In Paris, a policewoman was chased and thrown to the ground. In Nantes and Roubaix, high schools were set on fire. In Marseille, a fire truck was looted and then burned. Police officers, firefighters: those who protect us are being attacked. How much longer will this government let it happen? (translated)
The violence that is escalating today in front of many high schools in France is extremely worrying. It is unacceptable. Burning a high school, damaging a public establishment, attacking a teacher, a firefighter, or a police officer is not protesting. It is destroying and committing violence. Nothing can justify it. Nothing can excuse it. I understand the revolt of the French who work, who pay their taxes, and who see the public facilities they have financed and that their children need being degraded or going up in smoke. In a country that is already facing so many difficulties, destroying what belongs to everyone is truly outraging. Nothing can justify preventing those who want to study from accessing high schools either. The authors of violence and destruction must be identified and held accountable for their actions. There can be no complacency with those who break, burn, or attack. The cynical exploitation of high school students by LFI and the political forces that want to fuel conflict is scandalous. Everything can spiral out of control very quickly. And any tragedy would inevitably be exploited by those who have an interest in social confrontation. Total support for the civil servants who carry out their missions with awareness, calmness, and professionalism. Recognition to all those who work to restore calm: parents, responsible trade unions, and all others. What we are experiencing gives a pretty clear idea of what the networks of an extreme left are preparing, which despises democratic rules and betrays republican values. (translated)
We repeat it once again: there are reasons to demonstrate all over the country, and in high schools without teachers, there are too! But I haven't seen nurses burning down hospitals, hitting doctors, or setting fire to fire trucks while complaining that people are dying in emergency rooms. The comparison with the Yellow Vests is also abusive. There is nothing related between crowds of hysterical teenagers (who take no social responsibility), who break and burn without any reaction from the public authorities, on the eve of a key electoral deadline, and a popular and good-natured social movement, composed of adult people, who were progressively pushed towards violence due to police violence and hundreds of serious injuries. This is probably an operation aimed at distorting the democratic process and justifying a lockdown of the country. Watch out for Article 16. (translated)
In France, student protests are causing extreme tensions, with a principal attacked and doused in gasoline in Marseille, while students block schools and universities across the country and a fire truck has been set on fire. (translated)

The right to protest in France has disappeared. The police, which should be there to protect and oversee the demonstrations, has become a means of repression and intimidation against those who dare to contest. From the Yellow Vests to firefighters and now to high school students. It is a SHAME. (translated)
