Burn, Loot, Murder.

Paris and other French cities resemble war zones, with burnt homes and streets littered with charred cars, as the nation reels under the sixth night of violence triggered by last week's police shooting that killed a 17-year-old boy of Algerian descent.

"In just six nights, over 5000 vehicles were set on fire, whereas around 3300 persons were arrested, according to a report from the Ministry of Interior on Monday," French newspaper Le Parisien reported. Rioters damaged more than 1,000 buildings, the daily added.

France's Minister of the Interior says there is no link between the riots and immigration, and further says that the riots are being conducted by "juvenile delinquents," "not foreigners."

A member of the French legislative assembly opined that the parents of any of these "juvenile delinquents" could help out by giving their little monsters "two slaps, and then send them to bed!"

If you think that sounds weak, it apparently was too harsh for some others in France's decadent political class: That legislator was reported to the police for encouraging violence, by the deputies of his own party. The charge may be sentenced by up to five years in prison plus a 45,000 Euro fine.

This is fine.
