6. A perceived failure to assimilate

They feel that they haven't been able to assimilate Muslims, who will become the majority in France at some point this century if present immigration and birth rates continue (the latter is very unlikely. Birth rates will likely fall dramatically as they usually do with immigrants who come to Western nations). Of course, I haven't seen any real evidence to prove that they are not assimilating. Anecodtal evidence from extreme cases doesn't cut it IMO.
