In all fairness, the title is misleading, if not disingenuous.
- An announce has been made by a president who's not so likely to be reelected next month. If he's kicked, his law proposals are moot.
- This president has a compulsive habit of making dramatic/populist announces right after impressive crimes made the news; he made this one a couple of hours after a terrorist has been killed in a botched arrest.
- Most of these announces are never followed through; when they are, the _Conseil Constitutionnel_ often cancels or neuters them for unconstitutionality; disproportion between the intended effect and the restrictions on freedom of speech is a legitimate cause of unconstitutionality (cf. e.g. the recently cancelled law about the Armenian genocide);
- The French parliament is in vacancy until it will be reelected, about one month after the President, so no big law can be voted right now.
It would be awful indeed if this law was enabled, but it's quite unlikely to pass.
