"If you want to live in France with a residency permit you have to abide by the laws .... Immigration laws allow expulsions. I am the interior minister and I will apply the law,"

I don't believe it and neither do the rioters. I understand that all of the rioters are native born. I haven't heard that France can deport Frenchmen. So, are they deporting or exiling?

"...disaffected French citizens of Arab and African origin as well as white youths..."

Day 3,422: Less cars were burned today than the previous day. Rioters were warned that tough action will soon be taken...

Just for fun write your congressmen and senators telling them not to aid France in anyway with the riots. Let's shut the U.S. embassy down just like we did in Nuevo Laredo.

"The previous night two fire bombs were thrown at a mosque in the southern town, sparking condemnation from the president, prime minister and religious groups."

They also burned a few churches during the same night; but, those are cool, since only mosque matter.

Imagine if the Left cared for the cars...

"Will anyone think of the cars? Just 10 cents a day could save these cars! And remember, without your help, another car will go up in flames."

Talk is cheap.

Cheap enough that even the French can afford it.

"What is interesting is the fall in the number of vehicles burned," a police spokesman told Reuters.

They just ran out of cars to burn. Wait till they enter Paris and the Louvre.
