Quick France Update

The protest/riots continue to go on at full speed even as Chirac promises to water down the bill. Sarkozy's efforts to be a flip-fop and become the hero of the rioters seems to be working.

I just heard on French TV that more police have been injured than in the 2005 Islamists riots. Maybe because those were well organized efforts while this is just random acts of violence by spoiled kids.
