      Haven’t heard of any death, but a second kid lost his hand to an anti-crowd grenade (“sting ball grenade” ?). Unlike the one from last week, this one did pick up the grenade that was on the ground.

      The city hall building from a relatively big city (Limoges) got burned to the ground, also. Apparently that’s about it, most of the rest was peaceful (with a few clashes here and there of course), but the government and the police are still trying to spin it against “those who seek chaos in spite of those who protest peacefully” (that’s the police, Macron, the police is the one seeking chaos)

      ETA: oh, actually a 22 y.o. guy threw himself off the arc de triomphe and died, but so far it seems like it was unrelated to the events themselves.

        We had big issues in Rouen because we got attacked by 200 Nazis coming from Norway and Sweden for a planned event, a kid was beaten up and a few adults had to get emergency medical care. Police gazed the peaceful protesters which allowed thieves to split and go unwatched. Police let them do because it’s good for them as the bad press means more money for them

          Of course the police sided with the Nazis! Who else would they side with?
