French highschoolers are rioting
Following blockades in some high schools to protest the lack of teachers and crumbling buildings, several hundred high school students are going on strike, blockading their schools, and going out to protest (1000 arrests since Tuesday). They are being beaten by the cops (one has already been shot in the eye with an LBD and has probably lost it; another took a tear gas grenade to the teeth and no longer has them). The movement is spreading to university students, and MPs from LFI/Mélenchon's party are protecting the teenagers from the police by interposing themselves
