France is getting worse, not better

[red-beard]

"In all, 3,300 buses, cars and other vehicles have been incinerated in 10 nights, the police spokesman said."

and

"Police also found a gasoline bomb-making factory in a derelict building in Evry south of Paris, with more than 100 bottles ready to turned into bombs, another 50 already prepared, as well as fuel stocks and hoods for hiding rioters' faces, senior Justice Ministry official Jean-Marie Huet told The Associated Press. Police arrested six people, all under 18.

The discovery Saturday night, he said, shows that gasoline bombs 'are not being improvised by kids in their bathrooms.'"

"French President Jacques Chirac on Sunday promised arrests, trials and punishment for those sowing 'violence or fear' across France — as the urban unrest that has triggered attacks on vehicles, nursery schools and other targets hit central Paris for the first time. "

Jack's doing the right thing. Finally.

Is this social unrest the basis for a revolution, or is it just unmetered chaos?

And who or what is to say all that is happening in France can't happen here?

The French seem to be getting tough. They surrendered to Hitler before the Nazis did this much property damage in Paris.

They claim they're discriminated against.....

Many residents say repressive policing has heightened a sense of injustice, with officers systematically stopping and searching young blacks and North Africans in particular.
