Maybe the cops should try not being violent.
Woah now, let's not get too crazy with our solutions /s
But the only tool they have is a hammer.
*gun
Oh wait, that's the U.S.
Well I mean over here too. The protests are about extrajudicial killings of minorities.
Wait, if cops in the US, France, and Germany are bastards, does that mean All Cops Are Bastards?
Let's not jump conclusions. I'm sure not all cops are bastard, for example dead ones.
Surely this will stop them this time for really real
"You can't protest agains police violence because we don't have enough police officers". I'm sure that will stop them
It almost seems like a trap, they are all but saying “please stop protesting we can’t take it any more”, a protest becomes a coup/revolution if the authorities refuse to concede to the demands and are overwhelmed by the protesters
Well the protestors will have to stop now that they aren't allowed to protest
I wish the French people a very pleasant Sixth Republic
Lmk when they post a guillotine GoFundMe
May the North Africans lead the revolution
So sixth republic when?
La police est 💩💩
Oh boy that's going to go over well
So we are commanding you not to protest police, also we don't have enough police to enforce our command.
We know you're upset with the police but don't come into our police-free zone. Pretty please.
Longer I think about this the funnier it gets.
The French right now.
LOL, clowns.
French authorities confirmed that a protest against police violence set to take place in Paris on Saturday could not go ahead due to police shortages.
"We don't have enough cops to commit violence on everyone protesting so we have cancelled the protest."
