‘Bloodbath’ at French village fete as youths from deprived suburb kill 16-year-old
Mayor says rural town is ‘traumatised’ after gang attacks and seriously injures a number of young residents, fatally stabbing one teenager
Seems the main suspect didn't come from a "deprived suburb"—at least according to the latest update by lemonde. Typical reflexive, prejudice pattern thinking.
"Il habite « le centre » de Romans-sur-Isère, et « non le quartier de la Monnaie », a précisé le procureur de Valence" from https://www.lemonde.fr/societe/article/2023/11/21/apres-la-mort-d-un-adolescent-de-16-ans-a-crepol-sept-personnes-interpellees-annonce-gerald-darmanin_6201515_3224.html
This is terrible, and it should be on the front page everywhere.
That kids/youths come up, plan, and carry out such an atrocity is a very bad sign for our society.
The French government promised to ramp up security of elected officials
If this statement doesn't make your blood boil...
Not with the context provided litteraly the sentence before:
The shocking death came amid warnings of rising violence against France’s mayors, many of them from small rural villages. France has around 36,000 mayors. According to a recent poll, the number of verbal and physical attacks against them rose by 15 per cent last year after a record 32 per cent rise the previous year.
First of all these kind of statistics are useless, if the number of people struck by lightning went from 1 to 2 in the span of a year you could make the claim that 100% inCreAsE iN cAsUAlTiEs FroM LigHtNiNg StRikES. Also note how they included verbal abuse...
But thank god they're making an effort to pretect the powers that be while throwing the rest of us under the bus.
