It seems that France is applying some double standards where freedom of speech is concerned.
Quote:
Charlie Hebdo's "heroes" had defended freedom of speech and this was an attack on the entire republic, he said.
But since the start of the week, 54 people have been detained and several jailed for a variety of remarks, shouted out in the street or posted on social media, and France's judiciary has been lampooned for what appear to be double standards.
