This, from Reddit, pretty much sums up how much of a joke the French justice system and government has become.
Can't wait for next year's elections.
"
How after being arrested for (i) being radicalized, (ii) attempting to join ISIS in Syria, (iii) plotting attacks, he is not incarcerated? No no, he is under house arrest with his electronic bracelet deactivated 5 hours a day because you know he is not dangerous at all and should be able to walk free. And guess what, he carries a terrorist attack, who would have seen that coming?"
Russian politician behind anti-gay law wants to decriminalise domestic violence.....

EDIT: regarding the whole "Russian politician behind anti-gay law wants to decriminalise domestic violence" thing, i'm going to quote this post from reddit user "downvoteme2oblivion":
Quote:I don't know what is happening in your country, but in Russia this happens because not so long ago there was a decriminalization of beating up somebody on the street (you need to pay a compensation, but if you'll be caught once again - you'll get criminal charges). So her argument goes something like this (this is what I've read in Russian media): Why I can beat up complete stranger and kinda get away with it, but if I slap my kids ass for bad behavior I will go to jail?
I'm wildly paraphrasing here, and English is not my first language, so if something sounds weird, tell me and I will try to phrase it differently.
And I'm not agreeing with this, just letting everybody know, one of the reason why this is happening.
