What's this all about...I glanced at MSNBC right now and saw a bunch of people rioting (fires, police with water hoses and riot gear, etc.)

they are probably pissed cause some government figure wants to outlaw gay marriage or something..wait, nevermind this IS France we are talking about. I thought this thread was a joke when I saw Paris and riot in the same sentence.

Although this one is over labor and liberal young minds vs. conservative views by the govt., they have had their share of race-related problems, as well

liberal young minds vs. conservative views by the govt

A friend of mine that lives in the Netherlands that does business with the French said the "liberal young minds"

dont want to work, and want all kinds of hand outs by the govt.

I think the low numbers there are Bush's fault.

I mean all the countries the didn't support the war have horrible employment numbers. I think it's a dubya conspiracy.

On a serious note. This is what they get for not cracking down harder on the last riots. And no not lethal force. But force of numbers in riot gear etc.

Do it like they do in central America and Mexico.. Roll up with the water cannons.

I thought I saw a sign that said "SCREW KIDD - KEEP TONY!" Perhaps they're a bit behind the times.
