Good effort! however I could not resist correcting a few phrases, I hope you don't mind me doing so!

* Veuillez brûler mon Citroen parce que c'est merde -
should be

(Veuillez bruler MA Citroen parceque c'est DE LA merde)

* Mes beaux citroen la voiture sont sur le feu !

should be

(MA BELLE Citroen EST EN FEU! )

* Vous avez cassé ma voiture et avez brûlé ma maison et chien, mais pourquoi pas vous tuez ma épouse laide avec ses aisselles velues?

should be

(Vous avez casse' ma voiture et brule' ma maison et MON chien, mais pourquoi N'AVEZ VOUS PAS tue' ma FEMME QUI EST MOCHE AUX AISSELLES POILUES?)
