Eiffel Tower to close Saturday due to planned 'yellow vest' protests in Paris

Maybe you should propose a game plan here.

They have to rush the officers that are against them or like they say, just taking orders. They woke up to find that their worst fears were true. Their president gave the UN the open borders UN over migration to their country which they now have to pay for the working class men and women of France. There are firefighters, famers, truck drivers ect on the left and right of middle class and lower saying NO.

This is Luke, he is over there and it's worse than we think.

Europe is the globalist testing ground for what the elites want to import into North America. They want the common man and woman returned to serfdom.

Isn't it ironic that these people pushing this open border stuff including their president claimed using teargas in combat is inhumane and bad for the air, are now using it on their own people. It's also a lot stronger than what Trump used at our border.

It's true... some westerners seem to care more about foreign immigrants than they do about their own countrymen.

I've asked our resident Democrats if they'd be willing to consider "amnesty" for American taxpayers who owe the IRS money they way they offer up amnesty to immigrants who enter the US illegally. Strangely, they did not take me up on my offer.

Update- More than 1000 arrested this weekend.

Protests in Paris are annual events. Typically they are the lower classes and immigrants burning their own neighborhoods on the outskirts of Paris. Paris is one of the rare cities where the core is where the rich live and then the middle class, then the poor outside of the core.

They are protesting on the Champs-Elyses Avenue- for those who have been, it is the swanky shopping district. No wonder there are so many arrests. People were breaking into those stores. The Arc de Triomhe is to the north and Notre Dame is to the south along that road.

The French government is expecting a repeat of last weekend's mayhem when rioters torched cars, looted shops and defaced the Arc de Triomphe monument on the Champs-Elysées avenue. So yesterday they published a video reminding protesters that demonstrating does not mean resorting to violence.

"Protesting is a right. [...] But protesting doesn't mean rioting. It doesn't mean destroying our heritage. It doesn't mean looting our businesses. It doesn't mean destroying our property. Protesting does not mean destroying our Republic."

They are now protesting for more free stuff.

Some may be. The core of the protest is against the elites and their globalist dreams. The carbon tax was the spark that lit the fire.

Leader of the movement this morning said they are protesting to tax the rich more and provide more public services.
