French Bus Burnings

When I read about the bus burnings in France last week, I figured it was only a matter of time before "the youths" stopped emptying the busses of passengers before setting them alight:

A group of teenagers set one bus on fire Saturday in the southern French port city of Marseille, seriously wounding a passenger. Three others suffered from smoke inhalation, police said.

No Pasaran says the wounded passenger was severely burned and is clinging to life. But never fear:

Six police were injured and 47 people were arrested, ministry officials said. Still the Interior Ministry described the night as “relative calm,” noting that up to 100 cars are torched by youths in troubled neighborhoods on an average night.

They're are on the verge of a busload of French citizens being burned alive and they call it "relative calm." Perhaps they're waiting for a "real" atrocity to do something about this problem. Or perhaps, there is nothing they can do. I'm afraid we're about to find out.
