Paris, FRANCE – There have been at least 40 attacks on police stations, 270 officers have been wounded, and more than 3,000 rioters have been arrested as violence rocked numerous cities in France for the fifth night in a row following the officer-involved shooting of a Muslim teen.

The riots began in Paris and its suburbs but have spread to other cities and towns across the country.

The violent protests also spread to French-speaking areas in Switzerland and Belgium, according to The Telegraph.

Rioters in Belgium have torched cars and used fireworks as weapons against law enforcement officers who are trying to quell the violence, the Express reported.

Mainstream media in Europe and the United States have largely ignored the violent, immigrant-led riots and referred to them as “unrest,” and French President Emmanuel Macron has blamed the chaos on social media, video games, and bad parenting.

But there are rumors that French military leaders have told Macron to get the violence under control before they step in and handle it.

There are reports that most of the rioters are Muslim immigrants who are targeting Christian and conservative residents of the country.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron’s cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

— C.S. Lewis

Thanks for re-posting that C.S. Lewis quote; I was recalling it when I posted my rant.

I dont know how it got posted three times, but i’d recommend the third, since it is probably the most accurate reflection of my sentiments
