Must be those angry Anglicans again

IHT - Michele Alliot-Marie called the Sunday afternoon attack an "ambush," saying that about 30 people, some of them armed, were waiting for the officers in the southern Paris suburb of Grigny. The officers were responding to a call about vandalism at a local bakery. Three officers were hit in face with buckshot; another was hit in the leg with buckshot and nails and was hospitalized, Sunday's statement said. In November, rioting youths in another Paris suburb opened fire on police, injuring at least 10. That attack in Villiers-le-Bel fueled fears of a repeat of riots that raged across France's neglected suburbs for three weeks in November 2005. Authorities have said youths organized a system to target police with gunfire.

Holy nelly folks, I guess the likes of Steyn were just jerking us around with talk of war in the streets of Europe. Usually the thugs and scum are only brave enough to shoot and fight tooth and nail when cornered or trying to escape. It's not normal behavior for them to be organizing ambushes for the police and targeting them openly and with deadly force. It's on for young and old folks, well actually just the young and they don't happen to have much respect for the old Europe that wouldn't change course.
