WTF is up with the Phroggs?!?
Frentch Utes Car-B-Q-ing over whaaa?

burning cars seven blocks from the Eiffel Tower, shop windows smashed along one of the capital’s smartest streets, and columns of helmeted riot police advancing near a prominent tourist venue. ...carpet of glass shards, broken dishes and computer parts covering the footpath in the heart of one of the city’s most affluent suburbs ...On Thursday, as a crowd of 140,000 were about to end their march in the park adjoining the gold-domed Hotel des Invalides, near Napoleon’s tomb, gangs of hooded and masked youths darted out of side streets, setting cars ablaze, flipping others upside down, breaking shop windows and hurling rocks at police and firefighters.
For what?
[over a] law [which] would allow employers to fire workers aged under 26 without reason during their first two years on the job.
Alrighty thennnnn.....
Certainly makes me wish I was living in enlightened and superior France. What’s really sad is that I wasted four and half semesters of my life learning to speak their language.
