Things are calm right now, protest became a street party for a little while to let people rest up before marching more. #ActeXXVIII #Acte28 #GiletsJaunes
This march seems to be wrapping up, I think the police and the yellow vests kinda kept their distance to save their strength for tomorrow. So thankfully no injuries today. #ActeXXVIII #Acte28 #GiletsJaunes
Again, it's fucking bizarre that there was almost zero police presence today. I only saw about a dozen riot cops and another half dozen cops in street gear
So I saw video of tear gas being used over by Republique. Just got off the metro and even a few blocks away it stinks like the shit. #GilesJaunes #ActeXXVIII
Still stinks like tear gas but the area is totally locked down now. #GilesJaunes #ActeXXVIII
Cops just gassed the crowd again, managed to wait till the police allowed crowds back in and now this.
#GilesJaunes #ActeXXVIII
Cops moving more riot cops in, so it's a standoff between about a thousand protesters and a couple hundred riot cops. #GilesJaunes #ActeXXVIII
So right now it's a never ending game of cops tear gassing the crowd, people running then throwing the gas back. Rinse my eyes and repeat. #GilesJaunes #ActeXXVIII
So I've gotten gassed about 5 times in the past hour or so. #GilesJaunes #ActeXXVIII
The riot cops are trying to tighten the perimeter with closing in on the crowd now. #GilesJaunes #ActeXXVIII
So the police have the whole area on lockdown again, they're not letting people out. So it's a giant temporary kettle more or less. It's given some people panic attacks so far #GiletsJaunes #ActeXXVIII

So the police used walls of riot cops and an LRAD (and maybe a grenade) to force everyone into the metro to leave the area. Now everyone is riding out on the same train to escape with some happy chants. #GiletsJaunes #ActeXXVIII
So the protesters got out of the metro a Bastille. The group has already taken the streets again outside the metro. Using bodies and construction equipment to block roads. #GiletsJaunes #ActeXXVIII
So I needed a breather after getting gassed and LRAD'D again. The riot cops came in force and chased protesters down side streets. I got out by taking a different street but I'm trying now to see if I can find them again. #GiletsJaunes #ActeXXVIII
Incase anyone is wondering, after getting hit with the LRAD again I feel the same way I did when I got hit with it back in 2014 during the Eric Garner protests. I feel like I'm bleeding out of every hole in my head and I feel like I'm doing backflips as I walk.
