French police have detained 12 suspects after 145 people reported being pricked with syringes during the country’s annual street music festival, officials said Sunday.

Millions of people took to the streets across France on Saturday evening for the Fete de la Musique, with authorities reporting “unprecedented crowds” in Paris.

Before the party, posts on social media had called for women to be targeted during the festivities.

      You’re just trying to make people think badly about trans people. I don’t believe you’re being genuine.

        Please explain to me how pointing out the perps are men does anything besides fuel bigotry.

        What is a policy we would then enact that would effect exclusively men that magically fixes the issue, which would justify the bigotry?

          What are you even on about? Policy? Just raise boys better and put an end to red pill terrorism.

          You love men. I get it. Go hold a sign that says, “save men!”

            You are incapable of understanding your own bigotry because you have normalized it.

            There’s no way to raise men in a way that sheilds them from the social pressures of toxic masculinity.

            Blaming individuals or an entire gender for systemic issues will always be a malicious and fruitless waste of time and energy.

              This comment is what a red pill, maga-loving troglodyte who hates progress and equality would say. This comment sounds like somebody who doesn’t know what terf’s are and would definitely use the term out of context while masquerading online as somebody with an ounce of intelligence.
