France immigration policy has failed because they abandoned the philosophy of cultural assimilation.

When you have several cultures occupying a single country, you might as well have several different countries.

Indeed Macron - you can start by abolishing those burkini bans.

How does that saying go "people in glass houses shouldn't throw stones". Governments taking away citizens rights, supressing protesters, crushing farmers and private businesses should be the last to preach about Xenophobia and oppression, what hypocritical garbage.

Lol, he's got a nerve - as if decades of uber-liberal lax immigration policies and favoring aliens over natives hasn't got anything to do with French people getting more and more based.

It's a neck-and-neck race to see which Western European country first slips into outright Yugoslavia-style ethnic violence, the frontrunners being France, Belgium, Holland, Italy, Sweden, Germany, or the UK.

Correct..

It is one thing to eradicate xenophobia and quite another to protect the country from indiscriminate immigration, which usually brings a lot of problems in the long run.

The French elite has brought all these problems into France and now they beg everyone to just get along. It isn't going to happen, and in fact it's getting worse by the day. Where is the anti-Semitism coming from? Who has been burning two churches down every month for years? We all know, but are not allowed to say. It's like watching a nation busily engaged in heaping up its own funeral pyre.

It's interesting to see what's going on around the World. The Former Colonial countries are now being manipulated by their own modern day laws over discrimination and racism, by those whom in the past they discriminated against.

Sadly, one has to look at Free places such as haiti to see where that ends up. Where's the Black lives matter movement there ?

Even the attack upon the British Monarchy by a weirdo woman, is a good example of how things are progressing there - a coordinated attack upon the Whites, regardless. It's all going to end up very messy in the end, increasing Xenophobia, and Racism backlashes - them and us, type of backlash...

TokyoOldMan talks a lot of sense.
