Violent Multicultural Student Protests Engulf France

Student Rioters Attack White Women And Police

The Noticer | Noticer.news

White women and police officers have been attacked in the streets and schools torched across France as violence by youths, mainly from immigrant backgrounds, spirals out of control.

So-called student protests, which police say were orchestrated by the far-left, began two weeks ago in the crime-ravaged multicultural Paris suburb of Saint-Denis, and spread across the country before worsening on Thursday and Friday.

Horrific footage emerging from cities around the country shows marauding youths, almost entirely of North African or sub-Saharan African appearance, terrorising school staff and members of the public.

One video from Baudelaire High School in Seynod in the country’s south-east, shows a White teacher being surrounded by a mob of immigrant-background youths and repeatedly punched in the face by a black male who appears to be wearing a school uniform.

Another, from the southern city of a Marseille, shows a black-clad thug burning a White woman with a homemade flamethrower after she tried to stop rioters from destroying a bus stop, and a third shows a principal being doused in gasoline.

Several other videos show rioters attacking police, including one from the city of Belfort in the north-east where an off-duty officer is knocked to the ground and savagely beaten, and another from Paris in which a policewoman is tripped over and kicked.

Marine Le Pen, former leader of right-wing populist party National Rally, responded to the violence by writing: “The image of this young policewoman, pursued by a howling mob screaming its hatred, thrown to the ground and assaulted, is unbearable.

“These acts deserve exemplary punishments. Let her know that tonight, millions of French people offer her their warm support.”

National Rally President Jordan Bardella wrote: “Footage of a policewoman being chased through the streets and mobbed on the ground in Paris illustrates what France has become after decades of laxity and mass immigration.

“How long will we tolerate this barbarism? How long will we let our country sink without reacting?”

The riots have disrupted more than 500 schools, left 65 school staff and 305 police officers injured, resulted in nearly 2,000 arrests, and have caused millions of euros in damage.

The unrest has sparked global condemnation from the right, along with warnings France is on the brink of civil war, and calls for mass deportations and an end to multiculturalism.

A police report which was leaked to the media found that the initial student protests where being encouraged by “far-left elements from students unions… and political groups such as… LFI”.

Far-left party LFI has claimed it is only lending natural support to the rioters as it agrees with their grievances about conditions in French schools, but its leaders, including African Saint-Denis Mayor Bally Bagayoko, have regularly appeared alongside the protesters.

More Than 625 Arrested as Violent Student Protests Engulf France

More than 625 people have been arrested as violent student protests spread across France, leaving police officers, school employees, and students injured while far-left activists work to turn education grievances into a nationwide confrontation with the government.

The unrest began around schools in the Paris region last week before expanding to hundreds of high schools and dozens of university campuses.

French Prime Minister Sébastien Lecornu convened an emergency meeting Thursday and canceled ministers’ planned trips as authorities struggled to contain the escalating violence.

Principals Attacked, Schools Targeted

More than 350 high schools and approximately 30 university campuses were affected Thursday alone.

RFI reported that 83 police officers and gendarmes were injured during Thursday’s unrest.

At least 119 students and school employees have been hurt since the protests began.

The principal of Victor Hugo High School in Marseille was doused in gasoline and injured, according to Reuters.

Two other principals were attacked in Rouen and Petit-Quevilly.

Authorities also reported attempted arson and “urban violence” at several schools, while police deployed tear gas in multiple cities.

Students initially protested teacher shortages, deteriorating buildings, overcrowded classrooms, long schedules, and education budget cuts.

But the movement rapidly descended into street violence after spreading beyond its original locations.

“The students’ grievances about missing teachers and deteriorating schools were real at first,” Foundation for Defense of Democracies senior envoy Simone Rodan-Benzaquen said.

“But dousing a principal in gasoline and attacking firefighters are acts of extreme violence.

“What makes this politically significant is the effort to turn frustration over schools into a much broader confrontation with the government.”

‘Agitators’ Accused Of Inciting Violence

French Interior Minister Laurent Nunez said organized agitators traveled between schools to inflame the unrest.

“In certain places, there were individuals acting as agitators — people who moved from one school to another to stir up high school and other students and incite them to commit acts of violence,” Nunez said.

Education Minister Edouard Geffray urged schools to switch to remote classes when protesters prevented students from entering.

“Violence will not keep our students from their fundamental right to ​an education,” Geffray said.

The protests erupted two weeks after the government announced unpopular spending cuts in its 2027 budget, turning the violence into a major political crisis ahead of next May’s election to replace President Emmanuel Macron.

Far Left Moves To Exploit Unrest

Far-left presidential candidate Jean-Luc Mélenchon has condemned the government’s response as repressive.

His La France Insoumise party faces accusations that it is amplifying the unrest, inciting violence, and using the chaos to attract young voters.

Rodan-Benzaquen said LFI has “actively supported the mobilization.

“Activists circulate footage of clashes, party accounts amplify it, and elected officials present themselves as the students’ defenders.”

“Mélenchon sees these mobilizations as a way to consolidate young voters and marginalize the moderate left,” she added.

“At a time of deep political, geopolitical and economic challenges, this is a very dangerous situation for France.”

Social media footage showed Seine-Saint-Denis Mayor Bally Bagayoko, an LFI member, smiling and high-fiving students after a trash can was set ablaze in the street.

Île-de-France regional president Valérie Pécresse accused the far-left party of actively promoting destruction.

“There is a call to action being issued by LFI today: ‘Trash your high school’,” Pécresse said.

“It is being spread via TikTok challenges.”

Macron Condemns Blockades And Arson

Macron condemned the protesters while speaking in Madrid on Wednesday.

“High schools are meant to be open and to share knowledge,” Macron said.

“They are not meant to be blockaded or to have trash cans set on fire.”

What began as complaints about staffing and school conditions has now become a nationwide wave of arrests, arson attempts, attacks on educators, and street violence, with France’s far left openly positioning itself to reap the political rewards.
