Violence done to the people

I saw, cops dragging unarmed women by their hair in the street.

I saw, cops bludgeoning men, on the ground and unarmed.

I saw, cops gasing unarmed retired demonstrators, all holding hands and who had to ran away to avoid suffocating.

I saw cops aiming their Flash-Ball in closed shot and shooting, in the face, unarmed people, right beside me.

I saw blood tunnin down the street and cops charche, gasing and throwing tons of grenades.

I saw cops crushing an an unarmed man's face and back under their knees on the asphalt, only to handcuff him.

I saw kids crying and running through a tear-gas cloud on a Christmas fair where cops were throwing grenades.

Then, some Ex ministers ask for the police to open fire on the demonstrators,

some ministers ask for the condamnation of human solidarity, because they decided that this form of solidarity was against republican order.

Other ministers want to open files with the regime's political oppennen't 's name in it .

Then, some intellectuals condamn demonstrations, calling them «  putschists », while in their overseas secondary residence.

And the President refuse to hear about the contestation, worse, he judges it from far right wing, homophobic, racist, antisemit, and illegitimate, and asserts that he'll use any means necessary to crush it.

But Yellow Vests are violent, they're violent because they burn down trashed, put barrier in the middle of the street, punch with their bare hands trained, formed and overprotected men who injured people on a daily basis.

So, I am a Yellow Vest, and never had I been violent, never had I trew the tiniest rock on the cops, never had I put barrier on the road, or burned down a trashcan, but clearly, I'm started to get really pissed off becaus I can't stand witnessing all those horrible things police and government have done and keep doing. Because I can't bear any longer to hear days after days the same lies, the sames dishonesty, and now, the same threats.

Violence do exists, but for now, only one side really uses it. The people hasn't started to fight. But The people is getting angry, and he's right to do so.
