    “Watching these images, we have all asked ourselves how could French people do this to France?”

    It’s almost like people were protesting the system its self… like they feel under represented or something.

      anyone who asks that question, especially of French citizens, has brain damage and is unfit to ask more questions.

    I love how the article seems to equate “failure of the state” with police running out of ammo and not ending the violence quickly enough. Not the decades of policies that led to thousands of people feeling like they need to destroy infrastructure.

    They keep alluding to migrants being the violent ones, am I understanding this correctly? Also they mention this was organized crime basically? Any facts to back that up?

    I’m wondering how they actually plan on addressing the root issue here of wealth inequality and cost of living issues… The country’s finances are not doing well from what I can see…

        That’s what I was thinking… This article at least twice alludes to it being gangs of migrants or something doing this…

        Seems a bit too convenient of an excuse if you ask me…
