Unprecedented tragedy. It is also a tragedy of French people who have become rooted in the society that is far far from perfect. It's a society that is entrenched in special interests, arbitrary rules, bogus leaders, and other numerous ills, such as anti-Semitism and general snobbery. They pretend that France is sophisticated, and yet they allow something like that to happen. Excuse me, but Dutch would do better job saving Amsterdam's red light district.
