Riots in France

Hey, in LA, it probably could happen. Similar situtation in France,
were the multiculturalist attitude seeks not assimilation, but
independent cultural groups co-existing. In the L.A. area, you
have a massive influx of mexican immigrants (many illegal) who do
not wish to become American citizens. They live as if they were in
Mexico, except taking the benifits of America, including free
schooling. They do not become American, and fail to become
part of society. That means they stay isolated, and poor, and it
gives them an excuse for their situation.

In other parts of the US, first generation natural born mexicans
(children of immigrants) are indistinguishable from anybody else.
They are as American as anybody. They have their family’s
culture, but they’re no different,a nd they’re just as sucessful as
anyobe else. NC has a huge and increasing mexican population.
But they’re, fo rthe most part, becoming part of the culture.
California’s policies on illegal immigrants will eventually lead to a
big blowup. It’s only a matter of time.

It’s these isolated groups of people that have no desire to become
part of, and contribute to, American culture, that are problems.

I could see something like that happen in some of those areas. It
wold be interesting to see how it’s handled. Arnold would put his
foot down, I believe, more quickly than Jacques did.

Thus, you are telling us that a new “1992” type riots are on the way? In L.A I’ve heard that the Whites are too few…

What is amazing for me is that a little country town like Carpentras made the front pages all the way here in North America. My grandmother lives just outside Carpentras in a small village called Venasque and I had to wonder if she was alright as she to attend a few doctor appointments there!
It seems that this is slowly coming to an end as less and less people are taking to the streets every night! I hope this unrest will soon end to allow France to heel from its wounds! Many here in North America believe France’s image was hurt within the worldwide community! I tend to agree a little!

Just wish these will not happen there

5 or 6 cars burned in Belgium in the past 2 weeks, you can hardly consider this riots. Actually, some young criminals thinking it is “cool” do imitate what happens next door.
They are just like those who set their schools on fire end of August, so they can have a longer vacation…

Actually in Lokeren (Belgian city) the fire was set up by unemployed white Vlaams Blok trash! 😡 They wanted to let immigrants look bad. Pretty low …

Cars burned: 8,124 (!!!!!)

People arrested: 2,442

No comments…

Actually we don’t have serious problems in belgium at this moment. We have more problems with the bird flue.

Do you think the recent measures taken by the government in the past forty-eight hours will be enough to finally bring this to an end?
As well, it seems this problem is now slowly spreading to the rest of the continent with apparent rioting in Belgium and Germany. How long do you think it will take for these governments to take care of the problem? Will they be efficient or as inept as the current French government has proven to be?

The Netherlands, UK and Belgium are also afraid of a general uprise from their immigrants

Yesterday only (!) 600 cars were burned. This night maybe less…
But I wonder if the insurance companies (AXA etc.) can hold the huge car-insurance (and probably house and property) compensations claimed by the owners.

…..you lot have done an excellent job of keeping the discussion both civil and energetic at the same time, without resorting to derogatory remarks or personal insults. Keep up the good work!

I second that.

Well done everyone…. now let’s keep it that way. 🙂

:rolleyes: Are you coming on one of the UN peace keeping flights GZYL? 😀 😀 😀

I just hope they clear up the city and stop rioting soon…..I’m due to be there a week on friday :S:S:S:S:S:S:S:S

And speaking as a Moderator, given the ethnic issues intertwined with this issue, you lot have done an excellent job of keeping the discussion both civil and energetic at the same time, without resorting to derogatory remarks or personal insults. Keep up the good work!

Two comments.

If you live in a poor, run down area, much as I do, can anyone explain how the situation will improve by destroying the few resources that already exist?
