Per bbc news just now.

The French President will meet with his security committee to coordinate and will declare a ban on all protest activities by Yellow Vest members, probably tomorrow. Any Yellow Vest members engaging in protest activities will be arrested due to the violence and illegal rioting that has sprung out of the movement.

Hopefully that triggers a full blown revolt. My advice to the yellow vests is to go after the media and the government officials first, find some rope and trees and have a blast

Unless the French are willing to use extraordinary and lethal force to put down these folks, it will only escalate further.

It will be interesting to see how committed the Yellow Vests are to their cause. This is the French, after all, and they are accustomed to a certain level of comfort.

Remember when the Catalans overwhelmingly voted to leave Spain and Spain said no you’re not then detained the Catalan leadership? Those guys are too relaxed, sipping coffee at cafes during afternoons. They weren’t taking to the hills with guns Wolverine style.

I’m wary of drawing any real parallels between the two.

But...

Protests against the Shah went on for months, even petering out at one point.

Absolutely

If you use force, it has to be absolute, and overwhelming. Half measures will just piss people off and lead to even more street violence.

The Catalan protests ended when Spain got serious.

The 1st Amendment really is amazing folks. And to think there are people here (mainly progs) who want to restrict it because of people's feelings.

The Rothschild puppet is quaking in his little boots. Maybe these actions will bring this attention to our propagandist media hoard.

They really want to restrict it so they can control it and further consolidate their power grip on messages and narratives.
