Did this person die after being hit by that water cannon?
Javier Negre posted on X that French police use a water cannon against students. No deaths have been reported; it is irony, not an official report.
English · Original discussion in Spanish · Published
There is no record of anyone dying from the water cannon. Javier zaine's post describes a police action against riots and uses the irony of the "free shower", but provides no medical report or fatality.
## What the post says
**Javier zaine** posted on **X** that French police use a water cannon against students he blames for riots. He calls it a "free shower" and says "the nonsense is over". It is irony, not an official report. There is no date, exact location or number of people affected.
He attributes the riots to Muslim and African students. That is the author's opinion, not a verified fact. The question about the death does not come from a coroner's report, but from the diminutive "little water pistol".
## A water cannon is not a household gun
A water cannon fires a pressurised jet to disperse crowds. It is not lethal by design, but it can cause bruises, falls and injuries.
The text records no fatalities. The "little pistol" is not a toy gun. If there are injuries, the sensible thing is to seek medical care.
## The economic cost of the riots
Riots close shops, block streets and force the mobilisation of police and equipment. The water cannon is public spending.
The post does not quantify damage or budget. Nor does it allow the conclusion that Muslim or African students cause the riots. Attributing an event to a group because of its origin or religion is a generalisation, not an economic fact.
