The Spin

These attacks represent growing safety concerns at public events in France. Over the last decade or so, from bombings to needle attacks, criminals and terror groups have exploited fun and safe activities to capitalize on their large attendance. While the police have responded well and arrested many, this tragedy calls for more surveillance and health protocols to help mitigate future incidents.

These attacks result from the Socialist Party's agenda that first launched the Fête de la Musique in 1982. While Paris was a much nicer city back then, the progressive ideology of its founders has since flourished, leading to the littered streets, sexual assaults, and syringe attacks seen over the weekend. Paris is in decline, and it's all thanks to the liberal, anti-French elites who continue to run the country.
