Paris Riots Becoming New National Sport?

With the 2006 French Presidential elections around the corner, seven nights of non-stop rioting in non-White areas of Paris have the French elite in a frenzy. White nationalist Jean-Marie LePen smashed the Socialist Party (equivalent to the US Democrats) hopeful in the last round, leaving the patriotic Front National the second-leading party in the nation, hot on the heels of the ruling conservatives of Jacques Chirac. Now Nicolas Sarkozy, Chirac's Interior Minister and the man who hopes to carry the conservative standard against LePen in 2006, is looking like a total incompetent in the face of the non-stop violence. Both Sarkozy and Chirac have had to cancel overseas trips in attempts to cope with the living evidence of the unworkability of the multiracial experiment.
