French Riot! I want a riot! French Riot! A riot of my own!

Respectable Middleclass types are rioting in France:

PARIS, Dec 1 (Reuters) - Rioters ran amok across central Paris on Saturday, torching cars and buildings, looting shops, smashing windows and clashing with police in the worst unrest in more than a decade, posing a dire challenge to Emmanuel Macron's presidency.

The authorities were caught off guard by the escalation in violence after two weeks of nationwide protests against fuel taxes and living costs, known as the "yellow vest" movement after fluorescent jackets kept in all vehicles in France.

In Paris, police said they had arrested almost 300 people while 110 were injured, including 20 members of the security forces. Police fired stun grenades, tear gas and water cannon at protesters at the top of the Champs-Elysees boulevard, at the Tuilleries Garden near the Louvre museum and other sites.

Good. 

As Kate McMillian of Small Dead Animals likes to say, 'Not rioting is a failed conservative policy.' See also Cliven Bundy and the Battle of Berkley.

Everyone else gets to riot, why not job holding tax payers? 

Certain reader(s) are no doubt wondering if we would we do something like this? Of course not. Mrs. Stroock would kill us.
