PARIS (Reuters) - French actress-turned-animal rights activist Brigitte
Bardot (news) was convicted Thursday of inciting racial hatred and
ordered to pay $6,000 -- the fourth such fine for the former sex symbol
since 1997.

The Paris court sentenced Bardot, 69, for remarks in her book "A Scream
in the Silence," an outspoken attack on gays, immigrants and the jobless
that shocked France last year.

In the book, she laments the "Islamization of France" and the
"underground and dangerous infiltration of Islam."

"Mme. Bardot presents Muslims as barbaric and cruel invaders,
responsible for terrorist acts and eager to dominate the French to the
extent of wanting to exterminate them," the court said.

Brigitte Bardot is absolutely right about the Islamic threat.  We should
offer her political asylum.

BTW, Bardot was a hottie long before that term was invented.  I thought
she was even sexier than Marilyn Monroe.
