Protest Watch #3 - France

When the French embark on "revolution," they do so with their characteristic élan and sense of entitlement. On at least three occasions in three French cities (Paris, Grenoble, Rennes), militants have entered supermarkets, filled grocery carts with food, converged simultaneously in the checkout lanes, and then refused to pay. Other militants working in parallel hand out flyers and carry banners. Management is forced to negotiate and in the interest of getting rid of the protesters and returning to business as normal, capitulates to their demands. The militants then apparently distribute their take to people in need.

The group's distributed tract ends with this (my translation):

Discounts of 100% before the final close-out of capitalism
