I'm french (and I speak English at all, sorry), I participed to social demonstration in februar and march 2006.
I'm disagree with you (author of message). Why ?
Because I can't to accept politicians, who are thinking by election and use demagogic ideas, decide to me. I know what is nice for me. And politicians are far that french nation.
In philosophic term : when a guy decide for you that it's good for you, you don't exist. So, the life is an himself affirmation (i don't if it is right which formulation... :s).
So, if you don't understand french mentality, it's so simply : we aren't the same culture. So don't say that french people are crazy, because it's just a different logic.
If you want to say me, contact to University of Paris 1.
