French Students Burn Down Schools to Protest School Decay

Student 'blockades' ostensibly called to protest the dilapidated condition of French high schools have degenerated into an orgy of urban violence in which those same schools have been destroyed, says John Rosenthal.

Student 'blockades' (blocus) ostensibly called to protest budgetary insufficiencies and the dilapidated condition of French high schools have degenerated into an orgy of urban violence in which those same schools have been attacked and destroyed. The violence has also included destruction of other property, pillaging of stores and attacks on school personnel, police and simple bystanders.

Students are clearly involved. There are even videos circulating presently of angry parents coming to drag their children home. But numerous French reports citing school sources attribute some of the most serious violence to outsiders.

Thus, a teacher at the Lycée Chevrollier in Angers was attacked with an iron bar and badly injured on Thursday after several people broke into the school. Sources interviewed by the local news outlet Angers-Info said that assailants were not students at the school. Likewise on Thursday, the Headmaster of the Lycée Ambroise-Brugière in Clermont-Ferrand was hit in the head by fireworks fired from the crowd of 'protesters' assembled in front of the school. According to a school official cited in the local media, however, the perpetrators were a group of outsiders who had joined the protest and were “wearing surgical masks and ski masks”.

A picture accompanying the report from the local affiliate of France3 public television shows a Palestinian flag, for some reason, in the midst of the crowd assembled outside the high school in Clermont-Ferrand. (See below.) Palestinian flags as well as Antifa flags are also visible in other imagery from the '

The Unholy Muslim-Marxist Alliance is planning to turn the West into Haiti, whose downfall began when the Ethnic African Haitians massacred all the White People on the island.

Not one person in that photo made any attempt to help that poor man. Truly shocking.

This is truly disturbing but having French relatives who have already fled the country it is not surprising. They saw the writing on the wall 15 years ago. The only one who is left is my sister-in-law but she lives in a small village. Even there she says that security precautions are top of the agenda because roaming migrants appear from nowhere. She just keeps a shotgun handy, a luxury most Brits don’t have!

As an aside, I see that Burnham’s idea of forcing online media to promote the BBC and other state organs is bearing fruit. I keep being bombarded by the political crap they produce. It doesn’t matter how many times I click the dislike button they keep reappearing like a bad case of herpes. The latest that keeps popping up is Ian Hislop peddling propaganda as to how people are influenced negatively by the right. When asked if Britain is broken he obviously said no. I regret even watching it for even a few minutes but to me it simply proves that Hislop has always been an extreme left wing propagandist who through humour (many years ago, but not now) has infiltrated his way into the BBC… Read more »

Anarchists don’t care one jot about who they hurt or harm whilst they are having their fun, and that’s exactly what it is for them – fun

These dangerous people should be met with an extreme police and/or army response. The guy with the flamethrower should have the exact same done to him, only for long enough for him to be reminded of it every time he looks in the mirror.

They aren’t anarchists, they’re just stupid people being manipulated, as usual.

in fact, they are the opposite of anarchists.

an archos – without leader. Learn the roots of your language.

Everyone should aspire to be an archos, it would prevent most of this sh*t.

Actually, I have noticed that they do care who they hurt – I’ve watched quite a few videos and all their victims are white. Here’s one where they back off when they who they’re against:

Prof Betz identified that the coming civil war was most likely to kick off in France or Ireland.

I expect he’s just ticked off another box.

If you think about it the French authorities are in a dilemma. On one hand they have to keep order but in reality it is the people they have imported for support who are causing the problem. Anyone with even a small amount of brain power has by now worked out that importing diverse ethnicities will only be united against one thing, their own masters who they now blame for whatever they want to complain about.

I’m watching the tv now, one segment was filming from the rioters side, the people rioting and some running away were laughing and seemed to be having a good time in the chaos. They didn’t look very French to me. So the only thing that unites these people is their hatred of the very authorities and people who have been promoting them. I really can’t see this ending in a good way.

Probably ‘mainly peaceful’ arsonists. But, where are all those ‘brave gendarmes’?

Just send in the army, first with rubber bullets then with live ammo.
The barbarians are inside the walls and every leftard politician for 30 years has actively been shipping them in.
It will be the same here shortly with so many ghettos and black gang culture taking over British cities.

You’re assuming the establishment are not going to side with the “protestors”.

Clearly they are, given the way establishemnt media is reporting it. They’re going with the line that these hoodlums represent legitimate grievances.

Anyone who thinks the establishment is going to do a 180 and suddenly admit they’ve overdone it with immigration and need to change course is delusional.

These.people never back down, never admit mistakes.

It is many times more likely that some white native person who says something a bit edgy about the protectors ends up with a 10 year prison sentence.
