#1 Note that there was a spontaneous (internet and SMs) muslim demonstration organized in Paris a couple of days ago, about 1000-3000 demonstrators depending on the sources, with french msm being very quiet about that except the leftist channel i-télé, and they asked for a "blasphemy law" too.

Pics gallery here.

Also, the Seine-Saint-Denis (heavily islamized Paris area) muslim federation is planning an another demonstration, and they too will be asking for a law prohibiting the "slandering of islam"...

#2 I thought it was only slander if the statement isn't true?

This isn't slander - it's editorial comment on existing statements and actions.

#3 The students called for a law that would prohibit the insult of religious symbols

They wouldn't be able to burn the Danish flag - it has a cross on it. Nick the lot of em.

#4 What was that line from Spiderman. "It's not slander, in print it's libel." Something like that.

#5 So with this new blasphemy law, will it be illegal to slander Jewish institutions too?
