Whats the problem with those people? Why they burn cars?
Well, yes they are french and/or immigrants - very young most of the time - between 12 years old to 25 !
The problem with those people is quite complicated.
It's because of poverty, bad social integration, bad education, bad suburbs/housings, bad life level, (very) bad relationship with policemen, because those youngs are angry about Mr Sarkozy and what he said, what he represents (authority).
It's also because here in France, in our suburbs, some youngs do not manage to integrate themselves. They are often in a school failure situation and have problem with parental authority. So those youngs are bored all the day, all the year. Finally, they are burning cars because they think it's funny or because they are angry, without any reference mark. For them, it's easier to earn money by dealing some drugs than working for peanuts.
And it's a long old french 'feature' to express our dissensions with the State by going to the street.
Unfortunately, there are always some idiots to break shop-windows, burn cars.
What a sad report but well it's the reality.
It's not a majority,
France is a quiet country -
except in some suburbs like in most countries.
