    The 25 years old Australian woman who got ambushed and gang rapped by 5 africans in the center of Paris just a few days ago. Sad and no safety at all in this city. Deployed 75k troops and policemen for what? No result at all

    One only has to look at France and see what's happening. Illegal migration a plan to remain in power used by many countries in EU. Democrats must have looked at EU plan and trying it out in USA.

  • @soytitv4114
    The Intel of Paris Law enforcement is so very poor.
  • @standup9720
    Nearly all French police are in Paris so it's a free for all in rural France... Only the start I'm afraid..
  • @grondhero
    I wonder if there are any ethnic groups recently arrived that don't like the European lifestyle, that would do such a thing? 🤔
  • @hifijohn
    Maybe Paris wasnt such a good idea.
