gallier2December 22, 2018 at 3:10 PMArgh. Just lost a half an hour comment that I was writing about todays gilet jaune gathering. So I will make it short then as I don't have the mood to start anew.So today was act 6 of the gilet jaune. Contrary to Castaners statement that there were only 800 gj in Paris, there was again a big gathering. The GJ were smarter this time as they made the police think they would go to Versailles (very posh town south west of Paris). The authorities had amassed there with all their riot equipments to discover that noone wanted to play with them there :-)The GJ gatherd in Montmartre (around the Sacré-Cœur) instead and started their march towards the posher part of the capital. At the end of the day they massively arrived at Champs-Elysées were the police was overwhelmed.

It's interesting to observe how quiet the US and UN are on the state sponsored crack down against France's protestors- I'm sensing that big old double standard at play. If you want some background information on the Gilet Jaunes/Yellow Vest protestshead back to
