It’s those pesky youths again:
Youths wielding iron bars beat up two riot policemen patrolling a rough housing project in a southern Paris suburb, police officials said Wednesday …
Police were called in to disperse the gang of up to 30 youths who stoned the unmarked police car as it patrolled the area, police officials said.
The police got out of their car, were encircled and attacked. Some of the youths were armed with iron bars, according to reports.
No arrests were made following the incident, police said.
“These youths fear nothing,” a police union official said on LCI television.
Well, they sure don’t fear being arrested. More on the youths here.
“These youths fear nothing”
Proof positive that they are unassimilated. A real Frenchmen would have surrended on the spot.

- Some of the youths were armed with iron bars, according to reports.
I blame the decline in manly psychology experiments and the rise of touchy-feely child rearing.
Watson, repeating similar experiments [to Pavlov], noted the “transference’’ aspect of such conditioning. Having found that the violent striking of an iron bar produced fear in an infant, he noted that he could give a “fear’’ character to some hitherto neutral object, such as a rabbit, by placing it before the child each time the iron bar was struck; he next demonstrated that this conditioned fear of the rabbit was transferred with varying degrees of intensity to other things having similar properties (such as fur coats or cotton blankets).
– Kenneth Burke, _Permanence and Change_ p.11
You don’t even need transference to fix this common youthful aberration
- I suspect these ruffians are at fault. Note the four hooligans in disguise, not doubt taken while attacking those poor Parisian policemen.
Someone must stand up to them. Before it’s too late.

- Had 30 “youths” armed with iron bars attempted to attack two of New York’s finest, you’d likely have had a very, very different outcome. Don’t Paris policemen carry firearms?
And had said “youths” actually managed to injure a New York cop, the unrestrained wrath of God would have descending upon them and their neighborhood within minutes.
Note to the French: perhaps the “youths” fear nothing because the “youths” have figured out they have nothing to fear.

- I blame the proliferation of iron bars. If they weren’t so readily available on our streets, we wouldn’t have so much iron bar violence. It’s time for the UN to step in with a comprehensive ban on illegal iron bars. If we just get control of the illicit trade in iron bars . . . [keyboard is grabbed by orderly]

Yep, a judge has awarded in favour of aboriginal native title claimants, ruling that native title still exists over Perth, thereby creating a precedent that may allow other Australian cities to be claimed. I believe that the government is going to appeal the decision, but knowing what our judges are like down here I won’t be holding my breath for a sane decision. I’m starting to wonder who’ll get me first, the Islamofascists or the aboriginal activists.

- #33 You should tell these people to eff off. They’re claim is based upon the wrong-headed guilt you have been indoctrinated with by the lefties.
We got the same issues in Canada with the aboriginals having the same social problems.
The claimants don’t actually want the social conditions of their captives improved as this would reduce the guilt effect.

#26 Andy, I know you’ve fallen for that line that Lutheranism is the Religion of Peaciness™, and it’s just the Synodians who are the extremists, but the fact remains that where Lutherans go, trouble follows.
Oh, this is utter poppycock. The Presbyterians are much more menacing that the Lutherans. (Did you see those photos!!!) As for the Synodians, they’re a fictional group of people lifted from one of the Star Trek: Vogager episodes and, consequently, almost entirely unknown.

- ww:
I googled synodians. For an almost entirly unknown people, they’ve got a few entries.The ones y’all really should be pointing fingers at is the Baptists.
I think I recall a sermon that I heard once while hanging out in a Baptist church one Sunday while waiting for a hangover to clear up enough to allow me to drink my way to reveille on Monday, it went something like this:
“Now, when the Good Lord said, ‘blessed are the peace makers’, he didnt mean them lily livered, long haired, nasty hippies, nope, no Sir! He meant like the Colt Peacemaker! For, when your enemy is dead, then you got you some peace!”
And if I remember it all correctly, the sermon ended with “Dont forget, we’z all meeting over at Bill’s house for beers immediately after we shut these doors”.
I’ll swear there’s at least some possible truthiness in that recollection.
- Jeez mark. I’m not a Baptist, how would I know all that?
All I know about religion is:
1) I believe what I believe
2) Everyone else believes what they believe
3) They can all go jump off a cliff if what they believe demand it of them without bothering me a bit, as long as they dont try to make me go with them.
C’mon, Mark, let’s not tar them all with the same brush: it’s the Lutheran Church – Missouri Synod that are the real troublemakers.
Hey!
Had 30 “youths” armed with iron bars attempted to attack two of New York’s finest, you’d likely have had a very, very different outcome.
…and I leaned back at my desk and contemplated that possible outcome for a moment or two. Gave me a warm feeling all over. Heck, they shoot the innocent ones 30 or 40 times…much less the yoots.
- #36, Kyda,
Empty words from an empty suit.
Yep, just what I thought when I read that quote. It reminded me of the umpteenth time we heard, “This was a dastardly deed done by cowardly dastards and we will do everything in our power to bring them to justice”, after another outrage committed against America. It got to the point that the rote speech angered me more than the dastardly deed.
As for the yoots pulling this crap in NY, it reminded me of a line from Rick in Casablanca. When the loathsome Major Strausser asked Rick how he would feel seeing the Third Reich in New York City, Rick told him that there certain areas that he would advise against invading. HA!

- #26 Mark, being of Lutheran background I would be interested to know from where this troublesome Lutheranism is coming.
You could be right though as it was Lutheran utes who invaded Rome in the 16th century and scrawlled graffitti on the walls of the Vatican.
I had a Holden ute [chev] once, also a Valiant ute [Chrysler].

Yeah, rings a bell. I’ve always been like that myself tho. What’s mine is mine and what’s yours has nothing to do with me.
The only time any of it becomes an issue is when some tard starts messing around with that thing I swore “to defend, against all enemy, foriegn or domestic” as part of my oath when entering uniformed service.
I guess I’m lucky I’m not completly hidebound on matters of oaths and honor tho, otherwise I’d have had to get up off my lazy arse a long time ago and start…well, probably getting myself shot or imprisoned.So, lucky me is flexible enough to just randomly rant about it from time to time and call it evens.
- Did y’all see this before now?
Pakistani Muslim Clerics: The Pope Must Go
About 1,000 Muslim clerics and religious scholars meeting Thursday in eastern Pakistan demanded the removal of Pope Benedict XVI for making what they called “insulting remarks” against Islam.
Benedict “should be removed from his position immediately for encouraging war and fanning hostility between various faiths” and “making insulting remarks” against Islam, said a joint statement issued by the clerics and scholars at the end of their one-day convention.
The “pope, and all infidels, should know that no Muslim, under any circumstances, can tolerate an insult to the Prophet (Muhammad). … If the West does not change its stance regarding Islam, it will face severe consequences,” it said.Ya’ know…bout time to erase about 1000 cultist ‘clerics’, plus many more goat humpers.

“Chavez, Chavez, the people are with you” in Spanish
Dang! Now it’s all clear! Good catch andycanuck!
All this time and it’s been the Spanish behind it all!

the renaissance and medievil are 2 completely different periods but I got what you mean I would have just spelt it wrong – lol nothing wrong with a bit of bad spelling
- So completely off the subject and at the risk of offending people but does anyone else find it strange that that certain group of Aborigines (I say certain group because there was another guy from Aracun saying how great Peaty was) are complaining that the QLD State Government has decided not to have a minister for aboriginal affairs? I thought they were hell bent on being treated equally but any time anyone moves to put them all into the generally pool of the population they get all up in arms about it

- Nilk, I think SUV stands for “Sports Utility Vehicle”. So I guess its broad enough to include both utes and 4WDs.
Still, when I look at the old Falcon ute owned by my neighbour (similar to this one), the word “sporty” does not come to mind! I still like them though.
- Heh. And here I thought the ‘S’ stood for ‘suburban’. As in Suburban Uttack Vehicle.Posted by Nilknarf Arbed on 2006 09 22 at 01:49 AM • permalink

All the more shameful then, for the Guardian, the chief ‘organ’ of invertebrate liberalism, to editorialise, magisterially about Islamic-Christian relations (18-9-06). What needs to be done is to defend free speech, without weaseling equivocation. The Guardian argued, essentially, that the sensibilities and demands of political Islam should be pandered to. Theirs is liberalism rendered helplessly unprincipled, denuded both of historical perspective and historical memory. It is without even a spark of the will to defend the liberal values it professes to hold…

On the Dixie Chick front, I hear Hugo Chavez is single again, or close enough, if Natalie needs a date.
- Actually, france can utilize its socialist infrastructure and simply redesignate all schools as boarding schools and lock up all school age kids between the ages of 8 and 30. Throw in some strict, old school, nuns and a few slightly pervy headmasters and you got a set up that’ll let the rest of the country sleep nights.
- Like in The Stainless Steal Rat where his kids were boarded in a school. Chained to their desks until they finished their studies. All rooms solitary confinment quality. Access to foods dependant on quality of homework and scores on tests.
If I’d have gone to a school like that, I might even have learned this stuff about which words go in what order to make em which thing.
- 93. Apologies to young ladies in advance (if you’re easily offended), but looking at my thought processes, and those of my friends around the same age, my theory is that between the ages of 15-27 a girl’s brains leak out of their ears.

When French patience with the Muslim twits finally snaps it will look like a cross between the war in Algeria and the Paris Commune. I’m not sure who will win, but for the moment I think the Frogs will, and there will be beaucoup dead Muslims buried in the ruins of the banlieus.

Nilknarf, don’t worry about 40. I hit 42 in a couple of weeks, and I can tell you that Bill Cosby’s grandfather was right: Don’t worry about getting senile, because when you are you won’t know it.#97
Paulm, it’s sad but true—and is one of the reasons I became Catholic. Better bulwarks against fads becoming doctrines.And #98
Michael, I have to say I doubt it—let’s do as the lefties do and look at everything through the prism of Vietnam for a moment. The French will go in with guns a-blazing, but the moment the fighting gets ugly, they’ll expect someone to bail them out. (But who can save them from an ingrown insurrection?)
