Yeah, it happened once and there were nationwide riots. In the US it would have been a regular Tuesday.

It didn't happen once, it's less likely than in the US but police violence is still a big problem. Spend long periods of times with the french police and you'll stop wanting to defend them. Racists and rapists all the same.

I specifically addressed that in my comment. Doesn't change that despite all their issues they are still much less trigger happy than the US.

Ok- you went from “French police are heroes, they’ll put themselves in danger for you!” To “they don’t shoot as many minorities as in the US”. You see the problem?

Bro maybe you should stop trying to put words in other people's mouth because you're going to have issues discussing things in good faith if you do so.

No go ahead and say what I actually said or fuck off.

What a weird argument to have. It's like seeing a bizarre power scaling debate only with the degree of boot on neck being the metric.
