Paris No-Go Zones where Muslim migrants terrorize women threaten its 2024 Olympics bid
The French authorities have made this new Paris, and they have to live with it. By 2024, France may be an Islamic Republic anyway, with strict Sharia adherence militating against any serious interest in an Olympic bid.
“Paris ‘No Go Zones’ Where Migrants Terrorize Women Threaten its 2024 Olympics Bid,” Heat Street, June 27, 2017:
Paris’s aspiration to stage the Olympic Games in 2024 is under threat partly because of so-called ‘no go zones’ in the city where immigrants from Asia and Africa pester and abuse women.Areas like Place de la Chapelle, formerly a quiet square behind the Gare du Nord train station, have been transformed in a short space of time into havens for immigrant rough sleepers and drug dealers which are said to be increasingly intimidating for many people, especially women.According go the Sunday Times of London, since 2015 a huge influx of immigrants – mostly single men – have begun sleeping in parks, on the streets and under the arches of the Metro bridges in northeast Paris.They have been accused of verbally abusing women in the streets, routinely shouting “Bitch” and “Dirty whore”.

It attracted 20,000 signatures.She explained why she set up the petition: “As a woman you start adopting defensive measures. You don’t go here or there. Avoid certain routes. Take your kids to school another way. I stopped going to my tobacconist and some cafes because suddenly there were only men inside. I have to ask the teenage drug dealers politely to step aside in the foyer just so I can get to my own front door.”But, for her trouble, Laurence has been faced with violence and online abuse from anti-racism campaigners, who recently held a small demonstration in the area which got out of control….
