some ppl look for any excuse to riot
    #7684842 - 11/27/07 07:42 AM (16 years, 2 months ago)

http://www.cnn.com/2007/WORLD/europe/11/27/france.riots/index.html

It happens all the time in the united states and it's considered an ACCIDENT to people treat it like one.

When I was in college, a block down from my dorm a fellow student got killed when a copy was responding to an emergency was doing 70 and plowed into the student's car. Most student realized it was the horrible design of the parking spots and a view obsctructing hill with a lot of trees that were to blame, not the cop. Very few people I talked to blamed the cop.

We never friggin rioted, we just had a vigil.

Why does it seem like the poor people in france are always just looking for a hair trigger to go off the deep end?

I think I can answer my own question with a quote from Howard Bloom:

This is an exerpt of probably one of those most striking things I've ever read. Not particularly the part I've quoted here, but if you guys have a moment... read the whole page here:

http://shaunoconnor.com/HowardBloom.htm

Quote:

People under the age of 20 have this massive hole in their soul. And they have built their personalities around cynicism. Cynicism means, simply, aping or putting into an ironic form - mocking - existing instutions, instead of building institutions of your own. What I've discovered is that because these people have such a deep need for something to believe in that if someone like you, who has a powerful set of beliefs, or someone like I, who has a powerful set of beliefs - I've been searching the Gods all my life and now I know them, the Gods inside of us. Or I feel I do. Somone like me or you who can come along and show these people that there is a meaning to life, that there are things worth believing in, that there are things worth being passionate about, they respond immediately. Now, we're either going to have the new Adolf Hitlers coming along, who know how to manipulate this need, and do it with the new nationalisms and the new tribalisms, and the new hate groups, or we're going to have a you or a me, who will come along and pour a positive message - a positive sense of something to believe in, a positive crusade for emotionality.

After Riots, French Ask: Why Do Youths Hate Us?
by Scott Ott

(2007-11-27) — After a night of rage and fire, during which rioting youths left 77 police officers injured in a predominantly-Muslim housing project in suburban Paris, the people of France awakened this morning to the obvious question: Why do youths hate us?

Overnight news reports from the neighborhood of Villiers-le-Bel described no common bond among the rioters, other than their age. In 2005, bands of youths rioted for three weeks, each night setting the Paris skyline aglow with flaming automobiles.

“We need to find out what it is about us that makes youths riot, burn cars, torch libraries and fire shotguns at police,” said an unnamed youth scholar at the University of Paris. “Is it a reaction to the historical oppression of youths by their elders? Is it the fact that our police have occupied youth lands, establishing stations and patrols and thus humiliating them?”

“Once we understand what we’ve done to set them off,” she added, “we can change our behavior and then, if they are willing, negotiate peace.”

I'm pretty certain it is violent video games and violent movies. Hillary told me so. It certainly isn't because of bad parenting.

No no it wasn't Hillary.. it was Tipper!

For a political party who keep talking about being free-thinkers, the democrats sure are gung-ho about censorship.

"ISLAMIC DEADENDERS RIOT OVER DARWINIZATION OF TWO MORONS."

naaa zappa you're wrong

I think they were just rioting cuz they're pissed of that their country hasn't won a war since they beat THEMSELVES 200+ years ago in a civil war. Hehe.

They're rioting because they want their government to declare war on Luxembourg.. the only country France can possibly defeat.


I have to agree with the rioters being mostly YOUNG *and* MUSLIM though.... a lot of em are immigrants or their parents were. Fuckin brats. If you don't like the laws in a country then don't fuckin move there.

"Left behind" is a pretty accurate description of Islam. Maybe some crazy guy can write a series of "Left Behind" books.

Fine with me as long as they bring their best ethnic food.

It worked for Vietnam. Now we have super cheap 24-7 Vietnamese PHO restaurants everywhere..

Shit dude.. I can make some crabcakes. I am the CRABCAKE MASTAH!

I mean CA's more commie than MD. Shit look at nancy pelosi that san franc... oh wait... she's from Baltimore.

FUck!!

you win.

Just so you know MD is being flooded right now with african, south america, and southeast asian immigrants. The area I live in... literally think it's about 50/50 as far as first generation immigrants to americans.

Good bye crabcake... Hello Pho, Ceviche, and gerbils on a stick.

Crabcakes were getting too expensive anyways. Food of the white man. When you get immigrants opening up a bunch of restaurants it drives the cost of food down anyways. Shit... I can walk to a place next to me and get a half chicken and two sides for $6.50! It's cheaper to eat out in my neighborhood that it is to cook.

Yup.

The fact that immigrants in this country can charge so little for food and still have better lives than they did in El Salvador...

works for me

Yea but people are just rioting over rumors of the cops fleeing the scene despite eyewitnesses saying the cops stopped to try to save their lives.

It's all just a bunch of ingrates that were looking for an excuse to trash the cities they live in... like the fuckin Rodney King verdict. Bunch of damn monkeys running around looking for an excuse to smash stuff and steal TV's.
