Marc Bonnant: «With political correctness, we are the executioners of ourselves».»6 reading minutes

It was under the aegis of Eris, goddess of discord, quarrels and rivalry, that the Bossuet of the courts arrived in auditorium B at the University of Fribourg. A muscular lecture that provoked controversy, admiration from some and fury from others.

The room in front of him was packed. A young student prefaced the lawyer's talk by thanking the ELSA (European Law Student Association) in Fribourg for organizing the event, and concluded by suggesting that the first five minutes should be given over to any opponents of Mr. Bonnant's presence. Marc Bonnant automatically refused. He said he would prefer to be interrupted in the middle of his speech, to be booed, to be attacked by surprise. He argued that only vehemence and disorder would truly express the anger of those who opposed him.
