In a horribly sick attack, immigrants, Muslims, I presume, ran onto a bus, sprayed it with gasoline and set it ablaze without first letting the people flee. France authorities acted promptly ... and had a meeting. They're sending in more riot police.
Three or four young people burst onto the bus and tossed in a bottle of flammable liquid before fleeing, police said, citing witnesses' accounts. A fire started, seriously injuring a 26-year-old woman who suffered second- and third-degree burns on her arms, legs and face.
The woman was breathing Sunday with help from a respirator, the Marseille hospital system said. Doctors were deeply worried about lung damage from smoke. Three other people also were treated for smoke inhalation, police said. The bus was destroyed, and bus service was suspended in Marseille.
h/t Instapundit - PJM has coverage on the rioting in Mexico. Heard on the news, Fox held back from sending forces into the area for months so as not to make thing worse. Is that a strategy, or a Democrat talking point? I'm so confused. I thought these were Nations that are fit to be judging us when it comes to Homeland Security?
Maybe not.
They can't be Muslims. They're les jeunes. It's an entirely new type of criminal, completely without identity, purpose, motive, or intent, simply defined by age, not ideology, religion or amorality. They are therefore innocent of everything except being young. They will, of course, rule France as they get older, and every other European country.

well if muslims, you wonder if they hate France so much why do they just don't go back where they came from and be happy. If it is another ideologic group their only future should be in prison.

But Dan, the world is a safe place, there's no reason for alarm.
There's nothing to fear.
Terrorism is a myth.

palpable frustration in france these days as french authorities face deeply troubling times, calling their manhood and the very future of glorious france itself into question....
