They have every right to be there.
I'm actually shocked that so many people think that them leaving the country is such an easy solution to this.
That's no different to suggesting to a white Australian to go back to Britain if they don't like something or a black person to go back to Africa or the Caribbean.

Sure, but there isn't anything that says the French government has to accommodate them. I have no stake in this battle, but the French have a right to be obnoxious ****s. If I were a French citizen I might be a vocal opponent of this; I wouldn't stand for something like this here.
The zeitgeist in Paris is that France is a secular nation who wants to affirm that, and they are of the belief that head scarves is not secular enough. As I said, if a large majority of Europeans suddenly moves to any country governed by Sharia, no one would expect those countries to adjust to a Western style governance.
