The death of young Nael has indeed caused a great boom throughout the whole of France. the act of the policeman was so inconsequential that he took the life of a young man full of life.


Personally, this death was one more death too many because too many young Nafricians are killed like this. And this fed up is well seen by the all too excessive reactions of the population in support of Nael's death.


All of France was on the alert, everyone suffered from two seconds of refusal to cooperate from the young Nael and two other seconds of inconsequential actions from the policeman.


The lesson to be learned from this is that in all life situations we need to take a step back, act with caution and not get carried away. Rest in paux Nael and a lot of courage to the family of the policeman and to all the police who do an exceptional job to ensure our safety and that of our property.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us, Oriel. It was and is indeed a difficult situation. Were you in France when the incident took place?

I believe you meant to write "peace" instead of "paux." The phrase, "Rest in peace," is commonly used when expressing well wishes for someone who has died.

Because I am curious about your use of the word "inconsequential," I share with you a very helpful dictionary for English learners. If you look up the word, "inconsequential" in the dictionary, do you find that it is still the word you wish to use as you have? Here is the dictionary: Cambridge Learner's Dictionary.

I'm looking forward to your thoughts.
