France could've stopped those riots 30 minutes after they started. Instead, corrupt government officials allowed them to linger on...as a way to terrorize their population. Like our government did in 2020.

The French haven’t had the stomach for that kind of thing since about 1916.

WWI took out the flower of French manhood, as my professors put it, and what is left today is generally the spawn of those who didn’t serve.

That is an interesting take, television. Genes matter and can overcome cultural rot and delusion.

Deportation is the only answer.

And since HIllary and Obama caused the great migration into europe deportation to their neighborhood is the best.

Convincing one of two opposing side that we will support them and instigate confrontation with the other which results in wrecked countries and countless lost lives.





The US is not the knight in shining armor it believes it to be. That flag doesn't stand for freedom.


When people wake up and come to the realization that, this country no longer works for us but, rather, we work for it, hearts and minds will change.



As far as the churches being burnt down, I feel more compassion for the average Joe who loses their home to a fire.

That beautiful ancient 16th-century Catholic Church, burnt to the ground - a lost treasure. I hope the Priest was able to remove our Eucharistic Jesus from the Tabernacle before the flames consumed the Church Sanctuary. I assume it was still an active parish with Holy Mass still celebrated.

My heart aches for France. France is the home of my favorite Saint - Carmelite Saint Therese of Lisieux - The Little Flower. There are others, but she is my favorite.

I should mention the magnificent Cathedral of Notre Dame. I always saw beautiful churches as a sign of the faithful's effort to create a little Heaven on earth-a place to worship and experience peace amid beauty and magnificence. That's how I believe Heaven will be for us who persevere - rapt in the beauty of God and Heaven.

I pray for France and her people.

God is Mercy, Affirmation and Life - satan is death

So not a word of acknowledgment from the faculty-loungers about the Crusades, 100 Years War, 30 Years War, the wars of Louis XIV. Then Napoleon himself was responsible for the culling of over 600,000 of France's best men.

The World Wars were just the final cultural/genetic coup de grace.

How could such a small country survive that.

It's why their women have been going for what they are for so long.

Felt privileged to have been in the presence of her white casket decorated with roses when it was brought to St. Dominic's church during the relic Tour of 1999.

The main aisle was strewn with roses. Quite the memorable evening.

It was an atmosphere that was unique, different from other exhibits we've ever attended here.

Comforting in the presence of an image of such gentleness and humility.

Knew it was a one-time opportunity that would likely never happen again.

So pleased we made the effort to attend.

France and Germany are quickly learning that allowing Muslims to storm into their countries was not a smart move.

Belgium, England, Sweden are beginning to see the same thing.



But it's too late. The Arabs are reproducing at a far greater rate than whites and in 2-3 generations, they'll all be under Sharia Law.

It's not as though their own countryman Jean Raspail didn't give them enough of a dire warning in his book which in so many ways exceeds in accuracy anything by Nostradamus.

Obviously none took heed for whatever politically correct, progressive-inspired reason.

But "the prophet is never recognized in his own house."

I saw something similar in NYC when an Episcopal Church in Queens burned. There were a couple of Muslim looking young men in the street looking very excited and happy about the fire. The church offer child care to anyone including Muslim children.

Very sad. Aside from it being a church, a building that old is simply historic by its very presence.


Not making light of it at all but a 500 year old church in France is not particularly remarkable nor really that old. Almost every town in France has a church that old or older many of them going back to the 5th/6th century after King Clovis I embraced Catholicism. I read an article the last time I was in France that talked about the churches, this is separate from the actual vandalism of churches in France. There were about 15k churches under French historical building protection but there were 30k more that were ancient (by US terms) that were not protected and many of them had fallen into serious disrepair to the point of just falling down.

Catholic Charities probably helped the illegal migrant who burned it down get into France. Did you know Catholic charities gets more government funding than planned parenthood in the US? Someone has to pay for those cell phones illegals get upon entering the US.

That’s a BS story about the US churches. We have more than 20,000 catholic churches in the USA. We are going to have some of them vandalized every year regardless of whether or not there is a growing animus against Catholicism.

The same sort of stats are ballyhooed by Muslims and Jews, BTW.

Not 70. 64.

They had to move it to 64.

From 62.

64.

And they rioted over it.

Well, when those events tend to have a common denominator... It becomes pretty easy to add 2+2 when you have 1/2 of a brain and actually choose to use it...

They can not tend to have a common denominator. They either do or they don't.
