So yeah a french soldier just stopped some nutcase that had a machete and shot him didn't kill him though and  
the police and the french military caught a guy acting suspicious.

All in all this should be a wake up call our foreign policy shouldn't be destabilize a region  for a resource that is 
going to lead to human level extinctions.

But the French don't have a muslim ban so why are the jihadists always attacking the sweet French?

And so begins the right wing screeching of" see trump is right" of course two big problems with this

1. the guy as far as we know is Egyptian and thus would not be on ban

2.By the same logic white Christians should be banned because of the terrorist  attack in Quebec

The French have been attacking Islamic attire like the burqini. That and they have a very vocal extreme right that aren't huge fans of Muslims.

Lol sweet French. They treat their Muslim populous like shit . They have been militarily active throughout the Muslim world and there planning more . They have pushed bans on everything for attire to food . They have allowed extremist anti Muslim groups raise left and right. And there's a real possibility they elect one said extremist .So yeah no reason they might attack France.

France is an Islamic nation.

Not surprised.

France has the highest percentage of Muslims in its population of any country in Europe. It shouldn't be a surprise that they are the one's most frequently attacked out of any country in the EU. I support France's burqa ban, and most of its attempts at integration. They have to do something before parallel societies start cementing themselves in French society.

Islamic terrorists don't need a specific political or economic grievance to attack infidels, just the perception that the Ummah is being threatened by the kafir. As we've seen these 'threats' don't even have to be military, if you even 'assault' their religious sensibilities by drawing Muhammad that is reason enough to slaughter you and other innocent people.

A French court overruled the ban on the burqini.  The French love muslims.  They've lived with them for a very long time.  They should be BFFs.

I support the ban on burqas too, simply because it's a security risk. In England we're too pussy to ban it even though it breaks our laws about concealing your face in certain places.

I actually saw someone in a burqa for the first time ever, just a few weeks ago. It was quite shocking to me. She was with a bloke who had her on a short leash, based on my extremely brief experience.

Edit: Doesn't the fact that Wetsern women are walking around with plenty of flesh showing without being pounced on by men every five seconds give Muslims pause about the necessity of those stupid things?

the Burqas yes as it breaches concealment laws (thou in Canada it's a bit complicated) the hijab I'm fine with as it breaks no laws so view it as a compromise. Intragration should be desired not forced if our ways are superior no such thing should be needed . I have confidence my nations culture is stronger.

I live among a lot of Muslims I never see a Burqas ever only Hijabs as for woman they seem pretty independent here

As for your third point I once asked a Muslim colleague of mine that very question he told me it's not just about being touched it's about being seen .Personally I kind of get it . But still think the over all idea is silly
