Post your observations here.

Richard Miniter was on FNC and said that even if an employee is caught on videotape stealing from their employers, they cannot be fired.

"They hadn't recovered by WWII, nor have they yet."

You'd never know by their attitude that they hadn't recovered. They've played the arrogant fool all this time, trying to be something they aren't. They've always thought of themselves better than everyone else. I guess they're finally finding out that they aren't.

I couldn't believe the cops out in Riverside last week put on riot gear and actually ARRESTED some perps!

Didn't they get the PC/appeasement memo?
Don't they know they're in Mexifornia?

What is really amazing to watch is that the police will not raise their sticks when an apprehended rioter is resisting.

Ahem! They may have heard you.

My son served in the US Army and was stationed in Germany for some time.

When he pulled guard duty, he walked the perimeter of tanks and shells with a rifle sans ammunition.

They feared an "international incident".

Well, McPain said today that they don't have the votes for amnesty.

That's the best news I've heard in days. Hope it's true!

Hopefully, they're mad and not going to take it anymore.

We can't forget the French Resistance. People to be revered for all time.

It's dusk now in France. Do the riots historically run out of steam during the evening or are there going to be looters continuing the mayhem?

Balderdash.

The Germans were bled just as dry, and also had onerous treaties, reparations, and severe restrictions placed on them, as well, and it was those same Germans who came, saw, and kicked French ass.

Wow - what a picture. I've been to Rennes and it's shocking to see that.

I saw that grapic earlier and laughed at my post suggesting they weren't using force.

Cheers.

France is just reaping the seeds of socialism it sowed long ago.
