Corsica,  May 2016

Bullet-ridden road signs form a common part of navigation around Corsica.  Those fighting for the independence of Corsica are keen to damage signs written in French as opposed to Corsican: many of the bilingual signs have the French name erased.

But the bullet riddling is wider spread than the spray paint removal of names, and may be as much a form of target practice as political statement.
