Spain’s Supreme Court has upheld prison sentences for seven individuals over Facebook comments criticizing unaccompanied foreign minors in the border enclave of Melilla, marking a chilling escalation in the far-left government’s war on free speech amid skyrocketing migrant-related crime.
The ruling, which imposes terms ranging from eight months to one year and ten months, stems from posts that prosecutors deemed as promoting hostility toward the group of mostly North African migrants.
Charges were initially dropped, but an appeal led to convictions under Spain’s hate crime laws.
HOLY CRAP!!

The Spanish justice system has sentenced seven people to prison for criticizing the entry of illegal migrant minors into Melilla, the Spanish city on the border with Morocco.

This case exemplifies the inverted priorities under Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez’s Socialist-led government, which has faced mounting criticism for prioritizing mass migration over native safety and free expression.
Just months ago, Alex Soros heaped praise on Sánchez for granting amnesty to up to 500,000 illegal migrants via royal decree, bypassing parliament entirely. Soros called it “real leadership,” urging more nations to follow suit in flooding their borders.
Meanwhile, the regime has threatened to “limit and likely ban” X entirely, joining the EU’s broader crackdown on platforms that allow unfiltered discourse. Sánchez’s administration cited protecting minors, but the selective targeting of X—while ignoring platforms like Snapchat linked to child grooming—reveals the true aim: silencing opposition to open-borders policies.
The hypocrisy is stark when contrasted with surging crime statistics. A new study shows foreigners commit five times more rapes and four times more murders per capita than Spaniards, with penetrative rape cases exploding 143% in five years to over 5,200 in 2024.
As we detailed, that’s an average of 14 rapes per day, nearly tripling from six years prior.
In one egregious example, a 26-year-old Senegalese migrant who raped a 14-year-old girl he groomed on Instagram avoided prison altogether.
He received a two-year suspended sentence, 60 days of community service, and a €7,500 fine—far lighter than the prison terms handed to these Facebook commenters for mere words.
In Spain, if you criticize an actual rapist immigrant online, you get a longer prison sentence than the rapist.

Many such cases: Foreigners are 440% more likely to commit violent robberies and 610% more likely to illegally occupy properties, yet the government shields predators while jailing natives for voicing frustration.
Public backlash is overwhelming. A poll revealed 70% of Spaniards, including a majority of Socialist voters, demand mass deportations of illegal immigrants.
Yet Sánchez’s policies continue to incentivize entries from North Africa and Latin America, straining resources and fueling demands for accountability.
This ruling in Melilla, a hotspot for migrant arrivals, underscores the globalist agenda: reshape demographics through unchecked migration, then crush dissent with censorship and prosecutions.
As European regimes from Madrid to Brussels tighten their grip on speech, platforms like X remain vital for exposing these tyrannical tactics. The pushback must grow—natives deserve protection, not persecution.
