French youths burn 300 cars to mark Bastille Day
14th July 2009
Oddly enough, “American youths” don’t do that for Independence day.
I wonder why not.
Today, disaffected youths from bleak suburban housing projects around major cities use it to express their frustration with high unemployment rates and what they see as France’s failure to integrate ethnic minorities.
Perhaps that’s why.

“…France’s failure to integrate ethnic minorities.”
It’s the state’s job to integrate it’s immigrants, not vice versa? Who knew?
