i believe it's anti-war..but this makes no sense to me...looking for more info... and i still think it's funny that it's the FRENCH that are rioting... but maybe parisians are just that bad-ass?
"The violence, primarily the burning of cars, began as a protest over the deaths last Thursday of two North African youths who were electrocuted when they jumped over a fence surrounding a high-voltage electrical transformer. Some relatives and witnesses said the youths were running from the police, though the official account said the police were not pursuing them." - new york times
and there's this: "The troubles were triggered by the deaths of two teenagers electrocuted in a power substation where they hid to escape police whom they thought were chasing them. A third was injured but survived. Officials have said police were not pursuing the boys, aged 15 and 17." - cnn news
hmmmm....so they're saying the boys weren't being persued, yet i'm seeing alot of reports to the contrary. odd...
