French police have pepper sprayed at close range climate activists blocking roads in the capital Paris, before removing them by force.

The protesters, many of them students, were trying to draw government and media attention to climate change.

They complained that the police response was excessive considering that the protest was peaceful.

The protest happened as France baked in a heatwave, with temperatures in Paris around 33C (91F).

Gasoline is cheaper and more effective.

That reminds me of when my dad used to spray DDT in the yard! Got to get rid of the cockaroches!

At least the propellant in those spray cans was probably environmentally friendly..

Obviously having a job is really bad for the environment.

For the French, so is deodorant.

Blocking roads and possibly have people die who can't get to the hospital is not peaceful....good on the French for addressing this idiocy!!!

I hope that was organic pepper spray they used.

"The protest happened as France baked in a [late June] heatwave, with temperatures in Paris around 33C (91F)."

There! Fixed it.

Note that politically correct global warming alarmists in northern hemisphere still “hibernate” in the winter imo.

Good on the flics....got more balls than our pussified emasculuted cops. But they need to use a stronger spray-something that causes screaming pain and temporary blindness.

I love Water Cannons that have Pepper Spray mixed in.

That would be considered a hate crime in Charlottesville

I watched the vid and noticed that as well. They got sprayed and just sat there.

If they had used this there would have been a very different "effect."

It might be more effective to apply this to Climate “scientists.” But it’s good to see anyway! :)

[piasa]

do you hear the people sting?

Ninnies and numbskulls all, including the BBC. Paris is home of the "climate accord." Macron & Co. is already fully vested to control climate. His hand-picked von der Leyen at the head of the EU promises 55% reduction by 2040 and zero emissions by 2050. Watch and learn.
