Turmoil in France


If you have been reading about what is happening in France, you would have been aware that a teenager was shot dead by a police officer just because he did not have a proper license to drive an automobile. Despite the police officer apologizing to the dead teenager's family, riots broke out and the rioters are not backing down. This, in addition to protests over a pension dispute, could bring about the end of the three values of liberty, equality and fraternity that have defined France for more than 200 years.

Looks like dark times are ahead for France, which had been a great power during the Middle Ages, the Colonial Era, in the Daisenryaku video game series, and in World Cup soccer.
