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.

      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?
