Hundreds Arrested as Students Riot Across France, Setting Schools on Fire
“Authorities reported violence near high schools, mainly in Nantes, blaming ‘violent individuals’ who ‘join the students to carry out acts of vandalism.'”
French security officials have arrested over 632 people, mostly students, in two days as riots spread across the country.
The students started rioting over supposed horrid school conditions, including “staffing shortages, dilapidated buildings, overcrowded classes, government budget cuts and long schedules.”
I found numerous videos online, but it’s hard to authenticate them. Many of the videos concentrate on the second or third generation migrant students, but I’ve seen plenty with native French students.
Absolute chaos across France:
625 arrests
83 police officers attacked
32 teachers injured
Hundreds of schools burned down

The protests started last week, but spiraled into riots this week. Rioters have set fire to trash bins and blocked off schools.
France24 reported that regional authorities have said the riots have left several principals injured (emphasis mine):
Among reports of school staff being targeted was one incident in the southern port city of Marseille when a school principal and his deputy were splashed with petrol. A journalist with TV channel M6 was attacked at the same school, local officials said.
In the northwestern city of Nantes, firefighters had to intervene to extinguish a fire in the entrance of a high school “following a gathering marked by violence towards staff”, the regional education board said.
Authorities reported violence near high schools, mainly in Nantes, blaming “violent individuals” who “join the students to carry out acts of vandalism”.
Catch that last line? Violent individuals.
According to Interior Minister Laurent Nunez, “in certain places, there were individuals acting as agitators — people who moved from one school to another to stir up high school and other students and incite them to commit acts of violence.”
It’s also interesting since I’ve also seen claims that the far-left La France Insoumise (LFI) Party has propped up these riots and even attended them:
School fires and riots spread across all of France
Young second- and third-generation migrant rioters are setting high schools on fire.
In many of France’s cities, riots are being propped up by far-left pro-migrationist LFI officials, who are physically present at the scene.
At least 202 people have been injured, of whom 119 are students and teachers. All 96 French departments have reported at least one school incident.
The protests have now spread across the whole country.

Kill them
Wash, rinse, repeat…
Notice how many are dressed like antfa terrorists? Also those carrying so called Palestinian flags. There is no state or nation known as Palestine. There never was such a state. The concept of a “Palestine “ was created by Yassir Arafat with the help of the mow failed Soviet Union. What France is facing is the result of open borders welcoming North African muslims to the extent the country is being conquered from within by Islam. The schools are now the first of the Western institutions being destroyed by Islam. UK, watch out. You are next. USA, if you don’t wise up you will follow shortly!
Are the citizens of any European country being daily victimized by their fat dumb and happy leftists rulers actually going to vote them out of power? Assuming they can so vote of course. I seriously doubt the French have that much integrity but I’d be happy to be proven wrong.
For all we know, they are voting against the current regime. But as we all know, the real question is, “Who *counts* the votes?”
TBF: many of the European political parties – even the so-called “right wing” ones – are really cruddy and hardly different from their Commie counterparts.
Specifically, in France, Le Pen is a socialist.
Leftist governments cannot be voted out. They, like cancer, have to be surgically removed.
Right. So their solution is to burn teachers and staff alive along with the schools in question, steal classroom computers, threaten Jews, and and fly the “Palestine” flag.
Lying by the Communist media no longer bothers me. What does bother me is that the lies are clumsy, stupid, and easy to disprove. The worst kind of gaslighting is lazy gaslighting.
Student riots are traditional in France. It never ends well, but tradition is tradition. Both an imposition and a choice.
Marx had a nice zinger about such a social arrangement and its consequences, in explaining why his analysis was better than two others
Of the writings dealing with the same subject at approximately the same time as mine, only two deserve notice: Victor Hugo’s Napoleon le Petit and Proudhon’s Coup d’Etat. Victor Hugo confines himself to bitter and witty invective against the responsible producer of the coup d’etat. The event itself appears in his work like a bolt from the blue. He sees in it only the violent act of a single individual. He does not notice that he makes this individual great instead of little by ascribing to him a personal power of initiative unparalleled in world history. Proudhon, for his part, seeks to represent the coup d’etat as the result of an antecedent historical development. Inadvertently, however, his historical construction of the coup d’etat becomes a historical apologia for its hero. Thus he falls into the error of our so-called objective historians. I, on the contrary, demonstrate how the class struggle in France created circumstances and relationships that made it possible for a grotesque mediocrity to play a hero’s part.
French students riot like American students TP houses on Halloween.
Yes, the French viewing rioting as other societies view picnicking: a normal social gathering made even more enjoyable if you have a nice fire.
When riots occur and can’t be contained with normal LEO or even ‘riot police’ tactics we gotta stop pretending that normal rules apply. Instead declare martial law, initiate an immediate 24 hour curfew and clear the streets using whatever force is required to accomplish rounding up anyone on the streets. Failure to do so will only embolden the rioters and reinforces a reality where the riots only end when the rioters choose to stop. IOW it ceded power to the rioters to control when/where/how long normal civic life exists. A Nation can’t function that way.
Muslims move in and destroy business, infrastructure and schools. Teachers leave because it’s not safe making schools understaffed. The government pretends it can’t see the muslims. Communists join in an riot because the system doesn’t work. Wash, rinse repeat.
When you put a turd in the punch bowl it is ruined and undrinkable. When you allow muslims into your country it is ruined and unlivable. Why is this so hard for many to see? They literally have ruined EVERY country they have invaded! Europe is almost gone and most likely never coming back. Canada will be the first country to fall in North America and then Mexico. The dumber and less moral the population the quicker they take over.
Hey, remember the term “longest undefended border?”
Those were the days, eh? They’ll soon be gone, like all the rest.
Then America is pretty dumb cause the Muslims have taken over much of Michigan, Minnesota, even Texas, Virginia
The cartels would have a vote. Doubt if they like Muslims.
they probably work with cartels
Of course there are “Palestinian” flags. Wherever these flags are flown, there the enemies of civilization are gathered. Lethal force is the only thing that will stop and reverse this. No quarter to the enemies of civilization.
Will exams be waived so they can deal with the mental trauma of their arson?
Newspeak alert. We now have a new euphemism: “second and third generation migrant”.
I have always described myself as a “ garden variety American mongrel with a Scottish last name,”
Now, I am a “eighth generation migrant”?
Now, I am a “eighth generation migrant”?
Depends: Have you fully assimilated into the culture into which your ancestors immigrated? As a clarification, assimilation does not mean that you actively participate or agree with all aspect of the culture – you don’t have to listen to Rap Music (sic) or eat pork, or fried catfish. It simply means that you do not attempt to interfere with other’s legal activities.
A really good question. I am mid ’80’s. Had you asked me if I was “assimilated” in, day, 1965, I would have laughed. What else am I?
OTOH, today I wonder. Maybe I really am an eighth generation migrant.
Would a better description of the participants be “muslim?”
Until recently, Europe has been defending itself for muslims for centuries.
Now, the loons just let them just walk in and take over.
France has fallen and thus another ‘democracy’ that has committed suicide. These ‘leftists’ are nothing more than mules who are pulling the revolution on behalf of Islam.
Students complaining about the teachers. LOL. Second and third generation Muslims complaining about Western civilization is more accurate. Ask AI.
Let France burn.
My sentiments exactly,
With all the sovereign debt crisis, and the consequences like cutting budgets, it’s like watching a spinning plate show waiting for the first country to fall. Poor France with its insane fiscal policies and a large unacclimated migrant population looks to be the first to crash to the floor.
i wonder if france announcing it’s sending anti air weapons and troops to the gulf has anything to do with the timing.
