A Dutch politician has begun his appeal against his 2016 conviction for inciting discrimination against Muslims, refusing to apologize for seeking to legally limit Islamic influence.
A Dutch court convicted Geert Wilders, of the Freedom Party (PVV), in 2016 for inciting discrimination against Muslims during a campaign rally in which he asked the audience whether they wanted more or fewer Moroccans in the Netherlands, according to Straits Times. They responded by chanting “Fewer! Fewer!” to which Wilders replied “We’re going to take care of that,” according to Reuters. Geert now accuses prosecutors of trying to limit his freedom of speech.
Morgen hoger beroep.

Waar het islamisten nog niet lukt bij mij, probeert het OM alvast de vrijheid van meningsuiting om zeep te helpen.
Tomorrow my appeal in court.

“What the Islamists haven’t been able to do to me, the prosecutors are trying to do anyway: destroy freedom of expression,” Wilders said in a tweet before his appeals hearing began.
Geert-Jan Knoops, Wilders’ lawyer, argued at the beginning of the proceedings that prosecutors had applied a double standard to Wilders and that they had “selectively applied” to him the standard by which they determine whether speech is discriminatory. Knoops claimed that while the court prosecuted Wilders for his statements concerning Muslims, they chose not to prosecute his political rival, Alexander Pechtold, for comments he made against Russians, even though people complained about such comments.
Wilders said that he has never called for violence against Moroccans but has advocated for reducing their numbers in the Netherlands by legal means.
He is an outspoken critic of Islam, which he has called a fascist ideology, and has even called for Mohammed cartoon drawing contests and posted to social media saying “Islam is dangerous.” He embraces the media’s characterization of him as an “anti-Islam politician.”
Today during the lunch break of my appeal-witch hunt-trial my anti-Islam clip will be broadcasted on national tv!

The Dutch constitution overtly outlaws discriminatory speech in any context. Wilders was, however, acquitted of a hate speech conviction in 2011.
Wilders’ appeals hearing will continue until June 6.

Dutch people are usually mean sons of bitches, but Geert is a true Dutch. He's got so many people behind him that this will be a headache for the cabal to indict him.
A National Hero.

I used to listen to alot of what he said, and watched his Fitna film too.
But I came to the conclusion that this guy is just an asshole. And he happens to be a Zionist too.
Alot of these anti-Islam figures have deep Zionist roots, go figure.
Many Zionist Jews have been funding and promoting anti-Islam figures like him to cast the light on the Quran, while completely ignoring the Talmud. Which is very rich, coming from equally retrogressive belief systems.

Socialism will soon die an ugly death. And when it does history says those who last came to that land will be blamed...and there will be blood in the streets. They only question is have the new comers over run the land and be able to over power the original people...
Authentic socialists oppose labor arbitrage, so they prefer merit based immigration.

Gert "Agent of Israel and wearer of yarmulke" Wilders. Fuck this Goyim traitor who serves and aids of 5th columnists. Truly fuck him. I agree with most of his anti-Muslim sentiments, but his associations and servitude to Zionist causes, makes him the worse type of politician.

Geert says 'Islam is Deadly' and in response some Muslims say 'Kill Geert' and prove his point. Should be exhibit A in his appeal.
"The Dutch constitution overtly outlaws discriminatory speech in any context."
That is terrifying. It really is. Now, we have proof that the "liberality" Washington refers to is distinct from this kind of "liberalism". Have these people gone soft in the knees since Theo van Gogh was martyred?
Was their some kind of mass castration event? Too much fluoride in the water? What in the hell happened?
I don't know what happened the Dutch, my fellow countrymen, but in the last decades something has horribly gone wrong. Holland has become a psychiatric patient, in a great part because of the traitor press that poisons the minds of the people and has done so very effectively.
You have your Social Justice Warrior groups, but in Holland this has become mainstream.

Brave man.
Taking in account the context of this accusation, there is almost nothing left for the lefties: maybe politically incorrect or so ^^
Wilders used the term Moroccans because this new Dutchman became quiet obvious a problem for the dutch society, mainly in the West, the so called Randstad, thus in The Hague too.
On the eve of a astonishing local election success in The Hague,
he asked three rhetorical questions, not the only one about Moroccans!
Question one: Do want more or less European Union?
Crowd: Less less less
Question two: Do want - maybe for sure even more important - more or less PvdA (Social Democrats, who ruined the country...)?
Crowd: Less less less
(And than the third question, the one isolated from the others!)
Wilders: Ok, i may it actually do not say because there is declaration against you and maybe there are even d66 officers (progressiv Liberals...) who will accuse me, but the freedom of expression is a big god and we did not say anything, what is not allowed. We have not said anything that is not right.
So i ask you, do you want to this city and in the Netherlands more or less Moroccans?
Crowd: Less less less
Wilders final conclusion: We will work it out!
