Senior French politicians have been accused of "blatant racism" after linking the suburban riots to polygamy among African immigrant families.
The head of the ruling centre-right party in the national assembly and an employment minister both suggested unruly teenagers from large, polygamous families had helped to cause the four-weeks of violence in the country's poor suburbs.
Link.
Could be. Heck, serial polygamy in our inner cities contributes to riots now and then.
