You know, I do not agree with celebrating the death of a hero cop.

But the thing here is: leftists make up like 1% of arrests for speech crimes in Europe. So when they do arrest a leftist for a speech crime, it serves to make people on the right believe that the laws are being applied to both sides, and thus make them more inclined to support the laws.

A French politician could face up to seven years in prison and a hefty fine after reportedly being arrested over tweets celebrating the death of a policeman during the terrorist siege in a French supermarket.

Stephane Poussier, who stood unsuccessfully for the left-wing La France Insoumise (France Unbowed) party in last year’s general election, was arrested Sunday at his home in Dives-sur-Mer in northwest France, according to French media. In a series of tweets, the politician is said to have celebrated the death of Lieutenant-Colonel Arnaud Beltrame, the gendarme killed after offering himself in exchange for a hostage during Friday’s supermarket siege in Trebes, southwest France.

Cette nuit j'ai rêvé de Rémi Fraisse … Il me disait être ravi d'accueillir un colonel de gendarmerie !

“Whenever a policeman is shot… I think of my friend Remi Fraisse,” he wrote, according to La Parisien. Poussier was referring to 21-year-old environmentalist Remi Fraisse who was killed in 2014 during clashes with police at the site of a dam in Sivens, near Toulouse. “And this time it was a colonel, great! It also means one less vote for [President Emmanuel] Macron,” he added.

As a right-winger, I feel very strongly that if free speech is allowed, my ideas will win out.

So I don’t support anyone being arrested for any form of speech.
