In the U.S., Democrats like Rep. Ro Khanna have claimed that the "fiery but mostly peaceful protests" in France are because "students and teachers are asking for safe schools, enough teachers and smaller classes."
That is, as usual, a bunch of BS. The supposed quest for smaller classrooms has led to arson, property destruction, looting and attacks on police.
Another round of riots we're to believe is because people want educational reforms is expected tomorrow (hey, everybody who only wants smaller classrooms carries a communist flag when they're protesting, right?).
The Louvre in Paris has made this announcement that left people with some questions:
🇫🇷 ⚠️🇫🇷 Chers visiteurs, Sur la recommandation de la préfecture de police de Paris, le musée du Louvre sera exceptionnellement fermé ce samedi 24 octobre. Le musée national Eugène-Delacroix sera également fermé. 👉 Les modalités de remboursement des billets sont à retrouver sur https://t.co/zl8Bg2qhB7 Nous vous prions de nous excuser de la gêne occasionnée. 🌎⚠️🇫🇷 Dear visitors, Following the recommendation of the Paris Police Prefecture, the Louvre Museum will be exceptionally closed this Saturday, October 24.

This is what the post translates to:
Dear visitors,

We apologize for any inconvenience caused.
"Exceptionally closed," eh?
There must be a reason, right?
@MuseeLouvre Why are you closing?

Why? What's going on?

Oh, there's a reason alright.

You can't make this stuff up, because unfortunately you don't have to.
@MuseeLouvre Hope you are moving the priceless art somewhere safe. Since your police and the buffoon running your country won’t protect it.

Can we depend on the French to protect the Louvre and all of the western treasures within it?

If Macron is unable or unwilling to protect it we'd fully expect him to find a way to blame Trump for not supporting the rioters' goal of smaller classrooms.
Or maybe Macron will say the Louvre had to close because of "foreign manipulation."
