The mainstream French media has given very little to no coverage of this incident.


This week, France is reeling over the latest murder of one of its citizens by 4-5 "youths". Earlier this month (July 5), Philippe Monguillot, French bus driver in the southwestern town of Bayonne, was beaten into a brain-dead coma by a group of young men who, upon boarding, were asked to provide valid tickets and to don face masks. On Friday, it was announced that Monguillot had been taken off life support and has died.

So it now appears that a total of 5 "young men" are charged with this crime, 2 of them with the actual murder with the other 3 charged with offenses relating to the attack. As is the custom in Europe, identities of the attackers have been obscured. (Full names of suspects are not released.) It is for the public to figure out who the attackers are and what threats they face from certain segments of the population. Apparently, in this case, the French media has described the suspects as "marginal Frenchmen".​

Can you guess who might have done it?

This article actually names those arrested, from 'The French blog, Francois DeSouche has posted a Facebook page of INSTRUCTEURS POLICE GENDARMERIE (Police Gendarmerie Instructors), which lists 4 suspects' names as, Mohamed C., Mohammed A., Moussa B. and Sélim Z.'

And now French people might be beginning to figure out why Americans in many parts of the United States have long avoided the use of public transportation and buses.

Maybe if your marketing people throw in a Charlie Hebdo reference, and situate the "story" in the suburbs of Paris, your psy ops might get more traction.

the Guardian wrote:Teacher decapitated in Paris named as Samuel Paty, 47
Terrorism investigation opened after 18-year-old attacker shot dead by police

A history teacher decapitated outside his secondary school in a Paris suburb on Friday after he showed a caricature of the prophet Muhammad to his pupils has been named...


About Macron's latest pearl-clenching close-up, Nico Johnson wrote:Erin O’Toole took a more solid stance on this issue, saying “if France is attacked, all democracies are attacked.”

Does the work of the suburban teacher in this story really represent "France" and the kinds of "expression" people long to set free? To be published for millions?

Is this really the summit of "European culture?" Charlie Hebdo's anti-"other people" caca humor? Cartoons that are as funny as Jerry Lewis's Asian characters, or Bill Dana's portrayal of Mexicans. All of these are really crude ethnic smears aimed at "others" that only the rich can afford to bring into every home of the nation. Only the rich could have delivered the generalized racism of Jerry Lewis or Bill Dana's portrayals to millions of otherwise innocent eyeballs. Only the rich can afford to provide an entire nation with "racist friends" of your parents. Only the rich are "free" to create this kind of "expression" that has strong social effects.

Perhaps the marketing people, now that they're all working from home, can reflect a bit more on their "work" as commercial media con-artists, enflaming people just to get eyeballs-on-SUV-ads.
