What's your position on the Wilders Trial and why?

Dutch MP Geert Wilders is on trial for his protracted and constant bashing of Islam.

While one may or may not agree with his position, this is, to me, a staggering demonstration of how european countries are starting to cave in to the pressure of the islamic minorities. Freedom of speech is a right, and it is, quite frankly, hilarious that a politician, someone that in an ideal world would be the voice of at least part of the voting people, is going to be fined for “abusing” his right to free speech while loads of extremist groups abuse it daily and get away with it. Consistency would be nice, for once.

Personally, i find this preposterous and dangerous to an extent that the people accusing Wilders probably don’t even realize.

It’s a dangerous case of making favourites, making favuorites of a minority that has far too often expressed its contempt for the state that is favouring it.
