wow thats terrible..

Ugh.

i think the headline should say "graffitied", not gratified.... right?

Thanks YY. Silly spell check.

That is so awful. How can people be so hateful? It must be an awful life.

I said awful twice...

thats how awful it is mich..

WOW!

Soldiers? People fighting for your freedom, safety, and rights!

France is one of the most racist and hypocritical countries of the western world - this incident is just another to the list.

The government can pretend to be shocked and disgusted by this, but it is their racist policies that lead to this.

I wish that they would just stop pretending to be so accepting and fair minded and spare us all, don't let minorities in, don't let jews or Muslims in, and don't give citizenship to anyone who doesn't speak french as a first language - that way we can avoid all their BS laws.

That is very sad. Hate is so ugly.

It is awful awful. I imagine this kind of hostility will continue until we learn to listen to and respect each other.

Shocking and disgusting! Why do people so waste their time and energy on such ugly hate?

Absolutely disgusting. Those gravemarkers are beautiful, though.

ohh my, people have no respect. This is just sad.

Disgusting. I wonder what's wrong with people sometimes.

this is tragic, those who did this should be publicly humiliated.

This is terrible. I just hope there aren't any over-the-top retaliations.

Yea that's pretty terrible. Not. Cool.

This is awful, sad, disrespectful, etc, etc, etc... I just can't come up with enough words to describe this.

That's beyond disgusting. Something is really wrong in this country right now.

Sadly, i don't think this is getting out of nowhere. The situation between religious communities is very tense lately here. By the way the governement is acting, it's probably not gonna get any better

this is really sad and disgusting. :{

zeze, your comments could be considered racist themselves. it isn't france that did this, it was a group of racists in france. i'm not saying that you are being racist yourself, but generalizing like that can be considered racist.

This is definitely a horrible act. I hope they are able to remove the graffiti without harming the headstones.

This kind of crap disgusts me.

Very, very juvenile.

otaku - I should clarify, I was not referring to "French people" like the US, and everywhere else, there are good and bad, accepting and hateful people.

I was referring to France's (what I consider) racist policies that are hypocritical and create hate within people - such as forcing Muslim women and Jewish men to either go to private school, drop out, or not freely follow their religion. Or their policies in denying citizenship to people of different lifestyles because they are not "french enough."

Imo, these policies, along with many others, allow hate to expand and become acceptable. If wearing a head scarf is bad by national policy (which how it is seen when laws prohibit it) then the people doing it become bad and then stupid people act on that notion and the end result is actions like this.

Zeze, I'm glad you clarified! I was a little offended by the original comment as well, but I see what you mean now. And I definitely agree.

Ya, I was power-typing (hehe) once I reread it I saw I wasn't making the point I meant to make.

sorry...

zeze, thank you for clarifying. i definitely know how it feels to type in the heat of the moment. it's nice though, that we have a community where we can give opinions, ask about others opinions and clarify everything as well. :}

this is so disrespectful.

Awful.

Disgusting. Hatred, unfortunately, really has no limits.

That's horrid. I'd like to think this is the work of a handful of neo-nazis but I know better. Lepen and his party are huge there and this is the result.

I have no words. Just disappointment.

I just love the news these days.

I hope they catch the people who did this and they get some jail time. Respect is something that is not taught much anymore.
