PROTESTERS ARRESTED IN PARIS

Thousands of protesters organized in Paris on Saturday to condemn President Emmanuel Macron’s new security law that many say is an affront to their individual liberties, which essentially makes photographing or filming police officers a crime. The bill includes a provision that would make it illegal to broadcast “the face or any other identifying element” of a police officer if the government believes it would cause harm to the officer who had been filmed. 
To disperse protesters, police shot powerful blasts from water cannons into the crowd of the men, women, and children who were rallying. According to photos taken at the rally, other protesters were seen with bloodied faces after being beaten by police.
You Must Obey
Gerald Darmanin, the French interior minister, announced on Twitter that the arrests occurred after “several hundred thugs had come to commit violence.”
Critics of the bill say it is too vague and prevents the public and news media from holding police in the country accountable. 
According to France 24, several rights groups and journalists’ unions denounced “arbitrary arrests” by Paris police. The journalists’ union condemned “mass arrests, unjustified charges breaking up the procession” and the detention of people beyond the legal limit “for no legitimate reason.”
TREND FORECAST: As the “Greatest Depression” worsens, social unrest will escalate, and the fight between the people and politicians will intensify as governments impose wide ranges of anti-freedom mandates to quell uprisings and protests. 
There will be major endeavors throughout much of the world to form new, anti-establishment, pro-democracy political parties, and social/religious movements.
