No, I'm not trying to pick on the French today, but this story is pretty outrageous. A judge agreed to postpone the trial of 7 men accused of armed robbery because one of them argued he would be too weakened from fasting for Ramadan to be able to stand trial properly. So the case will be heard in January, not September. Read the details here.
Three points off for multiculturalism. Muslims often observe Ramadan by fasting during the day, then feasting after sundown. The judge was had.
