Brigitte Bardot, the famous eighty-six-year-old French actress does once again to talk about yourself. In this case, the icon of the French cinema, famous for its animal rights faith that since the seventies sees it as the protagonist of campaigns for the protection of animals, was ordered to pay a fine of over 5.000 € for insulting the head of the French Federation of Hunters, Willy Schraen. Even if the fine is one thousand euros lower than that requested by the prosecution, Bardot will also have to pay 1000 euros for Schraen's legal fees and another 1000 for damages.
There is a penalty of 100 euros for each day of delay compared to the 15 set by the court in the cancellation of the insults published by the former actress on her site. In the editorial published in 2019, Bardot defined hunters as "subhumans of abject cowardice" but also "terrorists of the animal world", indicating Schraen as "Clear example".
Although the animalist was not present at the hearing, in a letter addressed to the court he had admitted that he was the author of the insults that appeared on the page. The lawyer of the injured party declared himself very satisfied with the court decision, and he hoped that this affair could sanction the end of the insults to hunters. Bardot's lawyer, on the other hand, stated that “in an era not too distant, it was possible to dialogue with hunters", While now" there is no more debate, but only confrontation "(TGCOM24).
