PARIS (Reuters) - French former film star Brigitte Bardot went on trial on Tuesday for insulting Muslims, the fifth time she has faced the charge of “inciting racial hatred” over her controversial remarks about Islam and its followers.

Prosecutors asked that the Paris court hand the 73-year-old former sex symbol a two-month suspended prison sentence and fine her 15,000 euros ($23,760) for saying the Muslim community was “destroying our country and imposing its acts”.

Since retiring from the film industry in the 1970s, Bardot has become a prominent animal rights activist but she has also courted controversy by denouncing Muslim traditions and immigration from predominantly Muslim countries.

She has been fined four times for inciting racial hatred since 1997, at first 1,500 euros and most recently 5,000.

“I am fed up with being under the thumb of this population which is destroying us, destroying our country and imposing its acts,” the star of ‘And God created woman’ and ‘Contempt’ said.

She’s absolutely correct. The woman should be considered a hero, but instead she’s being prosecuted for saying what she thinks instead of kissing muslim ass like the simpering appeasers in her government. Every time I think the French are finally growing some hair, they prove me wrong. “Inciting racial hatred”. Since when did a fascist creed become a race? Muslims are white, black and all colors in between.

The muslims in France, meanwhile, can riot and loot and burn cars literally by the 1000’s, and be called “angry youths”. Their preachers can exhort them to kill every non-muslim they can find, and demand that the government of France give muslims special treatment that ordinary French citizens don’t get, and the French murmur apologies and meekly comply. But be prosecuted for tromping all over the laws and rights of French ciitizens? No. The government of France is such a cadre of cowards that instead they go after a 73-year-old faded movie star who has more courage than all those politicians put together, to show their muslim bullies that they’re being dutifully compliant.
