On Sunday, Some 160,000 people, including far-right activists and members of France’s yellow vest movement, protested across the country against a bill requiring everyone to have a special virus pass to enter restaurants and mandating COVID-19 vaccinations for all health care workers.
Similar protests were held in neighboring Italy.
Meanwhile, German police violently shut down a protest in Berlin, while a hundred thousand Frenchmen protested against Macron’s vaccine passports on Sunday in Paris.
One man died of a heart attack and over 600 protestors were arrested in Berlin on Sunday. He died after being interrogated by police.
The United Nations Special Rapporteur on Torture is investigating the use of excessive force.
The hypocrisy of The far-left Berlin government is beyond control, a week before they have permitted 80,000 largely unmasked people at a gay pride march.
Despite the banned, tens of thousands of freedom-loving citizens showed up on Sunday all the same to exercise their constitutional right to protest.
But the 2,250 riot police officers apparently had orders to crack down on people seeking freedom from Covid lockdowns.
A video showed police apparently punching a sitting young boy of about 10 in the face, after dragging his mother away:
