Diversity Macht Frei

Watch out for the hate train
Last week, I mentioned that, in the context of diversity, a random event could ultimately lead to a civil war. Here we have an illustration of this principle in microcosm.
Short version: some brown people took a shortcut across a railway track and were struck by a train. One died; one is in a critical condition. A bunch of other brown people then rioted, started fires and attacked cars to protest against this. French law prohibits identifying their ethnicity so journalists typically use the euphemism “jeunes” [youths] to describe brown perps.
Around twenty youths caused damage and set fire to five cars on Saturday evening in the Saint-Maurice-Pellevoisin district in Lille, close to the scene of a train accident that caused the death of a young person, the prefecture announced. On Saturday evening, around 11 pm, “about twenty youths, in a very agitated state, staged a demonstration, there was damage, bins were set on fire and five vehicles torched,” a spokesperson for the Nord prefecture said to the Agence France-Presse on Sunday. “The fires were quickly contained and there was an arrest,” she added.
According to the prefecture and according to initial indications from the inquiry, four youths climbed a fence to take a shortcut and then walked on the rails. They were struck by a TER train travelling between Lille and Dunkerque, just over a kilometre from the Lille-Flandres station, not far from the Caulier subway station, in this working-class part of the Saint-Maurice-Pellevoisin district. A 20-year-old youth died on Saturday afternoon, another 18-year-old is in a critical condition, a third has been gravely injured but his life is not in danger. The fourth person injured was able to make it home on Saturday, according to the Lille emergency services.
Incidentally, The mayor of Lille is the Socialist Martine Aubry who wrote a book called “Pour changer de civilisation” [To change civilisation].
