French law on Armenian genocide denial


StSilver

Recommended Posts

Hey guys, I'm doing my French oral on the law that France recently tried to pass that would make the denial of the Armenian genocide illegal. This has had repercussions, with both Turkey and Armenia, as they've now pulled it back for a bit.

So I have a few points, but those mainly have to be minor, as most of the presentation is going to be based on what opinions I give her.

My 'problematique' is "Est-ce que les gens devraient avoir le droit de croire ce qu'ils veulent?"

Practically just means "do people have the right to believe anything they want?", even if it borders on hate crimes and/or incredulous ideas (Pro-WBC, Holocaust denials) or is France correct in making this sort of thing illegal.

I'm also slightly anxious about the questions she will ask. I'm predicting something about free speech. Do you have any ideas what she may ask?

Any points you guys could suggest would be helpful too.

Thanks.
