Years before France was inflamed with anger at the police killing of a teenager during a traffic stop, there was the notorious Théo Luhaka case.
Mr. Luhaka, 22, a Black soccer player, was cutting through a known drug-dealing zone in his housing project in a Paris suburb in 2017 when the police swept in to conduct identity checks.
The most annoying thing about Europe as a whole is they’re denialist attitude about racism. The general thinking is either, real racism only exists in America or I’m not a nazi so I can’t be racist
Holy shit! Looks like a lot of the chaos that consumed America is being imported to Western Europe
It was always there. Europeans are just finally having to actually deal with the fact that they’re historically ethnostates and being a multicultural society isn’t as easy as they think, especially when things start getting economically rougher and you have to learn to pull together rather than turn the knives on the “other”.

Yes, they just made up the repeated race riots in France…

What do you mean by “too many too quickly”? If it’s about immigrants, I don’t see how it’s actually relevant here. Police attacks mentioned in the article (and that were happening in general) were against black/minority French citizens, not newly taken in immigrants. Plus the police force itself doesn’t consist of immigrants.
And Europeans becoming poorer is a wealth redistribution problem first and foremost (with an aging population sprinkled in).
Sure, there are shitty people amongst immigrants, but in a similar proportion to the amount of shitty people in general. It’s not the reason. Kinda looks like shifting the blame.
