BREAKING: WATCH: Paris: A group of French police officers remove their helmets to show solidarity with the French people against President Emmanuel Macron, as anti Macron protests continue throughout France.

Nah, it’s just french soldiers/police/security surrendering again
I’m just kidding. Good for them if they are in solidarity.
Now storm the Bastille.
Or whatever the hell they need to storm these days over there.
What’s the average muzzie there thinking?
Is the shooting part of the Global Warming War starting ?
"...removed helmets to show solidarity..."
You would have to pay me a lot of money to even consider living in France - even for a short period.
First, Fifi loses his boyfriend and now this! Adolph Merkel isn’t going to like this.
How much longer is Maclown going to last in France?
I have read elsewhere that some French firefighters are also showing solidarity with the protesters.
any of them survive?
I’ve been to Paris, twice. Hated it. Yes, there were some lovely buildings around, and nice bakeries, but it was covered in dog-poop, and aggressive Africans trying to pick your pocket.
Awful place.
I would gauge the real start of the original French Revolution as when the soldiers turned their guns on their officers and joined in the insurrection. This, symbolically, is the same thing. It would be increasingly dangerous for Macron or any other official to order the police to do anything at all against the protesters.
During an earlier revolt in about 1905 a Russian soldier told the Tsar, “Either you order us to fire (on the mob) or you abdicate.” It looks as though Macron may face that decision. And, when it comes, it’s up in the air who the soldiers fire at.
When the soldiers on both sides lay down their guns, it’s a bad sign for political class. This could well happen in Kalifornia. Gov elect Newsom is a globalist commie on steroids. People need to quit fleeing that state and just take it back.
And ambulance drivers.
It looks like we might be seeing troops in action sooner rather than later.

If you want a shooting war, that’s the way to do it.
The thing is...especially with the diesel tax ‘bump-up’ (29 cents per gallon)....with 70-percent of French people owning a diesel car...it’s an outrageous tax. Cops, firefighters, regular people....they are all affected. Why would you stand and oppose the riot?
I don’t see the tax surviving. If Macron continues on and talks about meeting people face-to-face....he has no desire to delete the tax. The riots will continue through spring and possibly affect the EU election in June 2019, my prediction.
We went there two years ago. My pocket was picked. In Norte Dame. No bathrooms anywhere. Worse that Peru. Horrible traffic.
