I do appreciate you sharing that, and it does give me more knowledge about France.

Ultimately, I do hope that the people are heard and can move forward towards a socially productive and fair future.

I hope so but I must say I'm a bit pessimistic on the future of my country in terms of society. But we never now, maybe at some point some charismatic leader with good intentions will shine.

Anway, on a side note, thanks for your way to debate and listen to others. You have been hard downvoted on some of your comments even if they were courteous, but I wish our parliament could discuss topics the way you do it at some point.

I've been to several European countries, but not France. It pains me to watch these things happen, and it does sound like people are simply fed up with how things have been going (between them and government, or them and the police). I do hope that a resolution can be met without any bloodshed or further destruction of those communities.

It's not Reddit, so I don't worry about downvotes. It's a great form of nonviolent protest =)
