Macron Calls for ‘Ruthless’ Deportation of All Migrants with Ties to Islamic Extremism from France
French President Emmanuel Macron called for all radical Islamist migrants residing in France to be removed from the country in the wake of the suspected Islam-inspired assassination of a middle school teacher on Friday.
President Macron has tasked Minister of the Interior Gérald Darmanin to carry out a “ruthless” examination of the files of those who “carry hatred and terrorist ideologies” over the next 48 hours in order to remove foreign-born Islamists from France, Le Figaro reports.

While it is totally understandable why Macron is responding this way (there have become big problems in France now), some people are concerned about civil liberties issues and the liberal ideals that France holds in such high regard being threatened.
Here's my perspective. It sounds like what French President Macron will be doing would threaten the right of freedom of belief and free speech.
Except for the fact that the people who are going to lose these rights are virtually all immigrants who probably should have never been allowed into the country in the first place, and around half of them are illegally in the country (not that France has been consistently enforcing its own laws).
In my opinion, it's another example of how problems brought into the country can threaten freedom.
