Bardot in Bondage

French sex kitten Brigitte Bardot is being persecuted by her country's anti-free speech laws. She went on trial earlier this week for "inciting racial hatred" with her published comments about Muslim immigration and the role of Islam in the 9/11 attacks. She's been convicted of these charges four previous times, so prosecutors are seeking the harshest penalties this time around in the hopes that she'll finally cut it out. It all started when she criticized Muslim animal slaughter rituals in her capacity as an animal rights advocate, but she's since made it clear that France needs to crack down on the rise of fundamentalist Muslim immigration. No matter what anyone thinks of Islam, it's not a race, so I don't see how the racial hatred charge applies. Sure, there's a large Arab foundation for the religion, but tell a Pakistani that Allah only smiles on those from the Fertile Crescent, and you'll likely to receive a nuclear missile to the nose. Also, this is what happens when your country doesn't have a first amendment. Feel free to pirate America's Bill of Rights, Europe. It's in the public domain. More details here.
