Eric Zemmour - More Precise Information

From Yves Daoudal comes this more precise account of the fines and damages in the Eric Zemmour trial:

Eric Zemmour was convicted of provoking racial discrimination for having said that "most drug dealers are black or Arab, that's the way it is, it's a fact."

A deferred fine of 2000 euros, 1000 euros in damages to each of the three lobbies that sued him (this would be MRAP, SOS-Racism and LICRA), and 2000 euros in court costs.

Note: So far that makes FIVE THOUSAND euros, not counting the deferred fine.

And, the same day, he was convicted of provoking racial discrimination for having said that employers "have the right" to refuse to hire Arabs and blacks.

A deferred fine of 1000 euros, one euro to the two lobbies that sued him (UEJF, and J'accuse), and 750 euros in court costs.

Note: This totals SEVEN HUNDRED FIFTY-TWO euros not counting the deferred fine. In all, then, 5,752 euros to be paid now.

Note the deferred fines, which in this case is a threat from the thought police, and which underscores the censorship imposed on journalists.

Here is one reader's comment:

It is a broad conception of criminal law, which is nonetheless, in civilized countries, strict in its interpretation, even restrictive. The sentence is an anomaly, it should not be inflicted except in cases of strict necessity.

Let's hope that the Appeals court will be more in conformity with natural law. For it is obvious that Zemmour is innocent of the crimes imputed to him by French "justice". He defended the right to freedom of information and freedom of hiring (he did not say that employers must not hire certain categories. He noted the fact that employers were free to recruit whom they want and that all were equal whatever their race, appearance or nationality).

I'm familiar with the judicial milieu and I do not have a high opinion of it. This, obviously, is not the type of verdict that will restore my confidence in the judges of my country. A rape of freedom of information, a rape of freedom of thought and expression, a rape of the fundamental equality of human beings, a rape of criminal law, of the presumption of innocence - the list of crimes committed by the judges is not exhaustive.
