After the deployment of 45,000 law enforcement to French streets, numerous police injuries, and the death of one firefighter, French patriots have begun emerging across the nation, demanding an end to the chaos and restoration of order.
On Sunday night, 157 arrests were made. This marked a decrease compared to the 719 arrests on Saturday night, 994 on Friday night, and 1,311 on Thursday night.
Tragically, Dorian Damelincourt, a 24-year-old firefighter, lost his life in Saint-Denis while attempting to eradicate a fire in an underground car park.

In response to the endless chaos, French citizens began assembling outside municipal buildings. They then started protesting the riots and recent violence against the mayor of L’Haÿ-les-Roses.
In Lyon, France, nationalists began chanting the “blue, white, red,” the color that comprises the French flag. However, law enforcement officers responded to the nationalist protests by firing off tear gas in Lyon during the assembly.
This is not stopping patriot vigilantes from detaining would-be looters and shielding businesses from further desecration by vagrants.
Interestingly enough, the grandmother of Nahel, who was fatally shot by police during the traffic stop, pleaded with and asked the rioters to cease their activities, following five consecutive nights of turmoil.
