DW: Calling Prophet Muhammad a pedophile does not fall within freedom of speech: European court

An Austrian woman's conviction for calling the Prophet Muhammad a pedophile did not violate her freedom of speech, the European Court of Human Rights ruled Thursday.

ReplyDeleteBut you are allowed to insult any other deity.
ReplyDeleteExactly, the west is doomed
DeleteSo the takeaway is this:extremism will pay off .kill a bunch of people and our judges cave in. Same will happen in the US. Scream loud enough and presumption of innocence will fall. They came that close. And remember to update your politically correct vocabulary! Mobs are not mobs. Spying is not spying. And you get fired for all kinds of words if you can't keep up
ReplyDeleteYep.. my only hope is that Democrats get their ass whooped. If not, they will keep pushing multi-genderism, hyper-political correctness, weak borders, and an end to free speech
ReplyDeleteAnd you know who will rule us then? Rachael Maddows and Don Lemon, and their outrage machinery. If you say -anything- against them, you will lose your job for whatever reason they and their followers will pick. Don't agree with Don Lemon? You freaking RACIST! Don't agree with Rachael Maddows? You despicable SEXIST!
So most likely an african american/native american transgender Woman will rule us all soon. Because you dare say anything against her/its policy and you will be charged of a hate crime and fired so quickly your head will spin.
They can insult Jesus damn it but not Mohamed, bizarro world.
ReplyDeleteThis has already been done in Canada
ReplyDeleteThe biggest assault on free speech (and with it, free thought) is the outrage machinery on the left,led by the Rachel Maddows, Morning Joes, Don Lemmon etc.. they are not intellectual, they do not understand what they are doing, they are just dumb, dumb little parrots, burning down our democracy for gender-hyperpolitical correctness, 10 bathroom stalls and screaming "we believe her" (= we don't believe in evidence, due process or innocent until proven guilty)..
