no this is not Venezuela this is not Russia this is not the middle east, this is Paris, maybe why you are most likely not hearing about it in the U.S

While buildings burn in Paris and all over France, the President Macron which a large portion of these protests are about is skiing right now.

It definitely seems like the rioters, looters, and arsonists came out in force today

the situation is getting out of hand, to say the least, as innocent bystanders are threatened by the fires that were started today.

I think today we have an example of what happens when a state tries to violently suppress protests where the reaction of the people will match the states.

it's important to note that there has been more arson and looting then what I have previously seen during the #YellowVests protests.

People are really angry with the cops who usually from the protests I've been to in Paris are the ones who start the conflicts.

let's call this what it is, this is war in the streets of Paris and all throughout the country between bankers, corp heads, media, government and police vs a significant amount of citizens that have had enough.

punching medics who are trying to help wounded people are just some of the events that lead to more fighting in the streets.

I should have gone to #Paris as a journalist, I'm sorry I didn't this time.

I couldn't find anyone to go with me to share resources and be there for me in case I got hurt. I still feel horrible about this and I apologize to everyone who depends on me for coverage.

with the weather getting better the water canons which is one of the most effective ways to disperse a crowd will only become less effective.

As I said before in December being in Paris from the early beginnings of these #yellowvest protests, THIS IS ONLY THE BEGINNING. This will only get worse from here and escalate to a European spring.

I strongly recommend you watch our playlist of the research and on the ground reporting, we did in #Paris investigating the #GiletsJaunes #YellowVest for important context that of course, the MSM will not report on.

please share this link
Someone should tell Macron that these are extremely poor optics as his country is in chaos.
