FD's line here seems to be to pretend the worst thing that happened to Yasminn was that she was called an idiot.


Yeah, it's not like she said people who insult the prophet should be beheaded.  Cos that would be OK. 

Free speech innit. 



What does that have to do with Yassmin?

Seems so......he ignores all the threats of violence offered her way.  Why is that, Effendi?  Does freedom of speech extend to that sort of crap?  If you were she, would you hang around in a place where retards are able to get away with that schit.......just to test their resolve and commitment to their cause?

Depends on your definition of "right" baranacle.

I think FD's contention is that reacting to her free speech by calling her to be deported - including by elected politicians, racially abusing her and threatening her with gang-rape, to the extent that she was forced to change her residence - doesn't violate her rights.


Precisely.

The right to free speech does not also enshrine the right not to collect a backwash of disapproval from your audience.

Gandalf I recall you were opposed to 18c. Yet you support the Victorian legislation that Blair Cottrel is being charged with. As far as I can tell, the Victorian legislation is worse. What makes you support it but not 18c?

It was certainly ok by FD that the Antifa woman he liked to call Mouldylocks suffered the same treatment. Just went on and on about how he disagreed with what she had done. Not a word about what was done to her.

When do these threats ever get carried out?

It's rhetoric.

While driving north to suck some Aussie beer and check out the Aussie catmeat women at the club... I was pondering on one of the Universe's great secrets...

(pulls up camp chair to fire..."

Now set down a piece and I'll lay it out for you...

Taking France as an example, they've accepted all these Muss-lims as refugees....  so it seems these Muss-lims all settle into ghettoes with crowding, high crime rates and low incomes - remarkably similar to Australia - in which their chances of a job are small and their chances of being robbed etc are high and the endless internecine pressure of tribe against tribe, village against village etc are a serious factor in raising their anger level .... anyway, all that notwithstanding, their declining economic state is now held up as one reason they become 'radicalised'.

Now - I'm only an old bushie here - but it seems to me that if they are becoming 'radicalised' through lack of economic opportunity - they are economic refugees, and not refugees pure and simple...  they came to France looking for a better deal and got a worse one, often through their own choices...

If things are so bad in France, they can always go back home....

She got herself into a fight and got punched in the face as a result. No sympathy from me. She would have caused that man serious injury if he had not punched her in the face. She is part of a movement that consciously uses violence and intimidation to silence their opposition. She has threatened many people with violence herself.

Yes. So she deserved all of those threats of rape and death, her work details, home details, family details and nude photos published all over the internet with express instruction to do her harm?

Much like Yassmin has received? Should know threats of graphic theats of sexual violence and death are to be expected, rrrright? Boys will be boys, after all.

Pfffft. Uppity women , hey?

What nude photos of her?

Who is trying to silence her? Does she even have anything to say?
