LOL!

Ah Mike, we're just busting your balls (an American expression for deliberately giving you a hard time)! Sounds like you were on the fringe of some wildness.

The Canadian expression would be "We're just busting your balls, eh!"

Well I approve of Al-jazeera handing over the film to the police, refusing to broadcast it, and not passing it to others. The correct thing to do.

But this staggered me:


Meanwhile, Merah's Algeria-based father has been sharply criticised for saying he wants to sue France over his son's death.

Mohamed Benalel Merah has said he wants to bury his son, who reportedly had joint French and Algerian citizenship, in Algeria.

His accusation that the French authorities deliberately chose to kill his son rather than capture him has caused indignation in Paris.

"If I were the father of such a monster, I would shut my mouth in shame," said French Foreign Minister Alain Juppe.


Alain Juppe says it correctly. Getting shot by the sniper was the easiest Merah deserved. Sounds like the father may be deserving of similar.

Not much to go on but that father hardly sounds like he is ashamed of his son's conduct. He'll be lucky if they ship the entire family off to Algeria for good measure and don't let the boat sink halfway there as an object lesson.

[Gusington]

I have a new respect for the French Foreign Minister. Well said.

[Centurion40]

Amen.

The sad thing is that this *could* spark Parisian riots. The outer arrondisements of Paris are largely impoverished and largely Muslim immigrants (many from Tunisia and Algeria). If they feel like the police went over the line or they sympathize with this guy's message, it could be a replay of those last Paris riots. Hopefully it will not. I haven't heard any rumblings of this so far, but that Father needs to keep his mouth shut, like the Foreign minister said.

...the more riots in the Banlieues - based on this events = sympathy  for a homegrown islamic terrorist -  the better
because this would gave at least a slim chance that the silent majority finally wake up and force the politicians to change immigration and naturalization laws ... better on the European scale.

so that
1. Citizenship to old and future  naturalized citizen is on a 25 years parole (the law works retroactively too) 

2. Offspring of immigrants get the citizenship only at a age of 18 and only on a 10 years parole.

3. Citizenchip can be revoked if criminal record reach a certain to be defined threshold. And if a second citizenship exits even faster. 

4. Immigrant partents can be kept more accountable for their fail of parenting of their offspring -> revoke of citizenship (cause its on 25years parole) and expatriation

5. Expatriation of criminal elements are faster and easier to achieve. lesser appeal possibilities at higher courts
