A quick look at the Paris migrant crisis:

This is what the DemocRATs want here in America - watch the video and wake up -- https://www.facebook.com/reel/648180058043871

What is behind this crisis?  What are the migrants gaining?  This video would probably deter me as a traveler.

Candy, you really shouldn't fall for some video made by some rando with an axe to grind. Paris is a huge city. So this person went around filming some homeless camps in a very clumsy and transparent attempt to imply that they're "everywhere." Same with the graffiti. You could concoct such a video in any city of any size. You could also film every dumpster in Paris and purport that Paris is nothing but dumpsters.

The propaganda continues with the rando author calling it all a "crisis." What construes a "crisis"? It's not "something I've chosen to bitch about to draw attention to myself " ANYTHING can be painted as a crisis. A shortage of Rocky Road ice cream can be a "crisis." A heat wave that makes begonias wilt can be a "crisis."

The author of the video cites some non-existent "stats" to bolster her claim. The EU has open borders. There's no way to determine the number of migrants in France at any given time.

All this video is, is a race rant. There are at any given time, quite a few foreigners in Paris. That includes quite a few Muslims. Recent years have shown many, many hate crimes in Paris targeting them. The French in general aren't thrilled with outsiders/foreigners.

That's all that's going on with this clumsy propaganda video.

I have recenyly been to paris & the Eiffel Tower is surrounded by immigrants selling crap.  To show how stupid they are, they all sell the same thing.

There are numerous spots in Paris that are a NO GO zone for tourists & several are NO GO for native Parisians and even the police don't go there.  Even  NYC doesn't have no go zones.

Grafitti is real and the highways are covered with it.

Trains are better than NY, but that is a low bar.

When you get to the airport to leave you are immediatly agressively approached by immigrants who try to grab your bags to carry into the airport. 

There's no way to determine the number of migrants in France at any given time.

somehow kevin doesn't think this is a problem

No, fascist stupid asshole Tom, I didn't say that it was or wasn't a problem. Did I? Or are you just Tom-lying again?

What I said was is that some rando Facebook asshole complaining about something and showing Tom-stats that are obviously bullshit means nothing.

Oh, I get it! You're defending that person because like you always do, they pulled "stats" out of their ass to "prove" some stupid point!

And since France joined the EU voluntarily, they have accepted the EU's border policies. If they want to slam their borders shut, they can withdraw. So no, it's NOT a "problem" for them; they've democratically accepted it.

I know that you hate democracy.

At least I got some dialogue going.  I suspect Tom's and Kevin's posts both contain some truths.  Thanks, guys.

Well, as one example of the truth of Tom's postings, there are no such things as "no-go zones" in Paris. There are no areas where anyone is forbidden to go, and no areas where it is too dangerous or there is no police presence. The pseudo-article stupid Tom posted is as I said--an eyes-bugged-out livid rant against Muslims. "Bolstered" with a couple of pictures of fires from somewhere.

You're quite familiar, I'm sure, with all the race hatred and paranoia swirling around in the US over immigrants in general and Muslims in particular. France is even more xenophobic than MAGA, and in a strategy taken from Page One of the fascist playbook, immigrants are blamed by the right wing (in France, Le Pen and allies) for all of the country's ills. Does that sound familiar? FEELTHY IMMERGENTS being blamed for everything, including Trump's diaper rash?

So since Tom is firmly in bed with and cuddled up to Diaper Rash Man, you might want to consider the veracity of his statements. We already know he hates hates hates FEELTHY IMMERGENTS, to the point where he continually lies about the legal asylum seekers who have arrived in NYC.

You might also wonder why Millerscum feels compelled to bitch about a city thousands of miles away in a different country. Is it his business or his concern?

Race hatred is powerful and sparks delusional behavior. Stupid Tom and Millerscum slurp it up like mother's milk.

How does stupid Tom know that the people selling souvenirs near the Eiffel Tower are immigrants?

Race hatred and bigotry!

There were a bunch of immigrants selling things and panhandling by the Louvre, when we were there.  They definitely were pretty agressive trying to get close and engage us.   

Edso! How in sweet holy motherfuck do you know they were FEELTHY IMMERGENTS? Are you leaping to that conclusion because you found their behavior off-putting?

Every city in the world has 100 percent troo-bloo native-born souvenir sellers and panhandlers. It's not like those are FEELTHY professions that only FEELTHY IMMERGENTS engage in.

And anyone who is excessively kerfuffled about being importuned by vendors and panhandlers probably shouldn't visit a heavily touristed area of a heavily visited major city, ja? I saw it in Paris. And London. And Rome. And Berlin. And Warsaw. And Athens. And Madrid. And Budapest. And New York City. And Washington DC.

Don't use MAGA logic to justify race hatred. NOTE WELL: you were annoyed by what they were doing and transmuted that to annoyance over what they WERE.

And that's simply wrong.
