    Love those French

    Say what you will about the French, but you have to love them for knowing how to protest.

    In case you haven't heard, France wants to remive fuel tax exemptions from farmers and impose many other restrictions - similar to the Dutch. The farmers have been protesting for a few weeks. First, they just drove tractors to Paris. Then they dumped manure on and in the government buildings. Now they are covering the paved roads with dirt and manure.
    Got to love the French! At least they know how to protest!!

        Hopefully the protest in France won’t be in vain.

          I’m afraid it will. It ain’t called the “Paris Accord” for nothing. And you can expect the same policies to hit US farmers in the decade.

              They normally surrender pretty quick.

                They've already won the battle for the reason they started the protest - the government backed down from eliminating the tax breaks. Now they are protesting because they have the upper hand and they are trying to get more changes ... I mean improvements.

                Can you imagine if something like that happened here? The farmers would all be in jail.

                      I'm sort of surprised this hasn't gotten more coverage on this site.

                      Okay, the last one is fake, but seriously, the manure and everything else is wild.​​
