    Ok, fine, I get their point. Now please do the same to all the police officers throwing explosive devices at children.

    This probably wouldn’t have happened if the police hadn’t responded to protests with violence from the beginning.

    What were the police officers wearing? They probably wanted the petrol bomb to be thrown but regretted it later. It wouldn’t have happened if the police just stayed home

      The riot police in France are something special. They basically come in charging and beating everyone in sight, even people not protesting. If they are present there will always be violence. It makes them really thirsty and people need to provide cocktails to them to reward their hard work. All response is self defense because they are trying to fucking murder people. That is why people throw anything that is not bolted or chained down at them. They deserve it.

    This is fair, firebombing is far far worse than stone throwing and general mob fighting

      yeah. chemical weapons and shooting grenades at children with such saturation the impacts main them before the thing even goes off are one thing, but a flaming bottle of vodka? these people need to be stopped.

          A Molotov cocktail (among several other names – see § Etymology) is a hand-thrown incendiary weapon consisting of a frangible container filled with flammable substances and equipped with a fuse. It is typically a glass bottle filled with flammable liquids sealed with a cloth wick.
