Muslims in France Protest Ban on Street-Praying; Threaten to Take Up Arms Soon and to "Rise Up"

The Europe News website reports today (September 26, 2011) that several hundred Muslim men gathered in the streets of Paris during the past week to protest a recent ban on praying in the streets.

One Muslim man complained that members of his religion were "oppressed."

The man threatened widespread violence, and told a film crew: "Muslims are going to pick up arms soon and are going to rise up."

France passed a law this month, which banned praying in the streets of Paris, as of September 16, 2011.
