    So Le Pen’s crowd is blaming specific groups, some of which havent been around since June, and lawmakers for inciting or supporting a brawl which led to a death in the streets, while citing nothing? Just a gut feeling? Am I reading this correctly, I am not well versed in French politics other than Le Pen is a family line of racist goons.

      The problem is not so much Le Pen as the mainstream media and current government giving voice to the same shit.

      Le Pen is a family line of racist goons

      Their party was founded by a former SS (Bousquet) and a colonial thug who tortured Algerians (Le Pen)

      Well the context was indeed political, and the attackers were most likely leftists. But yeah the witch hunt is based solely on the account of their own security team.
