    Police sources said the unrest was sparked by an attack on a 16-year-old member of the Chechen community on June 10.

    Members of the Chechen diaspora then set out on so-called punishment raids seeking to avenge the assault, they said.

    France is a bomb waiting to explode.

    Not only France,Sweden as well and probably Germany.
    All it takes is one person,as we have seen in the US lately,and now in France, to cause havoc and riots.

    Come one, come all and we'll worry about the consequences when they arise.

    One thing I can't get my head around is this...

    Even if you are the most liberal 'person of the world' no borders type of individual you must see the trouble immigration is causing around the world.

    You must see it only gets worse, not better.

    You must see that what we are doing is never going to work.

    I saw a video yesterday of African origin youths in Tallaght running amok in a huge crowd. It's worrying and it's not the Ireland I know or want. It's completely alien to the country I know.

    Why are we importing this? What do we gain?

    North-African drug dealers beat up 16 year old Chechen a couple of days ago.
    Chechens aren't really well known for turning the other cheek.

    Here the result.

    It's somewhat relevant, she represents France... both have recklessly endangered themselves by voluntarily introducing risk into their own existence.
    Such hubristic thinking has been the downfall of many before...

    Cheap labour and consumers to keep the old wheels of capitalism moving.

    Always wondered what would happen if native europeans had reacted in the same way,ah thats right, you become a nazi.

    Racist. They are more Irish than you or me.

    I have never been to Sweden yet I have lived in both France and Germany. Most races, cultures, identities are intertwined in Germany. The native Germans have a distaste for certain immigrants, most notable the Turkish but they live and work side by side without any outward issues.

    In France the native white French are quite racist towards any immigration and especially to anyone with black skin. You can integrate better as a non French speaking white person than as a fluent black person. It's insane since there are entire regions in France with nothing but French speaking born and raised black population. Racism is everywhere it's disgusting.

    Why has no major news outlet talked about this?


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,980 ✭✭✭minikin


    Multi-culturalism doesn't really cut the mustard anymore on the mainland European condiment.

    They would be boycotted and end up out of business.

    France24 has it near top of their main page. Dunno if they are reporting on their tv news channel.

    I couldn’t see it on euronews though.

You can integrate better as a non French speaking white person than as a fluent black person. It's insane since there are entire regions in France with nothing but French speaking born and raised black population. Racism is everywhere it's disgusting.

    The problem though with France is that it's mutual. Black French are just as likely to be racist against black Africans, or against white French. And the African migrants are racist towards everyone, along with a growth in violence/crime especially in the South. I used to spend a lot of time in Montpelier (Provence), and I wouldn't go back anymore because it's no longer a particularly safe destination anymore, with the black gangs. I have a little holiday house in the countryside, and I avoid the population centers because it's simply not safe in the evenings... While the white french would contribute to that feeling of danger, the truth is that it's the groups of black people, and the approaches by two Black guys together pushing for change, smokes, etc that are truly intimidating.

    With Germany it really depends on where you are. I lived near Frankfurt for a while, and the Turkish community is cut off. By their own choice. A complete change of language, fashions, and customs once you enter their community, and white people are only tolerated at the fringes. Go any deeper, and you'll be forcibly guided out. I found most Germans to be more tolerant rather than accepting of other races, with the exception of Asians, who are accepted pretty much everywhere.

    Integration is only possible when there is the intention by all parties. Many Black people have zero interest in integrating and/or getting employment. France, with it's tax system and dislike of renters, is a hard place to get set up for anything longer than a few months... that in itself isn't about racism, but economics, but it's going to make life very difficult for those who arrive with little, and lacking in education/language (not all Africans speak french well enough to work)

    This country is fcuked, I remember years ago meeting an English fella at a bar in Cambodia were he was living, I asked him what made him move there... "I seen the way the UK was going"

    It's only now I'm starting to understand what he was on about.

    Brownie points from the EU - and maybe that longed-for seat on the UN Security Council.

    Loads of moolah for human rights lawyers.

    Other than that, absolutely nothing.
