Seven Arrested Over ‘Cyberbullying’ Against Creator of Controversial Paris Olympics Opening Ceremony (France)
Breitbart ^ | 10-25-24 | Oliver JJ Lane

France’s new crackdown on cyberbullying sees seven charged in “first wave” of arrests against those who trolled the creator of the Paris 2024 Olympics LGBT-themed opening ceremony.

Seven people have been arrested across France this week, accused of making death threats, insults, and of cyberbullying of figures involved with the 2024 Paris Olympics including most prominently the artistic director of the much-criticised opening ceremony, Thomas Jolly. The opening ceremony grabbed headlines globally for its overt political and social themes, with many decrying it as ‘woke’ and extravagantly anti-Christian.

Those arrested are six men aged between 22 and 79 years old, and a 57-year-old woman. France’s Le Figaro cites a source inside the investigation said “some” of those arrested had “worrying profiles”, and said one is allegedly seen by the government as being a “professional hate monger”.

It wasn’t ‘controversial’; it was demonic, and ‘proudly’ so. The first Olympics I watched were the ‘68 games. How far we’ve fallen...

Sexual deviants are always receiving “death threats”. It’s what they do for a living. They make life more interesting for them. I think they send them to each other.

Watch what the French now do. The arrest of these men will stir up an unbelievable hornets nest of hatred against these transgender whackos.

These transgender Jacobites will be led to the guillotine

IMO, the IOC is THE penultimate (after government) in pandering for blatant, unwarranted perks and bribery of one sort or the other.

Okay, I can see a death threat being worthy of a criminal investigation. But an insult?

I’d better delete from my files the ebook shown below. Because I sure don’t want France to issue an international arrest warrant against me.

If they slow down and meditate for a second, God might tweak their conscience.

He might show them they are headed to Hell.

They would think THAT is the ultimate death threat.

But from God, it is not a threat, it is an offer of Life.

Right after that abomination my church men’s group decided we were not going to patronize the Olympics......I didn’t watch one minute, and I’m glad I didn’t.

If they do issue one, just insult the French authorities and they will surrender

It’s things like that, that move me to lean on scripture.

Jesus said in John 15:18 to remember that if they hate us they hated him first.

That gives me comfort......it’s their burden......not mine.
