Things are not getting better in France, Belgium, Italy and beyond as social chaos continues unfolding. The worst of the street violence seems to be centered throughout France as government officials now report around 500,000 people participated in street “protests” nationally that turned into violent confrontations with police.
EU News is reporting that dozens of arrests were made as the chaos unfolded {link}. “The French Interior Ministry said around 550,000 people took part in the protests, including roughly 110,000 in Paris.”
Additionally, AFP is reporting, “The town hall in the French city of Limoges was “largely lost” to a fire set by masked protesters on Saturday, the top regional official told AFP. “The roof has collapsed onto lower floors, except the west wing, and two-thirds of the exterior has already disappeared,” the local prefect, Maurice Barate, said.
Another report highlights the looting that quickly took place as opportunists swooped in to agitate for economic reparations in the form of Hermes swag and Apple Store tech components. {link} Looters in several French cities on Saturday broke into stores ranging from a high-end luxury brand to a bakery, on the sidelines of cost-of-living protests, AFP journalists and authorities said.
In Paris, near the Republique square, the front window of a skincare brand came crashing down, with looters tossing beauty products to dozens of people massing outside, an AFP correspondent saw.
[…] In the second-largest city of Marseille, angry protesters vandalised dozens of shops, targeting luxury brand Hermes as well as others stores selling jewellery, clothes, makeup, household appliances and even bread, a third AFP journalist said.
[…] In the northern city of Lille, shops were vandalised, with looters in particular breaking into an Apple Store in the city centre, Socialist mayor Arnaud Deslandes said.
Several stores were looted in the southern city of Nice, including sportswear outlets and a motorbike dealership. (more)
UPDATE – The town hall's historic bell tower in Limoges has collapsed. The building is on the verge of burning down.

As has often been pointed out, France and the UK have nuclear weapons. We can’t let them fall into the hands of these barbarians. France and the UK should deport all illegal aliens as well as aliens with visas who conspire against them. They should denaturalize all people of third-world origin who hate Europeans and seek to destroy their countries, their cultures and their economies.
I just recently discovered that Tillamook cheese made in Oregon has gone halah. I will no longer buy their products. To meet halal standards the animal providing the milk is treated cruelly and an Imam prays over the animal to allah.
Thanks for this information! Had no idea.
We have proven go-woke-go-broke…
… time for bow-to-mecca-and-get-wrecka.
GB, France, Spain(?), Italy(?) are imploding because they’ve willingly brought people into their countries who will never assimilate.
It’s like shooting yourself in the foot, and then shooting yourself in the other foot.
Thankfully, that is slowing down and even decreasing in America (for now).
Not if democrats win elections….
