Tributes to Samuel Paty

Translations by Fousesquawk.








France is in mourning (and I hope outrage) over the beheading death of Samuel Paty by a Muslim refugee near Paris last week. I am posting some of the tributes-and a disgusting disruption in Lyon.


"Don't touch my teacher"



"Solidarity with all the teachers of France"

Then there is this tweet (above) from Belgium courtesy of Sam van Rooy

"Let this sink in: Islamic youths on scooters in Lyon try to intimidate police and disrupt a tribute to the French teacher beheaded by an 18-year-old Chechen Muslim."

Note: There are conflicting reports as to the cause of these actions by the young men on motor scooters. The below article states that they were actually protesting the suicide death of a young man named Idir Mederess (22) in a Lyon prison in September. The title of the article reads: "Free-for-all to thumb the nose at police at edge of gathering for Samuel Paty." (Lyonmag.com)
