France.. Y’all good?

[Unforgiven]

White people should be terrified, and be prepared. It's so obvious what's really going on.

Paris might be the most overrated city of all time. Only time I’ve ever seen a human take a poop in the street and a chick pull baggies of drugs from her vag. Hit the Eiffel Tower, the louvre and the get out and see versaille, mont st michel and Normandy. Normandy will change your life 

make up your mind:  good or bad?.  Was the bag incident near the Eiffel Tower? you're never alone with a schizophrenic...

Now ask yourself why American media went all in on that story and isn’t touching the civil unrest, trending into outright anarchy, in France..

 

Macron was at a sports event last nite, I think.  I'm guessing his advisors aren't seriously considering the collapse of the nation.  Oops, looks like it was an Elton John concert.  No excuse for that.  now if it was a Bills game...I'ver got to believe France has a very good internal security apparatus

I’ve never had any problems in Paris. Although all those African guys pushing you to buy little statues of the Eiffel Tower at the base of the Eiffel Tower are a bit annoying. 😂

Never been.  Always visiting family in London when we're near there.  They really never want to go so we haven't.  I'd like to.

? 

There's no incongruency in the post.

Versailles, Mont St. Michel and Normandy are not Paris.

 

I kind of like Paris, but there are unpleasant elements.

Been to the others as well.

Normandy is really cool.

Got to fold the flag when it was hauled down at the American cemetery at Taps.

You have to go see Paris! Two hours on the bullet train. Round trip tickets are about $150.

Funniest thing I ever saw there.

Right after 9/11, US airline crews had to stay at an airport instead of the normal, contractual downtown hotels, and Charles De Gaulle airport is far away from anything fun.

So, they set up this thing where two times a day a bus would drive you downtown and drop off at L'Opera, picking up twice a day much later.

I always did that.

One day on the bus, we had arrived in the city. Most everyone on the bus was asleep, but I wasn't. I was on the right side and I could see this little battle going on between this old guy in a small car with his wife and our driver. The traffic was quite heavy and the old guy was trying to get into our lane. The bus driver wouldn't let him in. I could see the guy and the bus driver gesturing unkindly to each other.

After about three traffic lights of this escalating situation, we were stopped at a light and the old guy gets out of his car and approaches the bus. The bus driver opens the door, goes down the stairs and while they scream at each other, our bus driver head buts the guy. The guy's head is bleeding and his wife gets out and they start screaming. Bus driver comes up the stairs and gets in his seat and off we go. About two lights later, a cop blocks the bus, comes in and arrests the driver, leaving our bus about two blocks from L'Opera in the left turn lane.

We all just got out and walked.

I don't. It's France. They've been through three monarchies, two empires, one facist dictatorship and four republics since 1793. They had a communist coup in 1870 and a military coup in the 1960s.

 

They'll sort themselves out or they won't. There's nothing atypical going on.

Don't worry, the protests will diminish once France is on their month-long August vacation.  The French are quick to protest unless it interferes with their time off.

It's crazy as many on the right in France ars saying to stay out of it and allow the lefts problem to eat itself.  Allow the lefties to feal the results of their policies.  Almost like punishment for voting for macron.

Wonder how much the burning of the koran is also adding fuel to the fire.

It's not the summering crowd that's doing the rioting
