Weekend in Paris
This time, authorities were more prepared, and made it more difficult for the rioters to do as much damage.
Most of the demonstrators have been peaceful. But the violent ones are determined to wreak havoc, and the Macron administration is determined to stop them.
Since neither the ‘authorities’ nor the public is to accept the truism that “You can’t have your cake and eat it too”… the pressure will continue to build. Future and massive violence is a certainty.
I’m still curious…are the Muslims sitting this one out until the city is either already in flames or the government crippled until they join in on the action? Or do they know that if they pop their heads above the parapet they’ll get their chopped off too?
It is interesting that–according to the pictures I have been seeing over the last several months–when Muslim “youts” come out to play and burn hundreds of cars in a night only firemen and some cops show up–not riot police, water canon, pepper spray, tear gas, or “tanks”–but when what appear to be non-Muslims, when average citizens show up and start trouble, tens of thousands of tough riot police, tear gas, pepper spray, water cannons, and what look like APCs–not tanks–are deployed–and used–by the government.
One might want to ask, just who it is that the government’s show of force is protecting, and from what?
there were over 100,000 yellow jackets on parade in La Belle France yesterday, 10,000 in Paris.
It is hard for me to believe this is a spontaneous outburst of public sentiment, lacking sponsorship and organization.
I do not know if Neo’s claim that most ‘demonstrators’ were peaceful is true or not. Paris was certainly violent, as before; what do we on this side of the pond know what did or did not happen in the smaller towns of France. Who will you believe? The NYT? AFP? Die Zeit? All with the same agenda and news twisted to suit!
A whiff of grapeshot next ?
Sobering question: can you imagine this level of anti-government violence, or the mention of “a whiff of grapeshot”, in ANY English-speaking country? Of course not… even broaching the hypothesis feels ludicrous.
Given that France is the emotional heart of the EU, what if it demonstrates through bloodshed that it cannot command the respect of its citizens? It would signal an EU-wide stampede for the exits.
“Washington National tower, this is inbound flight Fascism 001. Looks like once again we are going to have to divert to Europe.”
Now i prefer my popcorn hot air popped, a lot fewer aggies, and gives you a bit more control for the addition of things like home made butter from whole cream…
i do recommend a comfortable chair
after all, once the party starts, thats bout all you can do…
at BEST….
on another note…
maybe this will explain why women were kept out of politics
the more “in” they are, the more psychotically totalitarian the world becomes
if ya dont get them out, your gonna all be oppressed by their husbands and children

Manspreading on a plane: In the age of #MeToo, even the armrest is a gender politics issue.”
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
[not that Pound Me Too was a good name either…]
something the domesticated humans being replaced, yes replaced, read the UN document that openly says so, meaning, they tricked the ladies into removing their children from the universe to replace them with more cooperative people
All they had to do was trust the communists and socialists, you know, the people who loaded THEIR OWN PEOPLE into ovens, and also made camps and worked to death another 100 million of THEIR OWN PEOPLE… so why would OTHER PEOPLE beleive what they have for them is better than what they would do to THEIR OWN PEOPLE?
seems that women tend to follow whomever tells them what they want to hear, and what gives them permission… this over family, love, decent peoples judgements and more…which could explain a lot of the keeping them away from things if they are so suggestible you can get them to wear underwear outside their clothes, debase themselves, celebrate the fantasy of being a prostitute to success, oh, and have articles for their daughters on anal leakage caused by trying to snag one of the very very few elite men who could get into college so they can quit (which is why we are now importing doctors too…) – dont worry, the kids they have are quite feral compared to the problem youths of Boys town, and a lot less desease (like the article that revealed the secret lives of women who seem all be screwing a few guys to death with number sof partners in the 100s… ]
¯\_(?)_/¯
wait… after toilet seats being evil for being left down, and urinals being even more evil for validating the dominant masculinity each day, to armrests being a critical gender issue for equals… [dont foreget state aid to pay for tampons was critical too]… masculinity is now a mental disorder, and as such, all men cant serve in the miltiary and the women will just have to take their place… they are going to be very very very very very suprised if conflict is not light, cause outside of their incompetent feral unable kids, we will have to take them…
(?_?) – Women making crazy normal again…
Remember, this train has no brakes…

Muslim-area riots don’t actually threaten the established elites, particularly so long as they stay in their own neighborhoods, and if they don’t — it isn’t Macron’s house and car they are assaulting.
One good reason to take a taxi from DeGaulle Airport to Paris is the fact that the Metro stops in the Muslim banlieues and opens its doors. Besides, that is their “culture” and we should not be judging it.
The riots are spreading to Brussels and that should get the EU bureaucrats’ attention. Central Brussels looks like Beirut.
