisfied youth!

Bere beginnith the first lesson. Kill one and the riots will erupt. Kill 100 and the riots will stop.

Do you know of any webcams in France?

Here you go. Of course, you have to fill in the gaps with your imagination.

I'm sure the French govt. is feverishly working up a plan to blame America for causing this, which has irreparably damaged their tourism industry. Expect a World Court lawsuit after New Year's. I'm sure Koffi will back them all the way, too.

Evening from a very rainy Kent, England. From over the channel, I can't help but think that this is in fact an awful lot worse than the French leadership is letting on.

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.
