That's the point though really. the french know how to protest. And how to maintain protest. Granted it generally does involve setting fire to things.

We don't seem to be able to maintain protest in the same way. It devolves quickly into unfocused rioting and that generally turns into looting.

The french organise benefits claimants into hit squads and raid a supermarket for food. The British randomly loot trainers and vodka, and trash shops in a rage with nowhere to go.
