Durden
weet het waarschijnlijk niet (hoewel?) maar als ambtenaren of de
politie van welk EU land dan ook, met cijfers komt betreffende een
protest , kan je daar meestal de helft van dat aantal bij optellen.
Volgens zeggen zouden er 125.000 deelnemers aan de Gele Hesjes demo's
hebben meegedaan. In totaal zouden er afgelopen zaterdag 1.385 demonstranten zijn
gearresteerd tijdens de protesten......
Vandaag werd overigens bekend gemaakt dat Macron weer een aantal maatregelen terug heeft gedraaid en dat het minimumloon met € 100,-- wordt verhoogd, benieuwd of dit genoeg is tegen de protesten........
Met
een aantal foto's en video's laat Durden de protesten en het geweld
van de politie aan je voorbijgaan (een aantal video's kan ik niet overnemen, zie daarvoor het origineel):

Update3: As
the evening wore on, French officials said that 125,000 protesters
took to the streets during "Act IV" of the Yellow Vest
anti-government demonstrations, with 10,000
protesting in Paris.
In total, 1,385 people were arrested amid an incredibly heavy police
presence.
17
members of French law enforcement and over 100 protesters were
injured, including a man whose hand was blown off after reportedly
picking up a grenade fired by police.
Kan de video bij het hieronder getoonde Twitterbericht niet weergeven, hier een 'iets onduidelijker video' van YouTube, met de man die zijn hand verloor, let op verontrustende beelden:

Meanwhile,
President Trump has taken to trolling French President
Emmanuel Macron.
"The
Paris Agreement isn’t working out so well for Paris. Protests and
riots all over France. People do not want to pay large sums of money,
much to third world countries (that are questionably run), in order
to maybe protect the environment. Chanting ‘We Want Trump!’ Love
France," Trump tweeted early Saturday morning.

The demonstrations began last month over a proposed fuel tax hike earmarked to pay for climate change measures, before the protests morphed into a general anti-government resistance.
Update2: The
French Interior Ministry has announced 1,385
arrests across the country,
and that despite tensions remaining in some areas, the situation is
"under control." Prime minister Édouard
Philippe, however, noted that rioters are still at work in some
French cities - adding that a dialogue with the Yellow Jackets has
begun, and "must go on."

The ATMs have not fared well today in #Paris
Guy with the “wanted” vest told me he’s loves the “France en Colère” Facebook group and then started showing me memes on his phone.
There isn’t a singular coherent #giletsjaunes list of demands but several protesters are carrying their own list around today.

police resorted to extreme crowd-control measures on as tens
of thousands of "Yellow Vest" protesters descended on the
French capital for a fourth weekend of chaos which began over fuel
taxes and quickly morphed into general outrage at the Macron
government.

There are countless numbers of the yellow vest on the main street here in Paris all kettled in by police who won’t let them leave and are just tear gassing them.
Zoom in and you won’t be able to see the end of them plus there are thousands more all over the city being kept away
Tear
gas was fired at the protesters who were shouting "Macron,
resign" near Champs-Elysees avenue. At least 737 were
arrested in Paris.

At
least 31,000 protesters came out for Saturday's "Act IV"
event - coordinated through social media.
"The
movement has given birth to a monster," said
Interior Minister Christophe Canaster of the
Yellow
Vests - which the Macron administration deployed 89,000 police and
gendarmes to try and contain. 8,000 police forces were active in
Paris alone.
"These
past three weeks have produced a monster that its creators no longer
control," Canaster said Friday, saying that the administration
would have "zero tolerance" to those trying sow chaos.
Philippe
on Friday evening met a delegation of self-described "moderate"
yellow vests who urged people not to join the protests.
A
spokesman from the movement, Christophe Chalencon, said Philippe had
"listened to us and promised to take our demands to the
president".
"Now
we await Mr Macron.
I hope he will speak to the people of France as a father, with love
and
respect and that he will take strong decisions," he said. -AFP
Paris has
gone into lockdown as
authorities and businesses prepare for the mayhem - as shops, banks,
restaurants and other businesses boarded up to prevent anticipated
looting and property destruction. As we reported
on thursday,
the Eiffel Tower will be among the shuttered tourist attractions
around the city.
Right
after 10:00 a.m. local time the rally turned violent and police fired
tear gas canisters into the crowd and deployed their fleet
of VBRG
armored vehicles next
to the Arc de Triomphe, which was the site to last week's most
intense violence.

The US embassy issued a warning to Americans currently in Paris to "keep a low provile and avoid crowds," while Portugal, Belgium and the Czech Republic suggested the postponement of any planned visits
New barricades, burning cars, tanks and sporadic clashes #GilletsJaunes
The
protests have spread to other countries as well. In Brussels, Yellow
Vests rushed the European Parliament building.
