Brigitte Bardot fined for racial abuse

Her comments were in response to how the people of the French Indian Ocean island treat their animals.

Bardot was previously on trial for racial slurs against Muslims in 2008.

Not sure how intensive pig farming where sows literally can’t move in their rigid cages is better than so-called ‘savage’ goat sacrifice. In fact, it’s a lot worse.

Hands off Brigitte.

The woman is a saint.

Well.. if you can't save the face, save the animals.

She actually looks decent in that pic, compared to other recent pics of her.

Who said anything about pigs, R1? Did Bardot? Is she pro-factory farming or something?

Look up her history of ant-gay quotes, R2. I appreciate her care for animals, but her abuse of humans who are demographically different is unacceptable.

She’s said negative things about Jews, Muslims, blacks, mixed couples and gays and lesbians…she is a despicable, bitter old cunt.

She’s an example of how even people we like can be justly accused of old fashioned chauvinism.

And a reminder that lots of people like things the old way. They want to think of being “a French person” with the old way.

Do they have a point? I tend toward “no,” but I’m not totally unsympathetic to them.

Well, I agree that the old way was better.

And if she had bad things to say about gays, maybe it was after she took a gander at the things posted on this website.

A person can make generalizations about any group of people. Stereotypes exist for a reason. God knows we say shit about straight women, straight couples, white people, trans people, etc. etc.

Brigshitte can shove it.

If she said that @ R10, I support her.

People take the alleged homophobic quote out of context. Here's everything she said:

In her 2003 book, Un cri dans le silence (A Scream in the Silence), she contrasted her close gay friends with homosexuals who "jiggle their bottoms, put their little fingers in the air and with their little castrato voices moan about what those ghastly heteros put them through," and said some contemporary homosexuals behave like "fairground freaks". In her own defence, Bardot wrote in a letter to a French gay magazine: "Apart from my husband — who maybe will cross over one day as well — I am entirely surrounded by homos. For years, they have been my support, my friends, my adopted children, my confidants."

Not far from what some gays on this site say at all. I think she's a typical conservative older lady.

She comes from a country that fattens ducks to the point of obesity so their livers can be eaten. She has no right to call any group of people "savages" for animal cruelty.

SHABAM! POW! BLOP! WHIZZ!

An example of “you end up with the face you deserve.”
