Socionomics Watch—Burka Rage

Apparently the Arizona immigration law is having a worse affect on French people.
France has first 'burka rage' incident

When social mood is high, people are open to new experiences and cultures. When the mood is low, the opposite is true. Considering there was quite a bit of anti-immigration sentiment building in Europe and the United States before the turn in social mood (in the same way that stocks and housing went into a bubble, in a sense so did immigration), so too will the reaction against immigration go much further than people expect.

France is working on a law to ban burkas, and if the elections continue to move in the current direction in the U.S., the Arizona immigration law may be proposed as national law by a new Congress next January.
