I see nothing to indicate what their position is vis a vis French involvement in Africa (but I'm going to guess they are not friendly to it). Second, even if they weren't, it doesn't mean that the contradictions between labour and capital aren't increasing in a way that can endanger the rule of the French bourgeoisie. The entire reason why we are seeing the postwar compromise be rolled back is because it's no longer sustainable. The combination of the falling rate of profit and decline of Western imperialism means that this compromise can no longer coexist with the kinds of profits the bourgeoisie need to keep the system going. That means that even maintaining elements of this compromise will increasingly come to endanger the entire capitalist system by starving it of profits. It serves more or less the same function of cutting off sources of imperialist super profits. Anti-imperialist revolution from without and the conquest and consolidation of concessions from within both serve to suffocate the capitalist system by denying it its lifeblood of profitability.

There is no middle ground here even if you consider yourself an anti-communist/socialist, you must still see the necessity of the welfare state and the well being of citizens to have security in their futures. Making the average laborer poorer and forcing old people to work for longer or die goes against their humanism.

If third world revolutions are successful, then this will necessarily explode the postwar social democratic compromise. The result will be an increase in revolutionary potential of the first world, in which case it's best to already have a robust worker's movement to take advantage of this potential. Alternatively, if elements of this compromise can be maintained amidst the decline of Western imperialism, then it will (like third world revolution) starve capital of profits and hasten its demise.
>revolution would imply losing most of their privileges?Complete bullshit. Imperialism is not necessary to maintain high standards of living. China is rapidly approaching Western living standards without imperialism. It's necessary to maintain high standards of living for workers AND high profits for the ruling class. If you remove the latter from the equation then imperialism becomes unnecessary for worker prosperity.
>Ehat does retirement ages have to do with advocating for communism in the first place?Raising the retirement age is a clear attack on the interests of the working class. These demonstrations are an expression of class struggle. Therefore communists should insert themselves into this struggle, help workers achieve their goals, and in the process spread class consciousness and grow our movement. Class consciousness will never spread if we don't spread it, and we can't spread it without joining the workers in their struggles and establishing ourselves as defenders of their interests. Workers aren't going to listen to a bunch of armchair intellectuals lecturing them on how they're all evil first world labour aristocrats. They will listen to people joining them on the front lines of the class struggle.

Every imperialist country has tons of people working pointless stupid jobs in things like finance, and those jobs should be slashed and drained and put into productive, useful jobs. Plus, there is the option to re-invest into more productive machinery again in a way neoliberalism has been desperately trying to fight off. I guarantee that increasing productivity to where it should be instead of letting it get retarded by neoliberal ideological choices will allow the west to both pay back imperialist material debts and maintain high living standards.

Nantes, France: The night of the barricadesThe pyromaniac at the Élysée Palace set the fire. In Nantes, as throughout France, spontaneous calls against the 49-3 brought tens of thousands of people together within a few hours. It was no longer about pensions, but about the “revolution” that was sung in chorus in the demonstration marches.
In Nantes, the repressive apparatus that has terrorized the city for months was caught off guard this time: even with all its grenades, it could not quell the rage.
For several hours, dozens of barricades burned throughout the city center. The whole heart of Nantes smells of burnt plastic and tear gas, but it’s a boost of oxygen: finally, people are raising their heads.
Various shop windows of capitalist businesses are smashed. The CRS1 assaults are kept at bay by impressive fireworks. Many trade unionists hold the street together with the youth. In the Rue de Strasbourg, the BAC2 has to flee under the throwing of Molotov cocktails. A huge fire softens the asphalt. The city center belongs to the demonstrators! Several marches move in different places in a yellow vest atmosphere. In the alleys of Bouffay, you no longer know who is demonstrating and who is coming out of the bars, because “everyone hates the police”. There is singing on the terraces. Luxury boutiques and flagships of multinationals are cleared. Until 1 a.m., the forces of order cannot move without being insulted from everywhere. At 11 p.m., a fire is still burning on the Cours des 50 Otages, and demonstrators are driven away by volleys of grenades. After midnight, the Rue de Strasbourg is still blocked, torn up and torn up again, and littered with projectiles for hundreds of meters. The word “revenge” is written in red letters on a wall.
As soon as the French state does not march several dozen militarized squadrons in our city, as soon as the union leaders do not organize the “dangerous route” requested by the prefecture, the anger of Nantes can finally unleash the full potential of its force. And the numbers don’t matter much, because this night of barricades will have made more noise than the eight previous, well-supervised processions with their tens of thousands of people. Rennes, Nantes, Paris, Marseille or Lyon, the fire is spreading.
After canceling a trip to the Gironde region, Gérald Darmanin (Minister of the Interior) convened all prefects of France this morning for a video conference on the “social situation”. Four more years with Macron are unthinkable for everyone. The calls for an “inter-union” day in a week seem ridiculous. After this night of rage, we should act without delay.
This report on the spontaneous revolt in Nantes on March 16 after the French government imposed its “pension reform” by decree (49.3) appeared on Contre Attaque on 17.32023.

1. CRS, Compagnies républicaines de sécurité. The CRS are a civilian corps (unlike the gendarmes, who are military), trained in anti-insurrection and antiriot techniques.
2. BAC, Brigade anti-criminalité. Plain clothes cops, identifiable in riot/protest situations by their orange arm bands. Used regulary in so called “sensitive areas” such as housing estates (banlieues) or economically poor or even migrant neighborhoods.

>>1401508Neoliberalism is the homeopathy of social science. It puts on a facade of rationality, but at its core, it's essentially a religion, and a frightening amount of its ideas are rooted in blind faith. It has an outer circle of true believers, people suckered in by briefly tempting arguments and emotional appeals, that is ultimately a circlejerk of useful idiots for profiteers.
They are the worst kind of grifter: the kind that actually believe their own bullshit, because otherwise they would struggle to sleep at night without booze and xannies. It is not enough for them to exploit the working class, they can't even be honest with themselves about it. They are cowards who, on some level, feel guilty for their complacency in capitalism, but lack the will to give up their privileged lives.
Despite not being outright sociopaths, neoliberals are considerably more dangerous than other ideological capitalists as a result of their self-delusion. Other cappies like ancaps have an obviously worse ideology, but they will likely always be fringe, because they are open about how vile their ideology is: they are not only aware of the inevitable result of their desired system, they desire it (see Hoppe). Neoliberals truly, genuinely believe that they are doing the right thing, which makes them viable in mainstream politics, even though in practice, their policy changes are almost always despised.

They were combining the worst aspects of Western ML and anarchism: cultish and rigid party dynamics with a lack of real organization and in-depth analysis of material conditions.
It was a license to be an edgelord for some Parisian bourgeois kids, feeling smart by writing "dude the revolution will come from the masses lmao" in national newspapers.
Not surprisingly, it turns out some of these
maos became neocons, the prime example being André Glucksmann, who advocated for a protracted people's war against the French fascist dictatorship in the early 1970s, and has supported every NATO intervention and US-led war from 1991 until his death.
There is absolutely no reason to be a
mao-spontex in 2023. You might as well try to build a time machine.
If you want to be an adventurist in France today, you should instead become an
appeliste (see
https://teddit.net/r/Anarchy101/comments/9hqb0a/what_is_appellism/)
Read the Invisible Committee, smash banks and insurance agencies,
FOUT LE ZBEUL, organize in little decentralized units, try to occupy urban spaces as long as you can and develop organic movements there, organize events for both having fun and political causes, etc.
This anarcho-situationist praxis isn't new and has its limits, and we might observe them right now in real time as long as there are riots happening in France, but they are for sure deconditioning people from the monotony of daily wagie life, they smash the things we hate and spare the ones we love, they are trying to build solidarity among angry proles despite all odds, they are in short, romantic revolutionaries in real flesh…

Armchair generals of the riots are fucking useless, material circumstances actually dictate what people are doing in the streets in France currently, it's not Hong Kong where the police is nice and protestors have money, media, and CIA backing. Protestors can't just buy gas masks, helmets, weapons and fight the cops in ranks. There's a whole galaxy of (poor) people and orgs who want different things ranging from revolution to sausage grilling acting together, and one of the most important things is damage control so too many people don't get arrested and thrown in jail or worse while maintaining a high tempo of protests and strikes. Gawking at the Zengakuren is masturbatory leftoid weeb practice anyway, there's the same in France if not better only good people try to avoid filming violent actions from well organized protestors for obvious reasons.

>>1401491>>1401592The bourgeoisie lack a coherent material analysis. They are not critical. Though they need to "have" (to exploit them) the working class in order to survive, they can do so without dialogue, through means of force, oppression, etc. The revolutionaries, on the otherhand, need to talk to the working class, they must be in dialogue with them, they are unable to act revolutionarily if they do not have dialogue with the people, for they will lack support, they will lack knowledge of the people's struggle, and they will be unable to struggle alongside the people, thus generating contradictions between them.
The bourgeoisie survive because they are in contradiction to the people (whom they dominate), the revolutionaries need to be with the people, to be in dialogue with the people, but cannot be in contradiction to the people, with whom the strength of their analysis comes. The bourgeoisie's "analysis" comes from not talking to the people, at times talking "for" the people, or "against" the people, but not "with" the people. In-fact, the bourgeois conception of objectivity is rooted mystification of bias, and enables the use of passive language, for example, to mask bias. It is a manipulative tactic. It is similarly dehumanizing as the practice of banking education, where teachers tend to treat students as mere empty vessels for which "knowledge" is to be deposited. This contradiction does not serve to create critical students, nor fortify critical teachers. It has the reverse effect. It makes them contradictions of each other. The ignorant student. The knowledgeable teacher. We see the formation of domination. The teacher dominates the student, so to speak, and becomes an authority. The means are not important. To deprive the people of the decision making ability is to dehumanize them. We are against people being an authority. But the relationship between student and teacher, so as to not have contradictions that undermine the educative objective, is to be synthesized as co-investigation in dialogical education. The teacher and the student are thereby transformed from being a teacher and a student, a dichotomy, into co-investigators who are discovering the truth. They are each at different stages of development, materially, socially, politically, and through dialogue they establish truth. The revolutionary in this instance should seek to practice revolutionary listening and to ask questions, not to quiz, but ultimately to help the student become critical, and to develop consciousness. The vocation of humans is to each become more fully human, that life is the process of becoming. The objective is self-actualization. But in capitalism, self-actualization is limited, and the process of humanization is halted by systems and by myths, each of which with an alienating character. The bourgeoisie as oppressors seek to transform the working class (the oppressed) into dehumanized persons, zombies, dead flesh, that they are entirely subservient, and receive only authorized commands, and only act on them, and surrender the desire to become more fully human, and to foreclose on critical development, to be unconscious, and to be drained of life.

Even if that is true in some sense, having a strong worker's movement means that when the contradictions between labour and capital increase (as they inevitably must) you get this kind of shit instead of the giga-cuckery you see in the US.

Article 7 of the bill “relating to the Olympic and Paralympic Games and various other provisions”, an article authorizing experimentation with the processing by algorithms of images captured by cameras or drones, was adopted on Thursday by the National Assembly after lengthy discussions. This project, which includes experimentation with so-called “intelligent” video surveillance (i.e., automatically reporting “suspicious” individuals or behavior thanks to their program) had already been adopted by the Senate.
“The Minister of the Interior justified this experimentation with algorithmic video surveillance by saying that “exceptional situations require exceptional means”, referring to the 2024 Summer Olympics. The implementation of this technique will not, however, concern only the Games: it will apply to “sporting, recreational or cultural events” in general, which “by their scale or circumstances, are particularly exposed to risks of acts of terrorism or serious attacks on the safety of people.

Well there's also this idea, a historical phenomenon where usually after a failed revolution that there's a period of dictatorial reaction and pure reactionary opportunism. It isn't very clear that France had a revolutionary period recently but it DID have a socialist in power in the 80s of all times who fucked over and abandoned the working class by embracing neoliberalism. The US did in fact go through a somewhat revolutionary period with Occupy and then the eventual Sanders movement which was crushed by the DNC rather than electoral politics which is an example of liberals going far right to protect their ways leading to an actual far right reaction. Then we have 2020 and once again co-opted movements with BLM and Sanders movement once again getting fucked.
I'm not someone who considers themselves strictly this type of Marxist or that type of Marxist whateverist, but it's during these moments where I see Leninist principles as the ONLY tactics for leftists to take. We need dictatorial-like control of our parties and ban any kind of sectarian "splits" by denying the sectarians a voice or the ability to split away. The DCCC is one of the most perfect examples of Democratic Centralism of almost any party machine there is. A leftist movement cannot just "win" nationally, they must control the finances and the party machine. This needs to happen to all left wing parties and alliances in Europe, they need to bottleneck the sectarians by taking over all the organs of finance for the party and denying a voice and resources to moderates in the party, forcing the moderates of a labor party or socialist party etc. to toe the "far left" line or be denied resources for campaigning.

On Saturday the 25th of March at Sainte-Soline, our comrade S. was hit in the head by an explosive grenade during the protest against the giant retention basins. Despite his critical condition, the prefecture deliberately prevented the emergency services from intervening at first, and from transporting him to a special care unit in a second phase. He is currently in a neurosurgical intensive care. He is still in a critical condition.
The massive outbreak of violence that the protesters have gone through led to hundreds of wounded, and many of them suffered serious physical injuries, as we can read in the various reports available. The 30 000 protesters came with the aim to block the construction site of the Sainte-Soline giant retention basin, which is a water-appropriation project defended by a minority for the benefit of a capitalist model that has nothing more to defend other than death. The violence of the armed wing of the democratic State illustrates it vividly.
In the sequence initiated by the movement against the pension reform, the police mutilates and tries to assassinate to prevent the uprising, to defend the bourgeoisie and its world. Nothing will dampen our determination to put an end to their reign. On Tuesday March the 28th and on the following days, let’s strengthen the strikes and the blockades, let’s take the streets, for S. and all the wounded and the imprisoned of our movements.
Long live the revolution.
Comrades of S.

In solidarity with Sébastien, a railway worker mutilated by the police, Sud Rail calls for an even stronger mobilization<to continue the fight and express our support for Sébastien, who was shot on Thursday 23.Sébastien, a SUD -Rail trade unionist, a railway worker in a hardware workshop for more than 25 years and father of three children, was shot by the police of Gérald Darmanin and Laurent Nunez. Thursday, in the Parisian demonstration, our comrade lost his eye following the burst of a de-encirclement grenade.
The power in place has crossed the line too many ! He orders the security forces to use weapons of war to silence social protest in the country. Desencirclement grenades are listed in the war material category by the Internal Security Code. The same day, a demonstrator had her finger torn off in Rouen by a grenade.
The SUD -Rail federation and the Union Syndicale Solidaires strongly condemn this disproportionate and illegal violence.
We demand an immediate response from those responsible for these criminal acts. The police management of a political and social crisis has the consequence of putting more and more demonstrators in serious danger.
Since the forced passage with 49-3, there has been an acceleration of police violence against demonstrators. This violence, which recalls that exercised in recent years against young people in working-class neighborhoods, against trade unionists or against the Yellow Vests movement, is unacceptable. It reveals a strategy of terror and decay organized at the top of the state.
Where is democracy when a government prohibits gatherings and demonstrations, represses, beats up, mutilates the social movement ?
The SUD -Rail federation and the Union Syndicale Solidaires, in connection and support with the family of our activist, will do everything possible to ensure that this act is punished in proportion to its level of violence. As a sign of solidarity, we call on workers to mobilize as strongly as possible in the coming hours and days.
Rolling back this government is the fight of our mutilated comrade ! This is what we will achieve as soon as possible !

The media is trying to write hit-pieces about S. but I have to say they are making him sound pretty based:
>had previously taken part in ultra-left demonstrations on several occasions, sometimes integrating the black block.
<His presence had been reported by the services during the G7 in Biarritz in the summer of 2019.
>He is also known to the services for having taken part in the protest against the airport of Notre-Dame-des-Landes.
<He held leadership positions in Toulouse within the revolutionary communist local.
>implicated in the investigation attack on judicial protection of youth (PJJ) in Labège.
I hope our comrade does not die and leaves his coma.

Sainte-Soline : l’enregistrement qui prouve que le SAMU n’a pas eu le droit d’intervenir
Alors qu’une polémique s’est installée sur la possibilité de secourir les blessés lors de la manifestation contre la mégabassine, samedi 28 mars, une équipe de la Ligue des droits de l’homme a eu, en direct, confirmation que les forces de l’ordre interdisaient au SAMU d’intervenir. « Le Monde » a eu connaissance de cette conversation téléphonique.
Par Franck Johannès
Les secours n’ont pas été empêchés d’accéder au site de Sainte-Soline lors de la manifestation contre la mégabassine du samedi 25 mars, a affirmé Farnam Faranpour, le chef du pôle des urgences de Niort, dans les Deux-Sèvres. Il a en revanche reconnu qu’il y avait eu des difficultés pour accéder aux blessés les plus graves, notamment aux deux jeunes gens entre la vie et la mort.
« Pour ce jeune homme gravement blessé, il y a eu un premier appel aux pompiers qui sont partis, mais la géolocalisation n’a pas permis de trouver le lieu, a expliqué l’urgentiste à France 3 Nouvelle-Aquitaine, mardi 28 mars. Donc, nous avons attendu d’autres appels pour préciser le lieu et nous avons finalement envoyé le SMUR de Ruffec qui était le plus proche des lieux. » Mais quand l’équipe est arrivée, elle a été arrêtée par des manifestants blessés qui avaient besoin de soins.
La Ligue des droits de l’homme (LDH) et plusieurs associations estiment, au contraire, que les forces de l’ordre ont interdit au SAMU 79 de se rendre sur le terrain de la manifestation, et disposent d’un enregistrement téléphonique qui semble l’établir. La LDH avait envoyé samedi six équipes de trois observateurs sur le terrain, en liaison avec quatre autres personnes, restées en appui dans une salle, dans la commune de Melle (Deux-Sèvres). Parmi eux, trois avocats, Sarah Hunet-Ciclaire, Chloé Saynac et Pierre-Antoine Cazau, ainsi qu’un médecin Jérémie F., généraliste en centre de santé, qui ne souhaite pas donner son nom.

>>1415327 Pas opportun C’est dans cette salle qu’a été enregistrée, par la LDH, la conversation de 7 minutes 30 avec le SAMU, que Le Monde a pu consulter. Le téléphone du médecin sonne constamment, les équipes sur place lui signalent ici une plaie cervicale, là une mâchoire fracassée ou une fracture ouverte ; et il est convenu qu’il peut servir de coordinateur. Il a déjà appelé le médecin régulateur du SAMU, d’abord pour réclamer un hélicoptère, ensuite parce que les observateurs de la LDH lui ont dit que les secours n’arrivaient pas, et qu’il y avait au moins un blessé dont le pronostic vital était engagé.
Il est 14 h 50 lorsque le docteur F. rappelle les pompiers.
> Un pompier : Je viens d’avoir le SAMU sur place qui me dit, on n’envoie personne sur place, le point de regroupement des victimes est à l’église de Sainte-Soline, une fois qu’ils seront là-bas, l’engagement des moyens sera décidé.
< Le médecin : Ecoutez, je pense que c’est une, que ce n’est pas, enfin, je pense que ce n’est pas opportun comme décision.
> Le pompier : Alors moi je suis ni décideur, ni…
< Le médecin : Attendez, attendez. Mais moi je vais vous expliquer. Moi, je suis médecin et en fait, là, il y a des observateurs de la LDH, la Ligue des droits de l’homme qui sont sur place, qui disent que c’est calme depuis une demi-heure. Donc en fait, vous pouvez intervenir et moi, mon évaluation à distance avec des éléments parcellaires que j’ai, c’est qu’il faut une évacuation immédiate.
> Le pompier : Je vais vous repasser le SAMU. Ne quittez pas. (…)
< Le SAMU : Allo, oui le SAMU, bonjour.
> Le médecin : Oui, c’est vous que j’ai eu tout à l’heure au téléphone ?
< Le SAMU : Oui.
> Le médecin : Super. Vous en êtes où, là, de la plus grosse urgence absolue de ce que j’ai comme impression, moi, de loin ?
< Le SAMU : Alors déjà le problème, c’est que vous n’êtes pas sur place, donc c’est un peu compliqué. On a eu un médecin sur place et on lui a expliqué la situation, c’est qu’on n’enverra pas d’hélico ou de SMUR sur place, parce qu’on a ordre de ne pas en envoyer par les forces de l’ordre.
> Le médecin : OK, est-ce que… Alors moi je suis avec des observateurs de la Ligue des droits de l’homme qui disent que leurs observateurs sur place disent que c’est calme depuis trente minutes et qu’il est possible d’intervenir ?
< Le SAMU : Je suis d’accord avec vous, vous n’êtes pas le premier à nous le dire. Le problème, c’est que c’est à l’appréciation des forces de l’ordre dès qu’on est sous un commandement, qui n’est pas nous.
> Le médecin : D’accord.
< Le SAMU : Donc, pour l’instant, on attend de rassembler les victimes au niveau de l’église de Sainte-Soline, c’est ce qui est en train d’être fait, avec des moyens pompiers qui se déplacent sur site pour prendre en charge et ramener. Pour l’instant, pas de moyens de SMUR ou d’hélico qui peuvent se pointer sur place.
> Le médecin : La LDH me dit qu’il y a des médecins militaires qui viennent d’arriver sur place. Est-ce que vous avez cette information vous aussi ou pas ?
< Le SAMU : Les médecins militaires, ils sont là pour les forces de l’ordre. C’est leur service de médecine pour les forces de l’ordre.
> Le médecin : La Ligue des droits de l’homme a demandé s’il y avait un contact au niveau du commandement à transmettre pour qu’on puisse intervenir ?
< Le SAMU : Négatif, négatif.
> Le médecin : Est-ce que vous voulez que je vous passe la Ligue des droits de l’homme ?
< Le SAMU : Non plus. On gère les victimes pour l’instant et les secours, j’aurais pas le temps d’aller… No.1415335
>>1415332On n’a pas l’autorisation
> Le médecin : D’accord, d’accord, je veux juste faire accélérer le truc.
< Le SAMU : Il faut qu’ils fassent le point, dans ce cas il faut qu’ils contactent la préfecture.
> L’avocate de la LDH Chloé Saynac : Vous avez interdiction d’intervenir ? Vous confirmez que vous avez interdiction d’intervenir ?
< Le SAMU : On n’a pas l’autorisation d’envoyer des secours sur place, parce que c’est considéré comme étant dangereux sur place.
> L’avocate : Et si vous n’y allez pas, ce ne serait pas une non-assistance à personne en danger ?
< Le SAMU : Nous devons avoir nos secours en sécurité également, malheureusement on n’a pas l’autorisation de les envoyer comme ça.
> L’avocate : Vous n’avez pas l’autorisation des forces de l’ordre ? Ou de ?
< Le SAMU : On n’a pas l’autorisation de toutes les institutions sur place, pour l’instant, on est sous leur commandement.
> L’avocate : Quelles institutions du coup ? On a besoin d’analyser très clairement parce qu’il y a quelqu’un qui peut décéder, donc pour que les responsabilités soient établies on a besoin de savoir.
< Le SAMU : On fait au mieux, mais malheureusement, il y en a d’autres…
> L’avocate : Qui interdit l’accès à ces personnes en danger grave, vital ?
> Le médecin : Et donc vous confirmez que c’est la préfecture qui a interdit l’accès ? C’est ça, en fait ?
< Le SAMU : Non, c’est pas la préfecture qui interdit l’accès, je vous dis que c’est le commandement sur place. On ne peut pas faire plus
> Le médecin : OK. Comment on fait pour contacter le commandement sur place ?
< Le SAMU : Ben, il faut passer par la préfecture. Je ne peux pas vous les passer directement.
> Le médecin : OK. Est-ce qu’on peut faire le 17 ? On peut avoir le commandement sur place ? Vous croyez ?
> L’avocate : Et c’est quoi, vous, votre contact avec eux ?
< Le SAMU : Nous, malheureusement, le SAMU, on est juste là, en fait on nous demande d’envoyer des moyens qu’on envoie à des points donnés, on ne peut pas faire plus.
> L’avocate : Je sais bien, je comprends, mais on essaie de vous permettre de travailler là, parce que vous êtes empêchés de travailler.
< Le SAMU : Oui, oui, mais du coup, on monopolise une ligne une urgence. Merci beaucoup, au revoir. »Le SAMU 79 a indiqué sur Twitter : « La justice fera son travail, et nous nous mettrons à leur disposition pour leur donner l’ensemble des informations nécessaires comme nous le faisons dans chaque enquête. »

>>1415332>>1415335Kafka was right, we are all going to die from stupid bureaucratic procedures like "we can't treat wounded people because the commandment said we can't go beyond this area, you need to contact the prefect to get an authorization to heal wounded protestors beyond this imaginary line", as if the local head of the police mafia was going to authorize any of that shit by the time another grenade explodes nearby.
Today here they seem to have exhausted almost all of their ammo before the end of the afternoon, the fucking dumbasses. They were sending CS gas grenades in the river, it's like the prefect gave them the order to go full retard.
