Criticizing homosexuals is blasphemy in France too:
"President Nicolas Sarkozy’s party said Wednesday it is kicking out a legislator who said gay people hold too much sway in France and downplayed the persecution of gays during World War II.
The comments by lawmaker Christian Vanneste unleashed an outpouring of criticism from left and right, and embarrassed Sarkozy’s conservative party just as the unpopular president was expected to announce that he will seek a second term in upcoming elections.
Vanneste looks set to lose his spot in the UMP party and his parliament seat over the remarks — harsh ramifications for what many see as offensive and incendiary commentary.
In a video broadcast on a French website, Vanneste said gays are “at the heart of power” in France, manipulating the media and making humankind “lose its dignity.”

The irony is, an ignorant, totally uninformed person might say his ouster is evidence that his statement is true.
The Euroweenie Union needs to be broken up
Or Stan, an even more ignorant and uninformed person might think his statement is untrue.
What the story proves is that, truth is quickly approaching the point of being illegal, simply to protect a class of untouchables.
How naive would you need to be to NOT see that he's been proven right?
If Homosexuals didn't hold undue sway in Government and the media, he'd still be in his job.
Just be happy were no longer a british subject or we,ed also fall under this euroweenie doctrine
This article is proof there IS free speech in France - after all, he's not in jail. There is just no speech without consequence.
Bigotry is protected but not respected - whether it's jews, gays, reds, freemasons, or some other amorphous group that paranoid or delusional people think run an entire country!
