Marine Le Pen, the anti-immigration candidate in France’s election, unleashed a social-media campaign attacking minority communities after successive nights of violence in the ghettos around Paris.
Some satellite towns around the capital have seen violent protests almost every night. Police have made multiple arrests, Agence France-Presse reported.
Security forces have been the target of gangs of scum that nothing seems to be able to stop anymore, and certainly not the courts in a overall context of decadence,” Le Pen said in a statement.
With fears about immigration and public security providing the backdrop to the French election campaign, Le Pen started an online petition to support the police as her aides and supporters used social media to condemn the protesters and heap blame for problem on the Socialist government.
