France Riots: French Civil War 2
So for those who haven't been paying attention to the news, France is in shambles right now. French police killed a 17 year old Algerian boy called Nahel who had stole a car and was causing havoc, and seeing no other why to stop him the police used lethal force to take him down which caused massive outrage across the country, and now pretty much the whole country is experiencing chaos all over with it being now day five of rioting. The military has been called in, people have died, the Paris mayor's house has been attacked; mental stuff. They have even threatened to arrest the parents of the youths involved and Macron blames videogames for this behaviour for some reason in boomer fashion. I've been late to cover this story on this site so better now than never and I'll be attaching articles below for those interested in this story as it's a quickly developing one and I'd like to hear you peeps opinion on this in this thread.
