Tens of thousands of protesters across France call on Macron not to sign immigration law

Tens of thousands of people marched in the streets of cities across France on Sunday to call on President Emmanuel Macron not to sign into law tough new legislation on immigration that they say bears the footprint of the far right and betrays French values.

Sadly, France reached a point of no-return already. A country with such rich cultural contribution to the West is now a shell of its former glory days. That's rather tragic.

France has to protect France as long as there’s anything left of it

Open borders and all refugees welcome in Francstan. Diversity is their strength.

The french and none french SHOULD be treated differently. If the none french get all the advantages of being french, is France even a country anymore? Citizen ship becomes worthless under such a system.

It is tragic. Those immigrants should stay live on the houses of their supporters
