        The course of these demonstration should be more lethal against these "brutal beasts"

        the overall protest I get but I never understand the destruction part of it though... wtf with the fires? What purpose does that truly serve?

        IDK, maybe after several months protesting and Macron "finding" money for Notre Dame, but still nothing to meet their demands even partially, people got fed up?

        Those demonstrators aren't all French people, France is facing shortage in population, most them are immigrants, attempted to exploit them to grow its economy but they are ruining all France now.

        You're talking nonsense. Exactly no migrant in #YellowVests, surburbs don't participate. It's poor and middle classes became poor who are #YellowVests . Stop bullshits please. Speak about what you know !

        Set small fires? Most fires are set small and start small. Opposed to setting big fires with oversized matches or huge lighters, lol...

        Is it just me or are these protestors mostly if not all men? Mad at paying taxes? Sound like Republicans. Isn't these taxes on gas supposed to encourage greener living? I'm not sure yellow jackets have the best "issue" to stand on.

        Women and children were left at home since the police started roughing people up. And you shouldn't be dismissive of working class people mad at their taxes going up, which, BTW was the last straw. You should read their demands, not guess.
