Actually, I am more amused by news like this instead of thinking it is a sign of the complete breakdown of European security (I still think Europe is pretty screwed, as opposed to totally screwed like the USA). What news like this proves is that all the hypocracy and self-righteousness France may pour on us for our "civil rights problems" and "social inequities shown up by Katrina" is absurd. Right now, they have twice the problem with being over run by Third World Muslims than the US ever had with our African-Americans. They have more illegal Turks and Algerians than we have illegal Mexicans, and the resulting crime waves around the French capitol are far more extreme than our illegals, who only want to stay unnoticed and work. Hooray for France, they are experts at screwing themselves
