Czech Republic Considers Banning Communist Party…

Obama reportedly horrified.

PRAGUE (AP) — They’re the Czech Republic’s fourth-largest political party, but the hardline Communists could soon be outlawed if the center-right government has its way.

It’s more than two decades since communism collapsed here, but the survivors and ideological heirs to the party that ruled from 1948 until the “Velvet Revolution” of 1989 are under increasing political pressure.

Petr Necas’ government has taken the first step toward a possible ban by asking the Interior Ministry to work on a legal complaint to make it happen. A study commissioned by a Senate committee compiled numerous complaints from lawmakers about their conduct.

The party, which is vehemently opposed to NATO, brands opponents “terrorists” and maintains friendly ties with the ruling Communists in Cuba, China and North Korea.

Unlike most other communist parties in the region that have joined the left-wing mainstream, the Czech party has maintained its hardline stance.

Supporters of the ban say it is a direct successor of the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia, whose members killed more than 240 political prisoners while thousands of other opponents died in prisons.

    Do they call their opponents “right-wing extremist”?

    Great idea!

    We need to do the same thing here.

    The problem in the US though is they constantly change their name: liberal, progressive, democrat etc.

    Sounds to me like the UN will be invading soon to ensure the “rights of communists”.

  7. Fishy Commentator says:

    Or perhaps sanctions or something like that by the UN.

    Hey, maybe Obama could do a military action like what he has been doing in Libya for the “sake of Democracy”?

    That’s what the Dem want to do to us. Ban and imprison us all, which of course, is exactly what they accuse Republicans of desiring.
    What ever happened to actually rooting out and prosecuting subversives? The entire left wing, led by their leaders in government, are enemies of the Republic.

    i bet if the CC holder was black, this story & the liberal talking points would be a lot different.

    also, his quote “the people want us to protect them” is a load of shit. the people have a RIGHT to protect theirself & their family. this jackass doesnt understand what “infringed” means.

    sounds like a standard “union yes” speech. “we unions can do it better than you civilians ever could”

    bullshit. cops are WORTHLESS at preventing crime. they are a god damn “clean up” unit. PERIOD.

    an armed society is a polite society, and the day i give up my gun is the day i give up my life.

    The Czech commies just want the right of collective bargaining.

  15. gastorgrab says:

    There is a simple way to handle this.

    Since the interests of the nation are ‘national’, ban all ‘international’ parties from holding office. That would included hard core communists as well as Jihadists.

    Any secretive coordination of political action with a foreign political entity would work directly against the best interests of the nation, and the interests of the nation’s own voters.

    US of A, had a law banning the communist party. Enacted in 1952 and repealed 1969. We have been in decline since 1970 or is that just a coincidence. No doubt the democrats , took over the heavy lifting for the commies.

    I don’t agree with banning any political party, whether communist, nazi, marijuana, etc, as long as the elections are fair. Let the people decide what governement they want – if they elect an evil party, we’ll know that they represent their people and can deal accordingly.
