Showing Original Post only (View all)Racism and hate slowly flooding France [View all]
Hey, just wanted to share with you DUers. Yesturday, hundreds of conservatives warked tru Paris to claim Hollande resignation. Im so sad. What they did? Nazi signs and salutes, ans slogan anti Jews, anti LGBT....and so on.
Do you Americans think Europe will be turned into various nationalist regimes, or even a war, given the actual climate of hate ( IMHO created by the crisis?)
Id like to have some support, and some overseas opinions.
Thanks.

With all that was in the OP, you comment on a misspelled word by an ESL person?

English Second Language. It'd be like a lot of us to write French phonetically

When I see spelling that bad, I usually discount anything else they have to say. nt

I hadn't read of the protest, will need to do so. Unfortunately there are extremists even there.

So many groups and categories, seems there can easily be "them" who are not "us" and easy to hate.

Is your issue the protest with the signs or the attitudes behind them, or both?
