"The police and independent analysts say that most of the vandalism and violence that has marred the protests has been by young men, largely immigrants or the children of immigrants, from tough, underprivileged suburbs, who roam in groups and have little else to keep them busy"


---- Its those darn, white skinned, Christian, Norwegian immigrants and their unassimilated children on the rampage again

The measure is meant to cut a 22 per cent unemployment rate among youths that reaches 50 per cent in some poor, heavily immigrant neighborhoods. Villepin said in the interview that, according to the national statistics agency, it would create up to 80,000 new jobs a year "for a budgetary cost of zero." --siffy.com

Villepin wanted this law to help immigrants from France's former colonies. His actions were partly in response to the Islamic youth-rioting of last year.

It's no real suprise that French youth detest Villepin's law. Immigration is destroying France, and their future. They feel hopeless and lost, and their government has only made it worse.

And again we see that French authorities can't protect property.

Rioters all should be knee-capped to give emergency rooms some business.

It's a pity, because I actually wanted to be able to visit France before it degenerated into a third-world country.

Well, as John Kerry has said about something else, 'it's complicated'. Teenagers/youth rebellion, that sense of entitlement, sheer laziness, sloth, infringement of rights. Where this will all end, who knows. However, it's extremely interesting and ironic that Muslims masses won't benefit if Chirac, etc., cave. They'll be shut out of these cradle to grave job benefits, and how will they take that? More car burnings and worse. They're watching the news, the smashers' shift in tactics from property to people. They'll see how effective it is and will adapt.

They are called the casseurs

But you have to admire their flair in coining cute phrases.

Smashers?

Reuters and the AP identifies them as "youths".

I was reading an article by B.O. (Bill O`Reilly) about this, and he said when the French get a job they are immiediately get 7 weeks vacation....

http://jewishworldreview.com/cols/oreilly040306.asp

This country is unbelieveable! A month and a half vacation for a new hire! What kind of crack are they smoking over there? Some Frenchy gets hired to work at a McDonalds flippin` hamburgers, and he gets a month and a half off! lol!

Anyone have any spare handbaskets we can send them?

Thanks for the great posts.

"CNN compares the riots to the Tienemen Square student protest..."

What the hell is wrong with CNN? They compare the rioters' cowardly, nearly anarchic exploitation of freedom in France to the heartbreaking courage of the Chinese students who silently petitioned for an easing of government oppression.

Are they simply too stupid to see the difference, or what?

The police and independent analysts say that most of the vandalism and violence that has marred the protests has been by young men, largely immigrants or the children of immigrants, from tough, underprivileged suburbs, who roam in groups and have little else to keep them busy.

i.e., Mu-slimes.

"I am deeply worried because we are seeing an unleashing of violence by 2,000 to 3,000 thugs who come to smash and loot," said embattled interior minister Nicolas Sarkozy. "My objective is to avoid mistakes by the police, so that people can protest in safety."


Excellent idea Pepe La Pew!

Allow less than five thousand people destroy the lives of ten and a half million because you haven't the stomach for forcefully halting civil obedience.

Rather like Washington and the hoards crossing our borders, don't you think?

Even the weak kneed French will have enough and two things will happen: Interior Minister Sarkozy will unleash the CRS riot troops to put down the riots by force and the ultra nationalist Jean Marie Le Pen will become Predident in the next election.

The youth of France don't like the law because it says they will work for up to 2 years before getting fired. They don't like it because it sasy they will work!!!
