Call it what they want but their country, specifically Paris and its suburbs are in shambles and are rampant with lawlessness because of their own fault and nobody else's. But, once again (and not unexpectedly), the French manage to blame America for the world's negative sentiment towards them over the riot. Go figure. Stupid Frenchies. They can't stand the thought that the world views their policy and behavior negatively. How very left-wing of them to really care so much about others' opinion of them. Then again, being the left-wing that they are, this is all they care about. They couldn't care less about doing the right thing because to them there is no such thing -- there is only public opinion to dictate what is right and wrong.
The French newspapers have not hesitated making the comparison of the war in Iraq to Vietnam, but they were hurt when what happens in Paris is being compared to events in Baghdad. And God forbid that the pictures of Paris burning down would have the Eiffel Tower in them. Of course, this is a shot the New York Times dare not use, for it must defend France and Paris at all cost. As would be expected of the Times, it has already reported that Paris tourism should not be affected by the riot. I wonder if any tourist would support this view after seeing the fires and witnessing the violence from atop the Eiffel.
And lastly, I hope this will provide as an example to the liberals in Sacramento that integration is a good policy and makes for a good citizenship. Let's stop the craziness of requiring school teachers and administrators to speak Spanish and providing Spanish language education to those who can't speak English in order not to offend the non-English speakers and leave them too far behind in the classrooms. This is plain foolishness. This kind of liberal policy is a ticking time bomb. It is undeniable that the lack of integration is a major cause of the riot in France. We don't want that in California or anywhere else in this great and beautiful country.
