    No, but the site they were referencing looks legit. OTOH, I didn't see where it said it was a militia per se...just an armed citizen. :shrug:

    According to the government, armed citizens are the militia, except for ones who've been given special exemptions.

    According to the government, they also have to between 17 and 45. How do you know he's under 45? He looks kind of borderline to me.

    Well, he also might work in an industry that's exempted. In my state, legislators, gunsmiths, and those who weigh tobacco are exempt, along with workers in the lead (Pb) industry.

    And of course the existence of the militia implies a "militia reserve", where you end up for 15 years after you age out of the regular militia, which is great because then you get to run around with all the hot college co-eds who are also in the militia reserve forever or until they transition to the regular militia with a boob-ectomy.

    Sadly at age 53 I (many of us on WF) can out-shoot/out-perform/out-kill many of the Walmart fat-cart driving smart phone addicted pussies half my age, should an actual militia ever be needed. :( Something is wrong with this picture!

    The more Muslims we let in, the more we'll become like France, where they've had 17 police stations attacked in the past 15 days link (in French)

    Not being a French speaker, ya got anything a little more understandable? Preferably, something that makes at least some connection between these attacks and Muslims? As opposed to all those other groups that are known for attacking police stations in France.

    Oh, I'm sure mobs of Muslim youth have nothing to do with the attacks with Molotov cocktails and other weapons. They are, after all, followers of the religion of peace.

    You are aware that attacks on French police stations, many of which have nothing whatsoever to do with Muslims, are actually pretty commonplace?

    So you're saying that attacking police stations are just the French way of celebrating Bastille Day?

    and here's a translation.

    Funny, but I followed your link to the translated page, opened "find" under Firefox's "Edit" menu, and entered the word "Muslim", and it returned a finding of "Phrase Not Found". I tried several other spellings, and they too produced the result "Phrase Not Found".

    Curiouser and curiouser.

    That's because Muslims are never involved in the French attacks, nor the car burnings, nor any other types of crime in France. It's always just angry ethnic youths, probably Belgians or Lithuanians.

    So, you were just talking out of your ass, as usual. Good to know. I was fairly certain, but confirmation is always nice.

    Funny, but when I go back to that page, and enter "Lithuanians" into the "Find" window, it also returns a finding of "Phrase Not Found". Are you sure that you're not just entirely full of shit?

    It's Lithuanians, I'm tellin' ya. They constantly get upset over coming from a country the size of a postage stamp, and then they riot, light hundreds of cars on fire in the Paris suburbs, and attack any synagogue they can find.

    My French is good enough to read the "article", which is really just a list of incidents. At any rate, there is no mention of attacker identity or motivation. As usual, gturner embellishes a small truth with a large lie.

    In case you haven't kept up with events in France for the past two decades, the people who riot, burn cars, and attack police stations are "ethnic yutes." Normal French people just go on strike half the year, but that's not an option for the ones who don't have jobs in the first place.

    The press never comes out and says they're Muslims because "French law forbids distinguishing citizens or residents according to their faith."

    I'd just like to point out for everyone that gturner's linked to the French equivalent of stormfront. fdesouche is an extreme right racist blog that's endorsed by the President of the National Front.

    Bullshit. They do it all the time when discussing why they need to ban burkas and the like. The French are among the most vocal and straightforward of Europeans when it comes to their criticism of Muslims in general, and particularly of those who fail to assimilate.

    The French government doesn't know how many Muslims there are. They're not allowed to count.

    Time Article: Should France count its minority populations?

    Here's a report on a French riot

    The clashes involved Sudanese fighting Eritrean and Ethiopian migrants, with sticks, iron bars and stones.

    And of course Albanian gangs were at the heart of it.

    150 fighting with rocks and pipes and only three hurt? What kind of pussy fighting is that? Here in The South we have more casualties from a typical family picnic brawl - involving women!

    And what, exactly, does any of that have to do with your lies about "French law forbids distinguishing citizens or residents according to their faith" in news/police reports, such as stories about attacks on police stations? As in the Time article, such restrictions apply only to including ethnic data within national statistics. And Hell, your link from The Independent, filed from Paris, identifies ethnicities in every freakin' paragraph.

    It's highly relevant if you think the French National Front is the same as Storm Front. You see, as France becomes more and more dominated by Muslims, French gays will find that their once friendly neighborhoods are more and more like Saudi Arabia where public displays of gay affection might result (and have) in violent death.

    Now see, if instead of going "lies! It's all lies lies lies!" you could've just Googled the sentence I had in quotation marks (which was a clue).

    Hit #1, the Open Society Foundation, Muslims in the EU

    French law forbids distinguishing, or counting, citizens or residents according to their faith. However, estimates place the French Muslim population at between 3.5 and 5 million, representing 6.0-8.5 per cent of the total population (58.5 million).

    Hit #2, HelpMuslimsInFrance

    French Law Forbids Distinguishing Or Taking Statistical Data Of Citizens Or Residents According To Their Faith. As A Consequence, There Is No Official Statistical Data On Number Of Muslims In France. Most Of These Numbers Come From Other Organizations Through Surveys Relating To Race And Religion. Muslims Face Persecution In France In Everyday Life.

    Hit #3, Euro-Islam.info

    French law forbids distinguishing citizens or residents according to their faith. As a consequence, there is no official statistical data on number of Muslims in France.
