Um, 50 teenagers? Pull out a shotgun and shoot them in the butt. Jeez.

During the riots in LA, the Koreans lined up the guns and protected their property - ya gotta respect that. It's pretty hard to respect somebody that folds up and hides away.
Put some glace on it.
LOL...appears that 'sowing and reaping' teaching in the scripture is moving along at record speed. In the past, reaping what we've sown took yrs if not decades now it's happening at record speed.... ;o)
Something sort of puzzles me - how come we only see pictures of the CARS burning, and not the extensive damage done to all the public and privately owned real estate? Not just Paris, but apparently in MANY cities major and minor throughout the provinces.
With all the car fires, the entire fleet of automobiles in Frence has to be down to about two R-5s and a Peugot. I understand their owners are protecting them fiercely, shaking their fists threateningly at the advancing Muslim hordes.
I thought the last frame was a "riot".. look at the french poodle, the paraplegic frog in a wheel chair, and the french fry! And "Le Police" surrendering!!! I laughed so hard I nearly wet myself.
The muzzie-enabling media refuses to show the remains of the churches and nursery schools that were burned to the ground by these french "youths."
The lefty French paper Libération joined in eagerly: "Each catastrophe ... instantly expose[s] the society that it strikes [prophetic words!], and Katrina is no exception to this rule...."Nice and dry in his mountain range...[Osama bin] Laden must be dying of laughter [as] the American civil-security helicopters make like ducks along the Mississippi." Another Liberation writer, Philippe Gangereau, used the opportunity to attack the American president: "Bush is completely out of his depth in this disaster. Katrina has revealed America's weaknesses: its racial divisions, the poverty of those left behind by its society, and especially its president's lack of leadership." A different Liberation writer, Gerard Dupuy
accused the Bush administration of "contempt for victims who without a doubt were doubly at fault for being both poor and black." He concluded that the neoconservative "crusade," which was "already mired in the Mesopotamian marshes" of Iraq, had "foundered in the Louisiana bayou."
The "conservative" Le Figaro was little different: à cette occasion, l'Amérique découvre ou redécouvre qu'elle abrite le tiers-monde en son sein ("on this occasion, America discovers or rediscovers that it shelters the Third World in its centre.") Jean-Pierre Aussant: "This tragic incident reminds us that the United States has refused to ratify the Kyoto accords. Let's hope the US can from now on stop ignoring the rest of the world. If you want to run things, you must first lead by example. Arrogance is never a good adviser!"
There was also a Le Figaro interview with one Emanuel Todd, "a research engineer at the National Institute of Demographic Studies, historian, author of Après l'empire [After the Empire], published by Gallimard in 2002 - an essay in which he predicted the "breakdown" of the American system." According to Todd, Katrina was yet another signpost on the road to America's upcoming Soviet-style collapse:
Q: You postulate that the management of Katrina reveals a worrying territorial fragmentation joined to the carelessness of the military apparatus. What must we then fear for the future?
A: The hypothesis of decline developed in Après l'empire evokes the possibility of a simple return of the United States to normal, certainly associated with a 15-20% decrease in the standard of living, but guaranteeing the population a level of consumption and power "standard" in the developed world. I was only attacking the myth of hyper-power. Today, I am afraid I was too optimistic. The United States' inability to respond to industrial competition, their heavy deficit in high-technology goods, the upturn in infant mortality rates, the military apparatus' desuetude and practical ineffectiveness, the elites' persistent negligence incite me to consider the possibility in the medium term of a real Soviet-style crisis in the United States
....The gang of black unemployed who loot a supermarket and the group of oligarchs who try to organize the "heist" of the century of Iraq's hydrocarbon reserves have a common principle of action: predation. The dysfunctions in New Orleans reflect certain central elements of present American culture.
The lefty magazine Marianne gleefully announced: "The American giant folds beneath the weight of its failures and struggles to enforce an order that it wanted to impose on the world."
Agence France-Presse solemnly quoted a taunting Die Zeit ">editorial: "[Katrina weakens America's] image of itself as a nation which is the avenger and protector of the defenseless, the nation that brings order, democracy and prosperity. Today, it must beg for beds and blankets from foreigners." In the same article, it quotes French author Nicole Bachran:
"Sept. 11 put the spotlight on America's vulnerability, just as Hurricane Katrina has in another way. It showed that the country is not that strong or effective."

No, I am not exaggerating. Click the pic, go to "last," and read backwards.
If you are not informed about this stuff, you will be made sick. If you are informed, you will be made mad, all over again.
Then, correlate with some of our own problems:

Grrrrr! Now that makes me mad. The only thing that would make this better is if they have to come crawling to us for help. Which I would refuse them, after securing their nukes.

If you answered "yes" to one question, you are possibly French.
If you answered "yes" to two questions, you are probably French.
If you answered "yes" to three questions or more, you are almost certainly French.

Couldn't happen to a nicer bunch! I guess selling weapons to Islamofascists to appease them (and hence, get "eaten" last) didn't work out too well, did it? LOL!
Could it be that the Crusaders had it right all along?
Well, at least there is a pretty good mustard named after them.
If they had put as much emphasis on enforcing the laws of liberty, they wouldn't be the laughingstock of the civilized world.
It seems they believe in having a police force, but not using it. Ditto: military.
I should like to see France get her bearings.
