A police killing caught on video. Protests and rioting fueled by long-simmering tensions over law enforcement treatment of minorities. Demands for accountability.
The events in France following the death of a 17-year-old shot by police in a Paris suburb are drawing parallels to the racial reckoning in the U.S. spurred by the killings of George Floyd and other people of color at the hands of law enforcement.
Despite the differences between the two countries’ cultures, police forces and communities, the shooting in France and the outcry that erupted there this week laid bare how the U.S. is not alone in its struggles with systemic racism and police brutality.

Very difficult for Westerners to learn from us since they regard SG and China as "Authoritarian" countries.
Funniy thing is we see more police with riot gears in the street of Paris, NY, London and even Washington.

Surprised that not many seem to know that for very long time France mata ish well known to be one of the more brutal one in Europe, next in line ish Spain if leecall correctly. That why when go tour in these Euro countries, don't pray pray with their mata, even US mata also cannot match.
There was a time when the country asked ordinary men to do extraordinary things.
But now, they'll only do it for money.
