French rioters are immigrant Muslims (12/1/07, not in CCTimes)

I’m not sure what the Contra Costa Times is covering up, but they’ve yet to explain who it is that is rioting in France and what exactly are they doing as they “riot.” So we’ll tell you: 

• Regional police chief is beaten with baseball bats and an iron bar to the face on the night the riots started. This left him with broken ribs, a punctured lung and fortunately, only a bruised and bloody face.
• A policeman on the same night lost an eye to pellets from a shotgun.
• Another policeman has a hole in his shoulder from a bullet that went through his body armor.
• A total of 130 policemen have been injured, including some by nails fired from a home-made bazooka.
• A local police station, nursery school, school gym and library were burned down.

PS: Reuters tries to explain their cover-up here.

  The Contra Costa Times is the most influential media in the county. As such, it leans left. The media should be unbiased and we use this site to point out the error of their ways. Enjoy.
