France remembers Algerian massacre 50 years on

Politicians, historians and protesters gathered in Paris to mark the 50th anniversary of a police crackdown on Algerian anti-war demonstrators that has become one of the most shameful episodes of modern French history.

The events of 17 October 1961 are considered a massacre by many Algerians, who claim up to 300 members of their community died at the hands of the Paris police.

Many are angry that the French government has never officially apologized for the bloody attack – which does not appear in school history books – and that the authorities still dispute the death toll.

According to officials, less than a handful of protesters died, while historians say the number of Algerians killed – some of them beaten and thrown into the river Seine – was between 50 and 120.

I read that article myself.

Immigrant Muslims are still a pain in the ass for France to this day.

Immigrants who dislike their host country should just go the fuck home. If they make it their objective to cause a ruckus over and over, deport them.

Another tidbit about French brutality of their colonial period was the anti-antisemitism represented in the 1973 movie Papillon.

The internet ruined the extra judicial techniques that were effective back in the day.

Protesting for equality is not creating a ruckus and does not justify massacring them, Mark.
And the root cause of the problem was colonization, and brutalizing and pillaging nations.
Still being done but now it is called “regime change”.

Like the woman who wears a mini skirt and get’s raped so it’s her fault, when a protestor marches for freedom they deserve to be killed; right?  How trumpish of you.

Skin pigments or scarcity of it determines whether one have basic human rights or not according to some.
