A French court has rejected an appeal for residency from the family of a Roma schoolgirl whose humiliating deportation sparked protests across the nation.  15-year-old Leonarda Dibrani was hauled off her school bus and handcuffed in front of her classmates.

“I can say that my future has come to an end today. The future of my family is at stake,” a distraught Leonarda said.  “In Kosovo we don't know what the future holds; in France we did.  We knew what we wanted to do next.  But here I don't know.  We’re not even going to school and there's no security.”

After the family was kicked out and sent to Kosovo, pressure from the Left built up and President Francois Hollande offered to allow the girl to come back to France, sans her family.  She quickly refused Hollande’s offre debile to be separated from her loved ones by hundreds of kilometers and several national borders.  Critics say the Socialist Hollande administration is now different than the previous conservative Sarkozy government when it comes to harassment of Roma.

The court claims the Dibrani family made no attempt to integrate into French society, after living there for five years.
