Different From Us: The french

Yeah, I feel dirty even reporting this. Why won't the French just die or something?

I don't know if you've heard the story so I'll recap briefly. On New years eve a group of thirty *hah* racially unspecified *hah* youths boarded a train and went on a rampage. I'll let "Winds Of Change" pick up the story...

The French Train Rampage You Haven't Heard About

What story is that? Only that a pack of about 30 'youths' - specifically, young men apparently from the banlieus and at least in part of north African (Moroccan) descent - got on a train at Nice and proceeded to rob, beat and sexually assault passengers.

The French police arrived at the Les Arcs station but refused to enter the train because no formal complaint had been lodged. Passengers were afraid of retaliation so did not complain formally. One person who was at the station says the 20 year old female was sexually assaulted - from the wording, it would appear "gang raped" - while the authorities waited outside.

I'll wait while you digest that. An eyewitness says that the police DID NOT INTERVENE while a young woman was gangraped by these thugs, because they'd didn't have a formal complaint.

Have your breath back yet? Okay let's go on ....

Passengers outnumbered the youths 20 to 1, but not one intervened or fought back, either to protect themselves or the young woman being assaulted. That might be due to the death threats sreamed by the gangs at those who called police on their cell phones.

However, according to No Pasaran reader Andre Thiele, who was at the station, the authorities DID hasten to remove all evidence of the event from the station and no French media outlet carried the story until a German paper broke it later.

I will ask what I've asked before here at Winds of Change: where is the outrage by western feminists about the rape of young women by gangs of young men coming from immigrant and at least culturally, if not actively religiously, muslim backgrounds???????

I assume we can all see the obvious lesson here?

An armed population is a very bad thing, good to know.

Thanks for leading the way here France, y'all make me sick.
