French not permitted to enforce silly law in U.S.
 
:?


For several years France has attempted to enforce a ridiculous law prohibiting the sale of historic Nazi memorabilia in the United States, simply because a French person might see or purchase something. Now a United States District Court has ruled that France shall not be permitted to enforce their anti-speech laws which would be unconstitutional in the States anyway. Any other ruling could for instance cause American citizens to be subject to Islamic law, so it's difficult to see how this could be ruled any other way, and equally difficult to see why France thinks it is so special.

Sorry, I'm not sure I got this right.
Does this say that France has tried to make your instiitutions vote a law prohibiting such sales in the US?
What's your source Mouse?

For now they're not prohibited, but could be if the law on laïcity is voted (useless law IMO.), and even then it would only be in public schools, where ALL religious signs would then be forbiden.
