Infidel Dog Posted July 7, 2021 Report Posted July 7, 2021 Quote A French court on Wednesday handed down suspended prison sentences of between four to six months to 11 people who were found guilty of online harassment of a teen for her anti-Islam videos published on social media. The prosecutions came after the teen, known as Mila, was forced to change schools and accept police protection after threats to her life. Since her first videos in 2020, the previously unknown schoolgirl has become a divisive public figure, seen by supporters as a symbol of free speech and the right to blasphemy, and by critics as deliberately provocative and Islamophobic. https://www.france24.com/en/france/20210707-french-court-convicts-11-for-harassing-teen-over-anti-islam-videos

Moonlight Graham Posted July 11, 2021 Report Posted July 11, 2021 France seems to be standing up lately for free speech rights. I support them. You can't always let the loudest voices run the show.
