Messy France

While looking at different newspapers from different countries today, I noticed one thing : people over the world seem to think France is at war or something. Well, let me tell you, it's not that bad; I mean, yeah, cars burn, that's not good. But seriously, in real riots, there are deaths every day, and you count them more by dozens than one by one. In real war, the military is involved. In real emergency context, women are afraid to get out because they might get raped.
I'm not afraid. I haven't seen anymore soldiers than before. I'm very much alive, thank you. There are indeed things shocking, but it's not necessarely what you see. What is shocking is some of our politicians are all surprised about this, and pretty much saying "Why are all those immigrants mad at us after all we've done for them?" The thing is, they don't want to admit they have done nothing for those people, and that's what they're mad today. Jacques Chirac, ten years ago, went on campaign to become president, and was elected because he promised to solve the problem of the huge gap between social classes. He has done nothing, and today, all he can do is say how lucky we all are to live in such a wonderful country. Wonderful, my ass. The percentage of unemployed immigrants is a lot higher than of nice white people.
I don't really know how this is all going to end, but I'm pretty sure that when things calm down, our politicians will forget all about the current problem, and go back to helping the poor rich families, and give them another tax cut.
Thanks for reading.

I have come to the conclusion that politics are too serious a matter to be left to politicians.
