It should be considered that some of the protests were done peacefully by people that didn't want violence and there is a likelihood that some people might of been there for that during that time period, maybe even supporting a peaceful approach. But thats the problem with the "Right-Left divide" that was only created by Trump so he could turn the US vote into a coin toss (near 50/50). (A gross simplification of a system that would otherwise be more complex and difficult to win, even if only through gambling)

Marxism in Europe just needed the revolutionary blood of Islamo-socialism spiked up its veins to get back on track to the glory days.

The Louvre and other museums in Paris will be closed this weekend in anticipation of more riots.

70,000 police have been surged into the city. Which is unlikely to do much good, unless the police are given more robust rules of engagement. If they keep retreating whenever a mob confronts them, it won't matter how many of them there are.

And where did those 70,000 police come from? I'm guessing that many smaller locations outside Paris have been stripped of their cops.

Huge crowds in Paris today, but it seems comparatively peaceful. There seem to be a lot fewer of the dressed-in-black antifa types so far.

But the sun is going down and trouble might come after it gets dark.
