Plenty of Swedish flags, placards and yellow vests were seen. Children participated as well. “We are not extremists. We are ordinary Swedes”, shouted the protesters.
quote:
“I am here for the 9-year-old girl who was raped and beaten in a junk room. I am here for all the women who no longer dare go out.
quote:
“I am here for the poor elderly who paid tax their whole lives and now are forced to starve. I am here for the homeless. I am here for those who don’t get what the social contract promises.”
quote:
“I’m originally from Czechoslovakia and in 1989 the communist occupation fell. It is called the Velvet Revolution. Do you know how it started?”
quote:
“The pen, the written word. The first time there were 30 people, they were arrested. Next time 300, and then came 3000. Then the revolution was a fact. And we can do the same thing”, she told the cheering crowd.

European leaders were smart to disarm and limit the speech of its citizenry.
In a just world, Europeans march on their capitals and start hanging their leaders in the streets.

100% this.
European countries stripped the rights of free speech and defense from their citizens and then began imposing their will against the wishes of the public. As is tradition in Europe. Things will get bloody when the UN tries to use its globalist army to silence the protestors. This is all the more reason we shouldn't fund the UN and should absolutely oppose a formation of its own autonomous military.

I must be a terrible person because the first thing I’ve thought about is this is fertile ground for a terroristic attack. Guys and gals out in the open with numbers on their side
I hope this isn’t a flash in the pan demonstrations/riot.

Sadly, I think you're mistaken. This isn't a budding Capitalist movement... these are Ultra-Lefties who ain't gettin' the free shite they were promised... and now they are looking under the sofa cushions for someone else's money. This has nothing to do with fiscal responsibility or personal self-reliance.

This is just flat out wrong on so many levels. Go check the direct accounts of people over investigating this stuff and ignore the MSM for a day. Come back and let us know what you find.

Preview of the social unrest possible here also when trillion dollar deficits aren't possible any longer, requiring either massive tax increases or cuts to the military, social security and Medicare.

The French government on Sunday (Dec 9) urged Mr Donald Trump not to interfere in French politics after the US president posted tweets about the protests rocking the country and attacked the Paris climate agreement.
"We do not take domestic American politics into account and we want that to be reciprocated," Foreign Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian told LCI television.
"I say this to Donald Trump and the French president says it too: leave our nation be."

Now France wants to be a nation-state.
Too late France... you've already sold your soul to the globalists and now your people are going to take their country back!

This is about so much more than them “just wanting free shite.” As has already been said in this thread very well by ngyuener

Go outside kid. If you think that’s a melt, you clearly haven’t spent enough time around human beings.

How do we get into the yellow vest sales business? Seems like a good opportunity.

I believe so. I think the Europeans are getting tired of all the socialist shite and constantly being ripped off by the government. It started with Brexit and Trump being elected, and now it’s spreading to France, Sweden, and other places in Europe. I like to listen to the song Revolution by the Beatles and think about this
