A PERTH man has been charged under racial vilification laws for allegedly posting anti-Semitic videos on the internet site YouTube.
Maylands man Brendon O'Connell, 38, is seen on film in front of Perth's Bell Tower and at a South Perth supermarket while allegedly making anti-Semitic comments.
Mr O'Connell was charged by the police State Security Investigation Group this afternoon with conduct with intent to incite racial animosity or racist harassment.
The maximum penalty for the offence is 14 years' jail, or fines of up to $24,000.
Opposition Multicultural Interests spokesman John Hyde - who alerted police, Jewish community leaders and the Ethnic Communities Council of WA about the videos - praised WA Police for using the anti-vilification laws to lay the charges.
"Members of the multicultural community can take comfort in the knowledge that this alleged race hate crime will now go before the courts,'' Mr Hyde said.
It is believed to be the second time a person has been charged under the racial vilification laws, which were introduced by the previous Labor government and were designed to outlaw the publication, distribution or display in oral, written or pictorial form of material that was threatening or abusive and intended to cause hatred or contempt or ridicule.
Hey, the truth hurts. Freedom of speech is now criminal if it offends the cult. Expect more of this in the future. But Hollywood producers can mock Jesus and Christianity all they want to, and it is just "entertainment." Rabbis can threaten to kill and throw blood on Mel Gibson for making a movie about Jesus and no one is ever charged with anything. It's time to wake the hell up and to wake up as many people as you can up before it is too late. Devil worshipers will kill you just like they have killed hundreds of millions in the past.

Australians are bereft of their liberties. The Aussie in these videos is an angry ideologue, but his words are honest and clear, except for a few points when he lets his anger get the best of him. Those seeking legal persecution of him are aiding tyrants. That he is not free to speak his mind is evidence of Zionism's death grip on the west.

Yes, they are in the same position as the rest of us. Basically we are all on the same side, where QT falls down, is when his temper gets the best of him. He is young, hopefully this will teach him a lesson.
On another note, it was interesting to read that Duke is FREE, Holappa und Shaun Walker SOON FREE and Toeben "ONLY" three months.

What bothers me is that we have been told for centuries that free inquiry and free expression were the most important values shared by advanced western societies. We are losing ground here. Some may be consumed by hate or other irrational sentiments, but their ideas should be tested in the public square, not in courts.

Sadly, I think we have lost ground some time ago. The 9/11 false flag marked a turning point in history, for both the US and the world. It opened the door for increased control of the population.
