I'm constantly surprised and disappointed this hasn't happened.
In France, we take to the streets for the smallest issue (or so they say), and the world mocks us. Meanwhile the gun crazy crowd in the US only ever uses their god given arms to gun down their neighbours and schoolmates. Great job!
I like to show my students the clip of French firefighters protesting and how they're making police pull back. There's a lesson in there about teamwork and being prepared.
We don't mock you guys for that. There's plenty other things to use for mocking the French. We're secretly in awe of the liberal application of the guillotine in a class struggle.
The world mocks you only as standard preset punchlines. Its more upholding tradition than actually funny or real.
For rioting over small shit, I assure you you have our utmost respect.
Pretty sure you wouldn't use firearms against your government if you had them either.
