He said something during the TDF coverage like he was asked not to come back to France. However, he
didn't say by whom.

Le Ministere de la Culture et de la Communication have heard his obnoxious pronunciation of "Toorday
Frantz" and have deemed him an undesirable.

On SportsZone last night he said that he had to return to France to answer charges that he was making fun of the gendarmes in the airport. He joked about their funny boots and hats. No sense of humor these guys. Somehow I expect the true story is a little more interesting.

No, I think he was referring to the time when he was a rider in the TDF. But, I could be mistaken.
Anyone?

I don't believe it. You can get away with murder with the Gendarmes. Now if it was the National
Police, that would be a different story. You don't want to even make eye contact with them.

Ok, but the majority of the viewers watch that show for cycling, not for rowing and rock climbing.
If they wanted to watch that, they can watch ESPN.

Because they carry really big guns, look like they mean business, and have a reputation for being
people you don't mess with. Just like the guys here in the US that you see around the capitol, with
sniper rifles.

The Gendarmerie is part of the the Ministry of Defense, while the Police Nationale is part of the
Interior Ministry. Functionally, smaller towns and rural areas and highways are patrolled by the
Gendarmerie while Paris and the other big cities are patrolled by the Police. Mike is right about
the Police Nationale.

Which is not to say that police in other places can't just as unpleasant, particularly if judged by
their online personas.

I think you'd lose that bet.... otherwise cycling would hold a larger place in programing
in general.
