Hundreds of Cars Torched in France at New Year
Fri Jan 1, 2010 PARIS (Reuters) - Youths burned 1,137 cars across France overnight as New Year's Eve celebrations once again turned violent, the French Interior Ministry said on Friday. Car burnings are regular occurrences in poor suburbs that ring France's big cities, but the arson is especially prevalent during New Year's Eve revelry.
The number of vehicles torched was only 10 short of the record 1,147 burned this time last year, even though the Interior Ministry mobilized 45,000 police during the night -- 10,000 more than 12 months ago.

And who exactly are the “youths” who are torching cars?????? Can you give us more specific information about these violent “French youth”????? Are Jean-Pierre and Yves setting cars on fire for no reason????????
To: Steelfish
Maybe if they did not disarm the population that this would never happen.

Reuters makes me sick. They cannot get the M word over their lips either. Instead they say “the poor suburbs”. Sure.

Reuters makes it sound like burning cars on New Year’s is a time-honored French tradition...

The number of vehicles torched was only 10 short of the record 1,147 burned this time last yearMooselimb youts of today are la-zy -- resting on their laurels, can't even manage to torch the additional 10 cars to beat the record!

“only 10 short of the record 1,147 burned this time last year”
An “unexpected” loss in the number of torched cars...
The Mussies are slipping up.

It's been five years since the first incidents of torching cars.
Haven't these "youths" grown up yet?
