Of course, they did point out that he was living illegally in France. But that kind of ruins their argument against illegal immigration. | | | | | How so?

The child of an illegal immigrant is in danger
The child gets rescued by an other illegal immigrant
Turns out: If there were no illegal immigrants, this would never have happened. Innocent children are put in danger by illegal immigrants dragging them to Europe. | The following 5 users would like to thank curley for this useful post: | |

My concern with mass immigration is not that I think they're bad people; my concern is that a lot of them will not integrate and ultimately assimilate.
The fact that they tend to bring a lot of social and economic problems with them is simply the low-hanging fruit.

I don't get it. Where in the French or EU legal codes does it state that doing a good deed or being a good person entitles an illegal alien to citizenship?

I don't think anybody supports illegal immigration. There's a debate about how to treat illegal immigrant, and what types of immigration should be illegal, but nobody except criminals actually condones law-breaking.
So no, your argument transfer concept doesn't work.

"After doing the shopping, the boy's father had delayed going home to play Pokemon Go, prosecutors said."
Back to the Malian Spiderman - Macron says that in addition to French citizenship, he will be given a job as a firemen, which corresponds to his skills...
Wait a minute - his skills? He's certainly brave, but is scaling building exteriors really what firemen do? Eligibility for a paid job as a fireman in France requires minimum of 3 years volunteer firefighting service: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fire_services_in_France
I guess it's great feel-good PR for Macron...
