Why is France burning so badly?

Those who were granted asylum on French soil in the name of human rights became enemies.

Introduction 

You must be wondering why France, known for its magnificent culture, excellent artistry, amazing artworks and wonderful literature, is so enraged over the death of a youth? Why are there so many incidents of arson in French cities? Why is government property being torched? The police are not able to quell these attacks. Hundreds of police officers have been injured. Even the outskirts of the important metropolis like Paris have come under attack.

For centuries, Paris has been known as the ‘Art Capital of the World’. Except for the time of revolution, this city is recognised as a cultured city. It is known for its grace and elegance. I’ve travelled to France several times. I have visited several cities including Paris. I am aware of the life there and therefore, I feel that people of French descent cannot perpetrate such riots. And this is the truth too. Most of the unrest started in those suburban areas of France that have dense populations and where people from other countries have settled. Many people have been living there for two generations. But the fact is that they have not assimilated French culture and want to dominate the society there. These include even those people whom France has granted asylum in the name of human rights. Instead of being grateful to France, such immigrants are hostile to its culture. France is paying for its own generosity.
