Freedom is dead in Orwellian France, 'bans' catcalling, fines people for speech

A bill approved Wednesday by French lawmakers outlines steep fines for gender-based harassment on the country's streets and public transportation.
The law will allow for fines of 90-750 euros, roughly $104 to $868, for sexual or sexist comments. That definition also includes behavior that is degrading, humiliating, intimidating hostile or offensive.

The law also includes even higher fines for taking "upskirt" photos — pictures or video taken under a person's clothing without their consent. Those fines could reach 15,000 euros or roughly $17,380.

There's a creeping sickness spreading in Western 'democracies.' This is just another symptom. It's coming here. It's already here but still in its infancy. It's represented here by the democrat party and corrupted Republicans. Left wing fascism in action. This disease is being incubated on our college campuses and it's being promoted by the media. Our own American companies (Google, Facebook, Twitter, etc.) are complicit in this agenda as they work to silence speech and viewpoints they don't agree with.

The UK and France have joined Canada in its experiment with totalitarianism and are not free countries anymore. Our traditional allies have become stupid and weak. Looks like it will be up to the US to eviscerate this movement. Donald Trump is our Winston Churchill.

Not that I'm judging. But he has an upskirt fetish and doesn't want to get fined for getting caught.

Shows the hypocrisy of French rulers on women's rights. Lets fine people 15,000 euros for skirt photos, but support rape, oppression and murder of women in our own country by Islamists and cover it up, fine and jail people for reporting on it. Not only that, lets take it a step further and support the Hamas loving Palestinians who marry 6 year old girls, and the religion, Islam that condones these practices. They are like teachers on strike.

So upskirt photos should be legal?

That catcalling bullshit is ridiculous but even I know when something is creepy.

Fining people for talking. Fining their speech. Fining their 'behavior.' That's creepier than upskirt photos. Upskirt photos are harmless compared to these Orwellian governments in Europe. Strict gun control. CCTV everywhere. Now they are fining speech. These governments will need to be overthrown by the people, like the US did when it elected Trump to clean shit up.

When I was about twenty years old, a woman summed up life for me this... "Men desire the woman in the magazine. Women desire to be the woman in the magazine."

At least she's trying to be honest with herself. By the time she's forty she'll be a conservative.
