If people arent up to date, the riots are the undeniable cause of unrest and injustice between french and muslim groups.
The whole riots started from the 'accidental' deaths of two teenagers but now has escalated so huge that it evoked a 50 year old law set by France in colonial algeria which basically just harshens the arrest rules, etc.
Rioting has fell almost 1/4th percent last time i checked but that is disappointing to me because the riots seem necessary since not much action has been taken to control equality. The muslims are basically poverty stricken and seem to be secluded from the majority of France, this isnt to say that all muslims in france are but a damn big number is. Its pretty abhorrent that even Interior Minister Nicolas Sarkozy is refering to the rioters as 'scum' when they are risking their life for equality.
Its my opinion in what i say so i dont feel like hearing shit about how someone thinks im wrong, or calling me a dumbass about my thoughts. If you disagree good for you speak y our mind but dont be so quick to condemn.

im talking about the act of rioting itself seems necessary that would proably event in some destruction of some property. however, i wasnnt talking about it causing the destruction of random objects.

burning shit rules, unless its burning people which i believe the french did. in all seriousness, rioting never goes over big with the government, if anything it causes more inequality.

because they see the rioters as hostile human beings that only use violence as a way to portray what they are saying, therefore causing the "riotee" to be more hostile back, thus more inequality

Well it is inequality in the eye of something they dont care much for since it hasnt treated them favorably. So in either case I dont really see anything changing with that.
But hey, my opinion.
