Why do they always have to stereotype them as "youths"? Not all youths are rioters you know. I'm sure there are a lot of fine young people in that country and they make it sound as if they are all juvenile delinquents! If I was a young person in that country I would be outraged that I was being labeled in such a manner.
The French Press is in a state of denial. "yoots" "les jeunes" is a code phrase that everyone understands. They never specify race, national origin of these people.
