Disgrace in Denmark

We read:
"On August 4, 2010, the Public Prosecutor for Copenhagen charged International Free Press Society (IFPS) president Lars Hedegaard with racism. The IFPS describes itself as an organization "exclusively devoted to defending the right of free expression."

The basis for Hedegaard's prosecution was an interview from December 2009 in which he made controversial statements about Islam. These assertions included critiques of what Hedegaard saw as Islam's permissiveness regarding child abuse and bearing false witness, as well as Islam's general intolerance concerning apostacism and critical speech.

Hedegaard's statements earned him a hate speech charge under Danish law. While Denmark's constitution ostensibly protects freedom of expression and forbids censorship (see Section 77), the Criminal code provides that "expressing and spreading racial hatred" is a criminal offense punishable with up to two years imprisonment. (Article 266b)

Indeed, notwithstanding Section 77, article 266b has already been deployed against defendants who, like Hedegaard, dare to criticize Islam.

The present Danish government seems set to change the law soon to prevent such abuses.

The Danish Supreme Court must be pissweak if they have approved a law that so contravenes the Danish constitution.

It must be said again, but how is a religion a race?

As usual, those who preach "unlimited tolerance" are paving the way for "total intolerance."

Muslim, like Mexican, is not a race, and therefor, these can not be "racial" issues. But the apologists for both know that playing the race card gets a lot more attention and sympathy. But there is a bright side to this. Since the word race, and the charge of racism, are now being so widely used, (and abused) they no longer have any real meaning, especially since the overwhelming majority of allegations of racism are totally without merit.

exactly - race = wolf, as in "cying it".

"exactly - race = wolf"

I don't get it. wolf equals exactly minus race

The Supreme Court may never had to test that law to the constitution (yet?).
Not in all countries (maybe even not in most) must laws be tested against the constitution before coming into effect.
Usually a majority in parliament and a signature of the head of state is all it takes (and sometimes not even both of those).

From the National Review, 8/12/10;

"A note on the America-based Muslim Brotherhood: It is not a college fraternity.

Its founder, Hasan al-Banna, famously said: “It is the nature of Islam to dominate, not to be dominated, to impose its law on all nations and to extend its power to the entire planet.

In 1991, the Muslim Brotherhood’s American leadership prepared an internal memorandum describing its mission as, "a kind of grand jihad in eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within and "sabotaging" its miserable house by their hands and the hands of the believers so that it is eliminated and God's religion is made victorious over all other religions."

A grandiose Nanny State scheme to coerce an equality of results, it robs achiever Peter, to pay parasite Paul who punched a chad for neo-Marxist tyranny.
