COPENHAGEN - The leader of Danish far-right party Stram Kurs, lawyer Rasmus Paludan, was disbarred from the legal profession and sentenced to three months in jail on Thursday after being found guilty of racism.

Stram Kurs (Hard Line) was close to getting into parliament in the last election in Denmark with a policy based on banning Islam and deporting hundreds of thousands of Muslims.

Paludan first came to public attention in 2017 when he started making anti-Muslim Youtube videos. His stunts have included publicly burning the Koran, sometimes wrapped in bacon, in what he said was a tribute to free speech.

Paludan was sentenced to 14 days of conditional imprisonment in 2019 for racist speech. He will now face one month of imprisonment with two additional months of suspended sentence after being found guilty of 14 different accounts of racism, defamation and hazardous driving.

Paludan denied all charges.

Looks like we are heading in the same direction.

One can see, feel, hear, and smell the bias in that report.
Europe is doomed in any case, and will obviously become economically irrelevant following the Muslim takeover.

As for Reuters, they will also join Europe following CW-II.

We need to stop reporting to jail. The system is broken and compliance with it could be life threatening. Better to take a stand.

Little do these despicables know is that they will soon come for those who have coddled and protected them. Jailed for racism! is this what the “privileged” whites have to look forward to here in the US?

Goodbye denmark. How soon do you expect to rip the cross out of your national flag so as to not offend your new masters? You will, so don’t deny it. It’s almost over for you. Yeah, Legoland and Tivoli Gardens are great, and you should go enjoy them during the few remaining years when you have them.

and hazardous driving.

I get the feeling that’s what he’s really in prison for.

“Far right” = “Not a Marxist or Islamist.”

I have actually interviewed him for Infowars.

Jailed for “racism”? No, jailed for wrong-think. He is in prison for a thought crime, exactly what the Left here (and everywhere) salivate for!

IOW, he’s not a Marxist and therefore must be jailed.

Good Lord. The Vikings would be so disappointed to see what eunuchs their descendants have become. Ivar the Boneless and Ragnar Lothbrok are looking on filled with shame.

I’m wondering what exactly constitutes the “racism” he’s going to jail for? Banning Islam? Deporting Muslims?

I notice they don’t manage to report what he said that was considered illegal racist speech.

I read this story sipping my coffee wearing an infidel T-shirt thanking God I live in America.
