Man harpooned in brawl over photo of women in burkinis in Corsica: Fracas between North Africans and
Daily Mail ^ | 8/14/16 | Alexander Holmas and Sara Smyth

Hatchets and harpoons were thrown in a beach brawl that broke out after a tourist was seen taking pictures of women wearing burkinis in Corsica.

The fracas between a group described as North African ‘Muslim families’ and local youths broke out a day after a ban on the head-to-toe swimsuits was upheld by a judge in Cannes.

A tourist was seen taking pictures of women wearing the full-body swimwear on a creek near the village of Sisco on the French island.

When the bathers objected, a group of local teenagers are said to have come to the photographer’s defence.

Local reports said that the group of North African men armed themselves and took on the young Corsicans. One man was hit by a spear-like weapon and a pregnant women was taken to hospital with injuries.

...

The unrest in Corsica, which lasted several hours, escalated when the teenagers’ parents rushed from their village to the beach where two of them were then injured with harpoons. In retaliation, villagers then set fire to cars belonging to the bathers, it is claimed.

The should instead ban radical Muslims and so-called refugees. The burkini looked rather harmless.

I decided to Go ogle the words “jesus” and “harpoon” together. That’s what I got.
