Increase in French state-sanctioned violence - security forces savagery

A friend of mine on Facebook sent me this video this evening. I will paraphrase what they told me about the current situation in #France. The police brutality has reached an unprecedented level and is clearly sanctioned by the state. We see human beings trampled underfoot, beaten mercilessly, dragged bleeding and barely conscious across roads - men, women, teenagers, even children,nobody is safe from the savagery that is sweeping France.

My FB friend asked me to share the video and to alert people to the threat of even further escalation of violence that is facing the peaceful demonstrators among the Gilets Jaunes.

They feel that the violence has been steadily increasing. The police and security forces, are being given even greater authority and freedom to dehumanize and viciously oppress the protestors. The Gilets Jaunes are being criminalised by a state-controlled media in order to provide an excuse for this torture, mutilation and gassing of the citizens of the country.

"Please see the young man at the end of the video, on the ground, his face covered in blood, see the immense distress in his eyes as he repeats "I didnt do anything, I didnt do anything". Listen to the hate as the police officer beats him..."ta gueule" "shut-up"
