Well you are in France, and love your government and it's policies when it benifits, now you have to deal with the results of your form of Governmental intervention in social activities. To the French any white cloth on a stick can be considered a French War Weapon and they have not banned that yet.

I don't imagine a bunch of foreigners joining your facebook group will really be considered "voting" to save anything.

with detailed instructions on how to drop them fashionably. French weapons, never fired, only dropped once.

Europe (see Germany) has been on a ban paintball kick for awhile, so far nothing. France need not panic, till they go after the NERF guns.

Do you really wonder/not understand why people call Americans arrogant?

Truth. Read up on the French entrenchments leading up to WWII.  It was pure chance that the initial German offensive didn't fail right there at the beginning.

It helped that the Germans went right around the Maginot Line and through Belgium. The French stayed in the fortifacations still thinking the Germans would smash temselves into them WW1 style, till it was too late, and the Germans were coming up behind them.

I was going to say your English could definitely use some work, but you speak English much better than I speak French, so I really can't criticize much.
