They are French. Several generations worth. Now what? Send them back to Versaille?
France Protest Riots this last week
- Thread starter Ron in Regina
- Start date
They should riot over important things, like sports.
There’s fresh video from this morning within the last couple of hours with inspirational CNN type music, but is it old footage (?), and the riots (or protests) have quieted down (?), or are they still burning other people’s stuff with a side of looting?
Trying to find some news coverage outside of Europe (or Canada or the US) on this for different perspectives, and found a couple of somewhat opposing viewpoints:

Well, like the young (17yr old) man in question, France doesn’t have “Criminal Records” before someone turns 18yrs old, so the consequences are, from the fires and riots and looting, less Libraries and Health Clinics and so on in these neighborhoods, where these people would’ve lived because they probably weren’t commuting to burn down other peoples neighbourhoods (?) or maybe they were?
The French have a reputation for being arrogant. This is the result I guess. Did they just "assume" that the immigrants would automatically integrate? Fools!
My g/f who lives in Germany said that the citizens were really upset with the government when they let all the immigrants in and provided them with absolutely everything at the expense of Germans.
She told me about how the Germans were offering food & water to the immigrants when they initially came into the country, just as the French did. A lot of the immigrants refused to accept what was offered and/or threw away a lot of what was being given to them. The Germans were welcoming but the immigrants were very unappreciative, complaining about living conditions that were being paid for by the Germans & how Germans were forced to leave their apartments to go elsewhere so as to accommodate the immigrants; how gyms & parks were closed to citizens because of the immigrants etc.
Her dad was in a care facility & she had to make arrangements for him to go elsewhere as the facility was being emptied so that renovations could take place for the immigrants. She said she had a hell of a time trying to find someplace else for her dad that would be able to accommodate his needs. He's since passed away but how many others were affected in the same way.
Unfortunately, governments world-wide take actions without determining the consequences of said actions down the road and so everyone has to suffer because they couldn't take the time to figure out that maybe they shouldn't allow millions of immigrants into their country without knowing where they'd go and how they were going to be integrated. Maybe it should have been thousands instead so they could properly deal with the influx. But no, just open up the borders & let nature take it's course (so to speak).
Most of the "darkies" in France were born French in France or a colony.
This isn't migrants. They're French.

Funny part is 100 years or so ago Black Americans (who could afford it) loved hanging out in Paris because they didn't get abused nor harassed.
I did. Sorry you didn't.Huh who knew that 100 yrs ago there were privileged blacks!
Slavery was over by then. There were business owners who could've afforded to send their kids to Universities in Europe, so yeah, privileged blacks would've been affluent and educated.Huh who knew that 100 yrs ago there were privileged blacks!
Same was true during slavery. Not all Black people were slaves. Free Blacks could amass some wealth.
