Spanish Inquisition Court issued Arrest Warrant for an actor for "offending Christian religious sentiments"

Spanish actor faces arrest after ignoring court summons over religious offense claim. A Madrid court has issued an arrest warrant for Spanish actor and activist Willy Toledo after he twice failed to show up in court, where he had been summonsed after a lawyers’ association accused him of offending religious sentiments.
The Spanish Association of Christian Lawyers filed a complaint with the public prosecutor after Toledo published a post on Facebook in 2017, in which he expressed his indignation over a court probe into three women in Seville who, in 2014, paraded a large model of a vagina through the city streets, in an imitation of a religious procession, dubbing it the “coño insumiso,” or “Insubordinate pussy.”
I shit on God and have enough shit left over to shit on the dogma of the saintliness and virginity of the Virgin Mary

On July 5, 2017, Toledo posted a message on Facebook in which he called the judge in charge of that case “possessed by the devil” for not having shelved it. “I shit on God and have enough shit left over to shit on the dogma of the saintliness and virginity of the Virgin Mary. This country is unbearably shameful. I’m disgusted. Go fuck yourselves. Long live the Insubordinate Pussy.”
At the time, he also described the €3,600 civil bond the judge had ordered him to pay as being “repression.” The case against the Seville women had originally been shelved, but was reopened on appeal by the Association of Christian Lawyers.
Toledo – who has appeared in movies such as Pedro Almodóvar’s I’m So Excited and the romantic comedy The Other Side of the Bed – announced via his Facebook account in March of this year that he would ignore any summons to appear in court over the lawyer association complaint against him.
“From here, I would like to inform the hitmen from the Francoist Borbón Spanish regime that I have absolutely no intention of wasting a single second of my life by appearing before your most illustrious lordships,” the message read.
