Free speech means defending the racist: Dieudonné must be innocent

Oh, the irony: the racist French entertainer Dieudonné is the subject of a criminal investigation into something he wrote on Facebook. The anti-Semitic Dieudonné – whose taps into the anti-Semitism now rife in France – was arrested and charged with “defending terrorism.”

What did he write? Well:

“Tonight, as far as I’m concerned, I feel like Charlie Coulibaly.”

Coulibaly is the racist who stormed the kosher store and murdered some Jews.

There is world of difference from being a killer to supporting a killer with words.

So much for #JesuisCharlie. Add France to the list of hypoctites.

It’s not the government’s job to say what is offensive.

You want free speech? You can’t handle free speech.
