I think the main point is that this isn't '89. The French riots aren't going to spread
throughout the Western world. There's no political position, leaders, etc.

Hmmm...and how about petrol bombing and burning nursery school buildings, post offices, and Churches? Or shooting police officers? And.....is burning cars also a standard prank in Berlin and Brussels?

So far this year, not counting the cars burnt in the current riots, over 20,000 (twenty thousand) cars have been burnt in France. So perhaps it's less serious than it looks.
