[LifeSiteNews.com] January 26, 2006--A court in Lille handed down its sentence on a French Parliamentarian Tuesday, fining him 3000 Euros and forcing him to pay an additional 6000 Euros to be split between three homosexual activist groups who brought the charges against the MP. Christian Vanneste, a member of the UMP representing the Lille region was found guilty in December on charges of violating a French law barring "hate speech" against homosexuals.
This represents a serious infringement upon the freedom of speech! In a democracy parliamentarians and legislators should be free to speak their minds on the floor of the parliament or legislature.
