PARIS, France -- Mixing rap music with memories of France's revolutionary past, youths from poor neighborhoods of largely Muslim and African descent marched through Paris on Wednesday to present a collection of 20,000 complaints to lawmakers.
The march by several hundred people came ahead of Friday's first anniversary of the riots involving disaffected youths from immigrant Parisian suburbs. Many in France fear new violence, with tensions rising in recent weeks.
"The context is still the same, nothing has changed. So the situation is propitious for other events like last year," said Samir Mihi, co-founder of the AC-Le Feu group that collected the grievances from minorities all over France.

Muslims own and are continuing to purchase all the property they can surrounding Paris. It's only a matter of when, not if, an actual coup occurs. Sales of white flags and prayer rugs are on a sharp increase throughout France.

"Sales of white flags and prayer rugs are on a sharp increase throughout France".
I'm assuming the white flags are not for surrendering (unless they sell them to the French when the time comes).

They probably carried signs saying "Mort au Juifs".
In which case, the government probably gave the protest its approval.

Hey, I would rather the Muslims march peacefully and deliver their grievances to their elected representatives, which is a democratic right, than burn down cars and attack policemen. Perhaps these people can be reasoned with.
To: SmithL
Looks like the French are in deep do-do.
Daily riots are common. A fact which our MSM ignores.

Yes for the French. Surrender first, then convert.

Hope springs eternal but I think that it is more likely that this was a reconnaissance in force.

Complaints about what? They ran out of cars to torch?
To: SmithL
Another [complaint] entry, by a 17-year-old boy from Besancon in eastern France, urged companies to use their profits to create more jobs. Boy's one of France's top 3 economists. Quick, quote him and get him to meet the PM. French ministers are always eager to listen to the "yutes".
