She appears to have more wisdom than the entire French government.

"I've had enough of being led by the nose by this whole population which is destroying us, (and) destroying our country by imposing their ways."

Bardot does have more wisdom than most European gubmints combined.

She is completly right but french justice is owned by a bunch of liberals very soft with criminals above all when they are immigrants and very agressive when caucasian french people make a single remark.
In that case it was not at all a matter of racism as she criticized some barbarian muslim customs against animals(throat cutting of sheeps)

She is right, but in France there is no “freedom of speech.” Or none if it is against Muslims. What if she had made these comments about Jews or Christians? IMO, nothing much would have happened. and Bush and Condi Rice will not be screaming about changing France's oppressive government.

Yeah — but wasn’t she only complaining about how they treat yummy lambs (i.e. they eat them — and rightly so!)? Not how they treat people?

*If* so, IN THIS, she was wrong, Islam was right. She picked the wrong battle.

This story was a bit shocking to me when I saw it on Breibart earlier. I couldn't figure why she was being fined tens of thousands especially since the statement was made in a letter to a public official. Of course the answer is this: it's France.

As someone says up thread, Canada too has these sorts of "Free Speech" laws which remind me of where some want to take "Hate Crime" statues in this country.

What a HORRIBLY repressive thing it must be to not to be free in speaking one's mind for fear of gov't finds. We're fortunately to have a Bill of Rights that protects free speech such as this. For now, anyway.
