#1 Can't get away with protesting in France so the protest here in the US. Well, at least they're protesting the French and not us this time.

#2 I saw one such protest yesterday on my Florida college campus. I think they could've done better by getting non-Muslims involved. I happen to think the Muslims are right on this one; there are massive Islamist problems that France must address, but instead Chirac is ignoring the real issues and boldly tackling the hijab. Even if he succeeds, it won't do anything useful, and all it'll do is piss a whole bunch of people off. Stupid, useless maneuver. Typically French.

#3 I hope that the FBI gets lots of digital facial images of these folks to add to the Islamonutcase database. Can't be too careful, ya know. PC can kill.
