France, all of Europe, needs to remember its proud heritage.

Thank you for the article. I’m kind of surprised the workshop she’s attending hasn’t been postponed. Too much non-refundable $$$ invested, I suspect.

Marseille was preparing for its Pride march today, after many other big cities had it in previous weeks, but that has also been postponed.

Behind every cloud....

And could someone please explain 1.) how these with very little money each month 2.) have acquired automatic weapons, 3.) shown being fired (on Twitter) in France by rioters, due to 4.) extremely strict gun laws in France?

But, but, but or strength is our diversity!

Seriously this event should put an end to this vapid sloganeering from the left, but it probably won’t.

And the BBC says they were hunting rifles looted when the videos show automatic weapons being fired.

Thanks to the fact that the UK is now run by its Deep State, the fact that things are going south in France is not good news for the UK’s citizenry.

Several reports of police vehicles being looted, along with firearms taken from stores. I imagine some armed government agencies have had buildings looted at this point.

Add that to whatever arms were there illegally to begin with, and then read what the police unions are saying. They’ve been dealing with the Yellow Vest thing, protecting the Macron government, and now that their lives and the lives of their families are in danger, Macron is blaming video games and the military stands aside.

If the cops walk out will the French Military restore order?

“The French are arresting Muslims.! Don’t you just wish the cops and the politicians in OUR nation had the stones to do this..?”

I wish our politicians had the stones to keep them out in the first place.

I’d replace “probably” with “definitely” there.

Because a key belief all liberals have is: “This time it will be different.”
It doesn’t matter at all what the actual evidence is.

“Yes, these immigrants refuse to assimilate. They are rioting and causing great destruction. But we will continue to accept them. Because this time it will be different.”

Yep.

Sounds like Macron is reading a script the WEF has provided to him.

This looks like something way beyond the police already. Past time to deploy the military with live ammo. That's what it looks like it's gonna take.

From the article; No ammunition was stolen

A place were people don't know much about guns? What did they think a gun was going do without ammo.

This I guess.....
