Quote of the Day: On the Less-Noted Mayhem That Has Plagued France for Years

Filed under: Quotes, Etc. of the Day — TBlumer @ 11:05 am

In a New York Times op-ed piece by Antoine Audouard:

“They talk about the almost 3,000 cars that have been burnt in the past few days,” he said. “But no one talks about the 28,000 cars that have been burnt since the beginning of the year.”

….. “They criticize Sarkozy for calling them ’scum.’ But burning our cars, our buses, our schools, what would you call them? Scum, that’s what they are.”
