Jordan Bardella, leader of France’s far-right National Rally party, was hit on the head with an egg Saturday, just days after another incident in which a protester threw flour at him.

Bardella was at an event in Moissac, southwest France, to promote his latest book when a man broke the egg on his head.

The suspected attacker, a 74-year-old man, was arrested and taken into custody for violence against a public official, prosecutor Montauban Bruno Sauvage told AFP.

The Marsha P. Johnson method suggests that a brick is more effective at creating change.

Make fascists scared again.

With the price of produce?

[-] Dremor@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

US prices are laughable right now. With the price of one egg you could buy a dozen in France.

Not if you let right wingers take over!

I'm not so sure.. We had a shortage on eggs recently (maybe still ongoing). I bought 12 eggs for 3.94€ last week.

"Violence", gotta love the special treatment government gives the rich. Noones getting arrested if you reverse the roles

[-] luciferofastora@feddit.org 1 points 5 months ago

I mean, hitting someone with an object, whether solid or fragile, is violence. Mild violende is still violence. Justified violence is still violence.

It should be up to a court to decide the severity of the assault and whether it warrants punitive action. In a fair and just society at least.

And in a fair and just society, the decision should be a reprimand because judicial encouragement of violence is a bad idea, but no further action.
