Crazy day in Paris
On December 8th, another round of intense protest took place in the streets of Paris.
The gilets jaunes mouvement encompasses a wide mix of people, including violent extremist elements.
A huge number of police forces was deployed to counter disgruntled protesters fed up with the current French government.
I spent the day around the Champs-Elysées to get a sense of what was happening.
I was glad I took a helmet and proper protective gear with me, as lots of projectiles were flying from above.!
Great work... you should hashtag #photofeed and #photocircle

Hi there, sorry I'm replying so late, I was away for a while.
I went there to document the event, it is quite a historical mouvement - no protest had been that violent in recent years in France.
I was lucky enough not to get hurt myself, indeed!
I felt sad of what was happened in Paris
Hope the good things will covered this country soon
Thanks for the good wishes @fararizky !
Great job! I don't really understand what is happening in Paris, but you manage to capture that moment, so intense. I hope everything will end well. Stay safe!

STOPIn my case you don't have to explain to me how difficult it is to witness or be in a situation like that ... I live in Venezuela, and we have had very difficult times. you can see it in photos that have traveled the world. Your job of demonstrating what happens in Paris is great. take care of you always
Hi @wisejg, I've been following quite closely what's happening in Venezuela. I hope all is going alright for you and your family over there!
