GRENOBLE, France (AFP) -
Rioters exchanged gunfire with police in the French city of Grenoble early Saturday, setting fire to shops and cars after police shot dead a man accused of robbing a casino.
Youths torched between 50 and 60 cars in the southeastern French city, as well as construction equipment and two shops, while police said they made five arrests.
Interior Minister Brice Hortefeux was to visit the city Saturday afternoon, his ministry said.
The rioting started after a memorial service for 27-year-old Karim Boudouda, who died 24 hours earlier in a shootout with police after allegedly holding up the Uriage-les-Bains casino near Grenoble.
Shortly before midnight, a group of around 30 youths armed with baseball bats and iron bars attacked a tram in Boudouda's working class district of La Villeneuve and forced the passengers to get out.

While it originated as a politically correct terms for Pakis, it does seem to have a broader meaning now.
Remember that the French wer sold out by their politicians in WW2,not least by those in government failing to protest the early Nazi moves in the Rhineland,and by neglecting the production of modern tanks and aircraft in the following years. The renault tank could have made a huge difference in the spring of 1940 if only the French government had ordered them produced in more than token quantity.

More like a semihuman Islamist piglet.
Send in Legio XV Apollinaris...
You’re speaking of French people that no longer exist. The ones currently consuming oxygen in that country are spineless surrender monkeys.
And we got a lot of ‘em onnis side a da pond as well.
They'd better hurry up; the families of these "youths" are outbreeding them three or four to one!
Karim Boudouda...
everthing you need to know, right there.
Dreaming of a long-vanished past...
No, more like Green Crescents.
Karim Boudouda. Hmmmm...France: read your own nation’s history. Google “Charles Martel”, and act now.
Muslim terrorists-in-training.
*The French are known to only take so much and then they will be brutal. They’ll have no qualms about loading these guys up on a boat and casting them out to sea......and then quietly sinking the ship.*
Bullcrap. The French haven’t been worth a damn since Verdun. They’ve lost every major and minor battle they’ve ever fought since then unless they’ve been up against a Greenpeace ship. They can’t even stop these filthy scum from torching everything in site. They’re a finished people and have been finished for nearly a hundred damned years.
LOL! Yes, that’s true. And it’s probably gotten worse now that France is a Fully Socialist State, even though I will say that there are some French citizens who are trying to fight against this.
Oh, good grief. I didn’t know this about Switzerland. Have friends in Basel who fought long and hard for the minaret ban.
Thanks!
In France, I believe youths are far more likely to be Algerian.
Pretty much the case in all of Europe, the World Wars took their toll pretty much on every European country.
