Soaring coronavirus cases, a slumping economy, and continued
social unrest plague France at the moment.
According to RT
News, thousands of protesters flooded the street of Paris
Saturday to denounce President Emmanuel Macron’s “Global
Security” bill.
On Nov. 27, the French National Assembly approved the
Global Security bill’s Article 24, which makes it illegal to
distribute images or videos of police officers that can easily be
identified.
The security bill has been criticized by activists and
journalists, who warn the government is set to increase its
surveillance tools and restrict rights of posting images and videos
of police officers online. Journalists say this violates freedom of
the press.
According to Reuters,
the demonstration began peacefully in Paris then quickly spiraled
out of control as protesters and police clashed on city
streets.
Protesters were seen torching multiple cars.

No official totals on how many protesters – but judging by
pictures and video on Twitter – perhaps thousands are in
attendance.
Le cortège se densifie. Devant, les
#GiletsJaunes veulent avancer sur l’avenue Gambetta. Un cordon
de gendarmes bloque l’accès pour le moment.

It was noted by
AFP that the recent policing beating of a�Black man, music
producer Michel Zecler, also intensified anger among
protesters.
France has been hit by a tsunami of social unrest this year,
from the Yellow vests movement to anti-lockdown demonstrations to
now the security bill.
