Youths riot near Paris
02/10/2006
Versailles - Seven French police officers were hurt during clashes with scores of youths that broke out after a car chase in Les Mureaux, in the western Paris suburbs, justice officials said on Monday.
The incident late on Sunday followed the arrest of man who drove his car into a police vehicle after being chased for a traffic offence.
As the man was being taken to the police station in another vehicle, it was set upon by a crowd.
"There were about 250 people - very angry and very hostile," police officials said.
The prosecutor's office said the number was close to 130.
Some of the police were hurt when a stone hurled into their car detonated a tear-gas grenade. One of the police cars was gutted by fire. There were no arrests.
Attack on riot police
On Wednesday seven youths suspected of the September 19 beating of two riot police officers in Corbeil-Essonnes south of Paris were arrested during a raid on a housing project.
Both officers suffered injuries to the face and head and bruising to the body.
One was hospitalised.
The attacks underscored continuing concern over violence in Paris's depressed suburbs, where riots broke out nearly a year ago.
In a letter sent to French interior minister Nicolas Sarkozy last June, a senior government official warned of a sharp spike in crime and the active incitement of Islamic radicals in the northern suburbs.
Only if you read the whole article do you even get a hint as to just who these "youths" are.
And of course the fact that there were no arrests in the latest incident.
Oh, well. Youth must be served.

“The attacks underscored continuing concern over violence in Paris’s depressed suburbs, where riots broke out nearly a year ago.”
I’d be depressed, too, if I lived in Paris.
I read last week, and I apologize for the lack of a corroborating link, that gangs of unnamed ethnicity in Paris have begun ambushing police by creating a disturbance and then rushing the under-supported police when they arrive on the scene. And there are never any arrests; if suspects are detained, they are seldom charged because of their societal plight. Violence seems to have become much of European governments’ idea of dialogue.

The french deserve whatever they get. If they had not been so cowardly, we would not have had good men die during WWI ,WWII or VN. nuf said.
May they all roast in hell.

Easy there 1st…we have to be “tolerant” of our muslim brothers who are so misunderstood that they are allowed free reign to burn steal loot murder and bomb anyone they see. They are, remember, the religion of peace, and if you say otherwise, they will kill you to prove it.

Interesting how the story, as presented from the DNC’s AP, differs yet is also similar, from the one above;

ASSOCIATED PRESS
PARIS (AP) - Police northwest of Paris used tear gas, rubber pellets and fired a warning shot to disperse a crowd that surrounded their vehicle after they tried to stop a driver for not wearing a seat belt, a police union official said Monday.
Six officers and a civilian were reported slightly injured in the clash Sunday night that was reminiscent of riots and violence that swept economically depressed French areas last year.
The clash broke out after police tried to stop a driver in Les Mureaux, 20 miles from central Paris, for not wearing a seat belt, said Patrick Trotignon, a police union official. The driver refused to stop, and later crashed into another police car that tried to block his path.
A crowd gathered, growing to about 250 people, Trotignon said. Some carried homemade shields, pick handles, stones and threatened the police officers, saying: “You won’t get out of the car alive,’” he added.
An officer fired a warning shot in the air, and others fired rubber pellets and tear gas to clear a path to a nearby school, where they waited for reinforcements, Trotignon said.
The crowd set a police car, and the car that was initially stopped, on fire, before dispersing when more police officers arrived. Six officers and one resident suffered minor injuries, Trotignon said.
French authorities have kept a watchful eye on low-income housing projects in suburbs nationwide where riots by youths, many unemployed and from immigrant backgrounds, erupted nearly a year ago and continued for three weeks.
Last month, a band of up to 30 youths armed with makeshift weapons attacked two riot police patrolling a Paris region housing project. One of the officers suffered a double skull fracture.
So the “yutes” are basically unemployed and from immigrant backgrounds, wink, wink. And they attack police for pulling a guy over for not wearing a seatbelt..!!
Those crazy “mooselimb yutes”, you never know what the a**holes will do next..!!
BTW, I’d like to see those same “mooselimb yutes” pull that crap here in Arizona..!!
Me thinks our local sheriff would be more than happy to show the “yutes” how we handle that kind of stuff here, heh heh.

Somewhat OT, but here’s a prime example of why Europe is in the shape it’s in -and why we should just leave the bastards (IMHO) to the Muslims.

Just a few examples from the article:

Incredible…..the lands of tolerance, quickie surrenders to all things, euthanasia, syringes from vending machines…..and this is the place that the liberals on the SCOTUS want to start using to examine our own laws and precedents?!
People gotta wake up and smell…..the burning of police vehicles tires……

The best part is the little room where the children can experience it all themselves.
That was called the outhouse when I was growing up.
