Why did they burned things? Can they do peacefully protest?

On going now still? I thought protest was ended already

There goes Paris. 😒

It is an old French tradition: Today the Champs-Élysées are mainly a tourist attraction but still a symbol of wealth (most Parisians and French tourists rarely shop at stores on the Champs... because they can’t afford it).

😮

Also, they must have invested in face air filter companies given the need for them now.

Everyone should follow their Twitter hashtag to get to know what they believe . Rather then guessing threw news posts that may not care about it enough to do research?

sooner or later its bound to happen here.

Putin and Bannon back this

Are they bringing out the guillotines next? Protest is fine. Vandalism and violence are not!

No anarchists, socialists or communists there... just look away.

These are terrorists not protestere

*Russian backed yellow vests.
