France Revisited

French Violence
Quite apart from considerations of Islamic Fascism, one can't help but recall the sneers directed at the U.S. by Europeans during the Civil Rights movement in the U.S.
The U.S. was castigated as ignorant, racist and beneath contempt. This by a Europe which was racially homogeneous by U.S. standards. As the racial component has grown, so has the racism. Sneering does little good, however, so I'll just wish them well as they seek their own way out of a difficult situation.
