A reminder about Paris etc. Rioting is fun. Anyone who doesn't grasp this is simply ignorant of the youthful male psyche. Out in the healthy fresh air with your mates. Throw a few cobbles at the gendarmes, burn a bus or a building. It's all good clean fun. Maybe not so much for those who get caught by les flics but the war wounds will be a wonderful conversation piece for decades to come.
No, really, once it's all kicked off - for whatever reason - it's fun.
A useful prediction is that it'll all die down on Wednesday. For those trying to manage riots pray for rain - it's all markedly less fun, this out with the mates, when you're getting wet.
Sorry about this but blokes, young blokes, are just like this.
