巴黎，10月23日——巴黎人正在购买催泪弹筒和胡椒喷雾，以便在抗议活动中保护自己和财产，这些抗议活动预计将持续到本周末，法国首都一家武器店的老板向路透社表示。
PARIS, Oct 23 - Parisians are buying tear-gas cannisters and pepper sprays to defend themselves and their property during protests, which are expected to continue over the weekend, the owner of a weapons shop in the French capital told Reuters.
法国上周末遭遇了多年来最严重的社会动荡，全国范围内抗议高物价和公共服务下降的活动演变为骚乱。一座市政厅被纵火，商店被洗劫，建筑物被涂鸦覆盖，全国各地城市中暴力团体与警察发生冲突。
France was hit by its worst social unrest in years last weekend as nationwide protests over high prices and declining public services erupted into riots. A town hall was torched, shops pillaged and buildings covered in graffiti as violent groups clashed with police in cities across the country.
警方仅批准了巴黎周六的一次工会示威，拒绝了法国主要学生工会UNEF和反体制的“黄背心”运动提出的集会请求。
Police have authorised only a union demonstration in Paris on Saturday, rejecting requests for rallies lodged by France's main student union, UNEF, and the anti-establishment Yellow Vest movement.
在巴黎市中心的“布尔瑟兵器店”，店主伊夫·戈莱蒂向路透社表示，自周末以来，非致命武器的销量大幅增加。他说，距离该店仅30米（33码）的商店被洗劫，百叶窗被扯掉。
At the Armurerie de la Bourse weapons shop in central Paris, owner Yves Gollety told Reuters he has seen a big increase in the sale of non-lethal weapons since the weekend. Shops just 30 metres (33 yards) away had been looted, with their shutters torn off, he said.
“这是我们第一次看到如此大幅的增长，而且涉及所有人群，”戈莱蒂说，并补充说他的顾客包括店主、餐馆老板和个人。“人们在身体上受到了创伤，并且感到害怕，”他说。
"It's the first time that we've seen such an increase, and with all segments of the population," Gollety said, adding that his customers include shopkeepers, restaurant owners and individuals. "People have been physically traumatised and are afraid," he said.
最畅销的产品是胡椒喷雾和催泪弹筒，戈莱蒂表示这些产品只能用于自卫。戈莱蒂同时也是全国枪匠协会主席，他向法国《巴黎人报》表示，订单量增加了十倍。
The top-selling products are pepper sprays and tear-gas cannisters, which Gollety said could only be used in self-defence. Gollety, who is also president of the national association of gunsmiths, told French newspaper Le Parisien that orders had increased tenfold.
戈莱蒂说，公众只能购买容量不足100毫升的小型筒装产品。路透社没有发现巴黎人因抗议活动而购买其他类型武器的证据。
Members of the public are only allowed to buy small cannisters under 100 millilitres in size, Gollety said. Reuters found no evidence that people in Paris were buying other types of weapons in response to the protests.
法国工商会主席阿兰·迪克雷森佐敦促店主不要使用武器保护自己的生意。他在周五接受欧洲1电台采访时说，他本人曾看到店主们拿起棒球棍、撬棍和霰弹枪武装自己。路透社无法独立核实这一说法。
Alain Di Crescenzo, the president of France's chamber of commerce, urged shopkeepers to refrain from using weapons to defend their businesses. Speaking on the radio station Europe 1 on Friday, he said that he had personally seen shopkeepers arming themselves with baseball bats, crowbars and shotguns. Reuters was not able to independently verify this.
“这非常令人担忧，”他说。“这不是他们的工作……这将是雪上加霜。”“必须让警察去做他们的工作，我建议保持最大谨慎，”他补充道。“你必须做好准备”一名在巴黎15区经营摩托车和踏板车店的店主告诉路透社，他购买了三个大号催泪瓦斯罐，外加一个小号，以保护他的店铺。
“It’s extremely worrying,” he said. “It’s not their job to do that... It would add suffering onto suffering." "The police must be left to do their jobs and I recommend the utmost caution," he added. "YOU HAVE TO BE PREPARED" A shopkeeper who sells motorbikes and scooters in Paris' 15th arrondissement told Reuters he bought three large tear-gas cannisters, plus another small one, to protect his shop.
“你可能会措手不及，有人毫无预警地到来。所以你必须做好准备，”这名要求不具名的店主说。
"You can be taken by surprise, with people arriving without any prior warning. So you have to be prepared," said the shopkeeper, who asked not to be identified.
法国政府承诺加强安全，并将在周六的抗议活动中部署7万名警察，并有专业单位提供支援，但越来越多的人考虑如何自我防卫，这体现了巴黎人在周末临近时的恐惧。
France's government has pledged tougher security, and will deploy 70,000 police backed by specialist units for protests on Saturday, but the increase in people considering how to defend themselves illustrates Parisians' fears as the weekend approaches.
一名造访戈莱蒂店铺的58岁金融工作者，他不愿透露姓名，表示他研究过自卫方案，但最终这次没有购买任何东西。
One man visiting Gollety's shop, a 58-year-old finance worker who did not want to be identified, said he had researched self-defence options, although he had ultimately not bought anything on this occasion.
“考虑到上周发生的事情以及下周末再次发生的风险，我宁愿谨慎行事，保护好自己，”他说，并补充说他长期以来一直感到不安全。“我一直在考虑这件事，我想我会采取一些措施，”他说。
"Given what happened last week and the risk it happens again next weekend, I would prefer to be sensible and protect myself," he said, adding he had had a longstanding feeling of being unsafe. "I've been thinking about this for a long time and I think I'm going to take some steps," he said.
在巴黎的其他地方，拥有一家金融咨询公司的伊万·韦斯告诉路透社，他正在采取措施，以避免他店铺的橱窗被打碎。
Elsewhere in Paris, Yvan Weiss, who owns a finance consulting firm, told Reuters he was taking steps to avoid his shop's windows being broken.
当被问及是否考虑购买辣椒喷雾或其他防御装备时，他说他曾考虑过，但最终决定为店面安装机械金属百叶窗，而不是购买这些装备。
Asked if he considered getting pepper spray or other defensive gear, he said he had thought about it but in the end decided to get mechanical metal shutters for his shopfront instead.
