There are signs that some are pushing back, but I fear that in a few years, muslim extremism may run rampant in Europe because the ultra-liberal elements there refuse to say no to all this.
Good point, its a HUGE problem in France right now. I wouldnt be suprised if they do push back eventually. The people in those countries are only going to stand for so much...
I think the French people electing a more conservative president is a strong indication of their growing frustration.
