I haven’t posted anything on it because, well, I dunno why. But I think the French riots are fascinating, disturbing, important and a sign of troubles to come. I was listening to the BBC in the car this afternoon and some folks are really likening it to a full on rebellion, using words like sedition and whatnot. The French has a big complicated problem on their hands and my guess is things will get even uglier before things get better.
