French police also blew off a guy's hand yesterday as well.
>There was 89K soldiers placed on stand-by, wonder if they are disguised as police now.
The Gendarmerie are the military serving as police in France. The people in the video fucking with the guy in the wheel chair are Gendarmerie, i.e. french military. This is the same for the majority of riot gear guys you see. Blue vans is a good sign of their presence. Posse Comitatus is not observed in France, the military can enforce domestic law. And you're seeing the result of that.

Going to be some good talk about Macron and some "check out this vid" for the Frenchies around the water cooler and at the dinner table this week.
I'd do it for the team.
