All the standard rioting stuff only this is in the high dollar and tourist areas: over gas prices!

I've been watching this.
It's not Muslims...it's the FRENCH FARMERS.
Those Good Old Boys are quite irritated that their gas price will go up
over $7 per LITER due to the new taxes by Macron....it's almost $6 now.
Just to clarify, 3.78 Liters to a Gallon.
So you can see why they're a bit put out about the rise in the gas tax.
Just imagine if you had to pay $24 a GALLON. You'd be burning stuff too.
Shucks, if gas ever reached $10 a gallon, there would be a revolution here.
They'd be hanging Democrats from lightpoles!
Straight out of the Socialism playbook...
Tax the BLEEP out of everything that makes the country go,
Make everyone totally dependant on Gov't.
Control everyone and everything in the way you want.
On the other hand, it's entirely possible France is about to see
it's Second Revolution...and as usual, it's over insane taxes.
Break out the Guilliotine, I'll bring the chips & dip!!

It's really not over gas prices. It's over taxation and the governments attempt to scam the populous into believing that an additional tax on gas and other fuel would show the world that France was committed to lower their carbon footprint. However the citizens recognized this latest assault on their pocketbooks is nothing more than a government move to steal more money from the populous by trying to sell the move as being environmentally motivated. This kind of BS is more commonly known as "The straw that broke the camel's back.
Not only are the riots having an effect on France but also Germany, Italy and Sweden. These countries are fed up with the crime and the violence brought to them in the form of Muslim migrants. The citizens are demanding the government physically remove the new residents. Several Mosques have been burned to the ground.
Yesterday the Yellow Jackets closed down the airports, schools, railways, grocery stores, financial institutions, and government facilities. It looks like the riots are far from being over. The citizens of France appear to be determined to take their country back from the current liberal government. Macron blinked and said he favored postponing the new tax for six months but citizens say, they're not buying it and the riots will continue until Macron steps down. Has anyone noticed how little coverage is being given to this story in our Main Stream Media. They and their handlers are scared to death that the movement could gain traction here in the states.
This is your first post on a gun forum? Situation Normal All F#$ked Up is your name General? Where and when did you serve Sir? I smell a troll!
Thanks for your warm and friendly welcome to the group. No, it's not my first post on a gun forum. So what makes you say, I'm a troll? Are you by any chance the official troll sniffer for this forum? I ask because, you're obviously not an internet sleuth.
