a printer insulted on social networks for refusing to produce posters for the ultra-right

The Bureau Vallée brand in Valence (Drôme) is the subject of numerous insults on social networks for having refused to print posters for the ultra-right, reports France Bleu Drôme Ardèche. The company refused to print posters signed by Action Française, after the death of Thomas in Crépol, the 16-year-old high school student who died on Sunday November 19, stabbed on the sidelines of a village ball in Drôme.

The Bureau Vallée company, based on the Couleures plateau in Valence, published a press release on Thursday in response to the flood of insults it is receiving on social networks. The same day, she was pinned by an Internet user on the social network X (formerly Twitter). He criticized the Bureau Vallée antenna for refusing to print posters “to support Thomas and his family from Crépol.“

The poster in question is signed by the far-right group Action Française. We see a hand holding a knife, on a red background, and these words: “Attack in Crépol, the immigrant scum guilty again (…) Action Française demands real justice, the closure of borders and a definitive end to mass immigration.“

Bureau Vallée does not rule out also taking legal action

After consulting their legal department, the Bureau Vallée teams decided not to print these posters, “taking into account their content which we considered hateful and our responsibility under the law”.

Contacted by France Bleu Drôme Ardèche, the company says it has suffered a barrage of insults on social networks. The Drôme company also received a few calls. “This goes too far“, estimates Bureau Vallée, which does not rule out also taking legal action. Bureau Vallée concludes with support for the teenager’s family in its press release: “Our thoughts are with the family of young Thomas to whom we provide all our support.“
