Paris is burning, Day Eight

Schaudenfraude is an ugly, ugly emotion, and I admit it makes me feel sick that I am somehow deriving a smile from the contortions the French Government is putting itself through.

This is their Hurricane Katrina---the exposing of the urban poverty and repression and violence and hopelessness that the Euro Media rubbed our faces in eight weeks ago.

Payback's a bitch, aint it?

It's worse than Katrina. Some of the stories [cannibalism] were complete crap.

As opposed to France, which had no mention in the Houston Chronicle I could find today.

How could we expect the French to be cannibals, they're to busy feeding their young and everybody else to the wolves?

Just a return to the FRENCH REVOLUTION and the REIGN OF TERROR where they send hunderds to the guilotine including the king and queen
