French police officers hold spontaneous protests in Paris over a lack of resources and the dangers of "no-go zones" where they are frequently attacked. The discussion extends to the existence of similar "enclaves" in the United States, such as in Texas and New York, where Islamic extremist groups reportedly conduct training.

Oren Segal of the Anti-Defamation League's Center on Extremism claims that 95% of murders against Americans and law enforcement in the last 10 years were committed by right-wing extremists.
