“If you do not take risks for your opinion, you are nothing.”

After this weekends violence it looks like the French are doing just that. I think the French people are on the verge of a revolution and if the government issues a state of emergency and calls out the military to force order then that might just cause a full revolution that could spread across Europe.

The people are angry at their government. It is not just the fuel taxes being imposed but the cost of living and migration that has angered them. They also have expressed that the government is a government of the rich. This does not set well for the common people that are suffering because of the policies of the government.

The French have a history of violent revolutions. It is in their genes. It won’t surprise me if this is the beginning of a revolution that could get out of hand if the government is not careful and does not curtail it’s arrogance with it’s policies.

Macron seems to be a man with an imagination based in nullity. He seems to think that raising the cost of petrol will reduce global warming without considering the suffering he is causing the common folk who are already suffering from the high cost of living. The rich could care less about the cost of petrol as they have plenty to pay with.

It is men like Macron and his like that causes revolutions.

The Frogs are typical socialists. They don’t care about the taxes. They just want the other guy to pay them. They still want their free shit. What is happening there is what will happen here when the extortion checks to the niggers stop.
