I don't much hold with people posting political stuff on this board. But being in an area subject to French internet, if I want to use goggle - say to search for Reily's or Didier Drevet barrels or other topics I'm interested in, I have to get French government permission per below. France has always been centralized since Louis XIV, 50% of the economy is still controlled by the French State, and labor law down to the amount of time you must give for coffee breaks is regulated by a massive 1921 law passed in the Socialist/Marxist era which is thousands of pages long. But this intrusion "to protect people" from Google is really a bridge too far. I search using yahoo when in Paris to avoid this.

That's very interesting. Do you know why the French Gov't. felt this was necessary, and why they imposed this for Google searches but still permit Yahoo as a search engine?

I'd have to assume that it was people of the Liberal Left Socialist persuasion who saw the need for this. I don't speak or read French, but I'll bet this was ostensibly done to "protect" the French people from radical notions like personal freedom.

Can't read French, can anyone give me a quick synopsis on what is being said?

Loose translation, "Isn't it to bad Hillary wasn't elected in 2016 so we could have kept robbing and stealing and thieving without limits or boundaries."

At the very bottom of the message it reads,

"Damn those old white males for showing up at the polls."

Treblig, I think your French is parfait. However, you missed the part about "coming to a theater near you if the regressives get rid of Trump."

Thank You James, I pride myself on the way I butcher other country's languages.

They're trying hard but they've never seen anything like this guy. They're finding out what an Alpha Dog really looks like.

Vive la France!

Although we tend to criticize France and the French, it's good to remember that they are one of our more reliable partners in the war on terror. Particularly active in Africa. Back about 40 years ago, I found myself briefing the 82d Airborne G2 on the counterintelligence threat in Zaire. They had a battalion ready to go on a rescue mission: Whites being held captive by a rebel group in the town of Kolwezi. Turns out the 82d did not have to go. A Foreign Legion airborne regiment went instead. Successful mission.

So what does that have to do with anything...just a brain fArt I guess.

Would you agree that Islam is going to destroy France ?

I think Larry means that it is great that France restricts the rights of its' own citizens while it kow-tows to Muslim immigrants.
