Notice the protests are already starting
by Diana Former Forum moderator May 6, 2007 9:36PM PDT
The supporters of president-elect Nicolas Sarkozy were still celebrating last night in the Place de la Concorde, the square where Marie Antoinette faced the guillotine, when the Bastille erupted.

A small group of anarchists wearing masks were the vanguard of the violent protest. They hurled rocks at police, who shot back tear gas to disperse the crowd.

Nationwide nearly 400 cars went up in flames, many of them in the Paris suburbs that were the focus of immigrant riots in 2005. The interior minister at the time had dismissed the protesters as "scum." Now that same man is France's president elect.

Seems they don't like his idea of putting people to work rather than the dole.
