Today many people in France are wondering if a "State of Emergency" should not be declared after the recent Riots in Paris and all over France. The initial "demonstrations" by the "Yellow Vests" had become more like "Riots" !
The "Yellow Vests" movement started about three weeks ago as "protests" against the rising cost of petrol and generally of the cost of living and taxation, as well as the rising level of unemployment.
Last Saturday black-clothed "hooded Rioters" joined gatherings of pacific "yellow vests" with the sole aim to destroy Shopfronts and Bank premises, to burn Cars and destroy or damage Public Monuments like the "Arc de Triomphe" in Paris !
In spite of all this, Opinion Polls back the "Yellow Vests" movement ! This reveals a general dissatisfaction with the policies which President Macron has adopted since his election in May 2017, and with his arrogant and disdainful attitude.
In order to control the rumbling discontent of the French people and to ensure their security and that of their property, President Macron is expected to propose important measures.
Whatever may be decided in the next few days to ensure better security, will surely provoke a review of other current problems : unofficially a Policy of "soft justice" is currently imposed by Judges because Prisons are totally overcrowded ! This has also completely depressed the Police !
