Far from being ended by the curfews, the riots in France are continuing, after more than two weeks. Using the "number of cars burned" scale, we can see that they are currently at 36% of peak strength (502 cars burned on 11/12/05, vs. a peak of 1,408 vehicles burned on 11/6/05).

Data Source: WikiPedia.
Due to missing data, data is estimated for -- Vehicles Burned: 10/28 and 10/31; and Arrests: 10/31 to 11/2, and 11/6.
Over the last three nights, over 200 arrests have been made each night, without slowing down the riots. How many total rioters must there be in order for over 600 of them to be arrested in three nights, without putting a dent in the number of cars burned per night? Over 2,400 arrests have been made in total so far, and still the riots continue.
Is this continued rioting the behavior of people who want jobs and a better life -- as claimed by MSM?
