Reporter's Notebook: Riots in Paris streets ahead of Macron address

Paris braces for the possibility of more violence
Officials have closed city landmarks and deployed thousands of police officers over concerns of a second wave of violent protests. Greg Palkot reports.
PARIS – France has been rocked by violence again, anti-government protesters battling police and triggering damage in the heart of Paris and elsewhere. As many as 2,000 people were arrested, a record in the history of France for one day. Some 264 were injured, including 39 police.
This is the fourth week of the protests and follows another weekend of violence which caused over a billion dollars in damages to businesses and others.
It started out as a revolt against a hike in taxes on gasoline and diesel fuel -- hence the yellow vests worn by the activists, standard emergency gear in French cars -- aimed by the French government at dealing with global warming.
It has morphed into a broader attack on high taxes and low wages in France.
“At the end of the day,” Mathilde Poset, one of the yellow vest protesters, reportedly said, “we get the impression that we’re modern slaves.”
