Is Brigitte Bardot Bashing Islam?

She may be better remembered as the revolutionary sex kitten of 1960s French cinema, but these days Brigitte Bardot is better known as a standard-bearer of the anti-immigrant wing of France’s political spectrum. Bardot went on trial Tuesday charged with “inciting racial hatred,” and in view of her four previous convictions on similar charges, prosecutors sought exceptionally stiff penalties of $22,000 and a two month suspended sentence.

“I’m a bit tired of trying Madame Bardot,” admitted assistant prosecutor Anne de Fonette, as she urged the court to impose “the most striking and remarkable” punishment in the case. A verdict is expected on June 3.
