The speech should be allowed. :yes:
Trying to draw a "bright line" on what can and cannot be said simply because it is either "offensive," or perceived as a inciting ("Hate Speech") defeats the whole purpose behind the right to free expression.
IMO, successfully branding what can and cannot be expressed non-violently will only lead to more and more censorship until free speech is no more than a slogan with no actual liberty for anyone at all.
WOW, some people are really thick!!
Calling for the deaths of people because of their religion or race is not "non-violent". It is a poison we can do without. Next you will be saying yelling fire in crowded theater is "free speech".
An open forum to talk about anything is the requirement that should never be traded for anything.
Nobody controls my mouth but me.
This is a Human Rights Issue.
Mine will not be taken.
Your speech is controlled in this forum, let alone anywhere else. Try saying what you really think/know in the Middle East sub-forum. There is limited free speech here and yet you tolerate the rules.
Nazi doctrine calls for the extermination of Jews and other people deemed "lesser" by White Supremacists. IMO, such speech should not be legal in the US. Period.
I agree that Nazi doctrine and its forms of brainwashing should never be legal in the United States as it is not protected speech. But who are these "white supremacists"? Liberals call anyone who disagrees with liberal doctrines or Islamic doctrines "white supremacists" and "Nazis." Yet its the liberal narrative that has been denying Israel their right to live securely from Hitler's close allies, the Palestinians! A quick google of Hitler and the Mufti says it all. The Palestinians have remained indoctrinated in Nazi ways since then---not to mention that Hitler's playbook against the Jews was largely borrowed from Muhammad.
If someone is concerned about Nazi doctrine then they first need to learn the Nazi ideology before following after the fallacious rhetoric of liberal nonsense. Socialism is socialism whether its communism or Naziism or the Fabian Socialism of Europe. Its all the same and all leads to terrible things like war and genocide. The Jews are targeted by every progressive leader in Europe and now even Canada. The progressive movement is akin to Nazi fascism.
Nonsense. Progressivism is diametrically opposed to fascism.
:lol::lol: Yeah, Antifa opposes fascism :shock: All this silencing the opposition that progressives do is fascism. And believe me, I have been in the crosshairs of progressive fascism for quite some time now. Back in 2015 I became somewhat of a celebrity among British progressives, who, with the army of 100,000 strong, decided to attack this America for confronting them about their support for Islamo-fascists in Britain. They spent three months trying very hard to silence me and their attempts to do so were almost successful. But in the process of attacking me they forgot about their political foes in Britain and ended up with Brexit :lol:
Now look what British progressives have done to Britain. They have destroyed its cultural value and much of Britain is becoming an Islamic slum. The list of ills is long and the victims of Islamic rape gangs are completely ignored. And I suppose you approve of Tommy Robinson's arrest which will lead to him being murdered in prison. Paul Golding and Jayda Fransen locked up just for speaking about against Islam. But when it comes to patriots progressives don't care and they silence them and kill them just like they are going to do to Paul, Jayda and Tommy. I've seen the fascism first hand that progressives do and nothing they represent is protected by our Constitution. All I've seen coming from progressives is idiocy, insanity normalized, and the darkest of evil I have ever encountered before.
They may SAY whatever they like. If they take one step to act on it I want them in prison

Dunno, boyz-'n-girlz.
Saying things is believing them, and the intent is often to degrade someone else's beliefs or even person.
There is a fine line between "belief" and "caustic derision". And only a court of law can tell the difference depending upon the circumstance and usage.
Clearly, the expression of a belief needs protection of the law. But, does derision?
Methinks not - not even when employed in humour to sweeten the bitter-pill ...
This thread is very old.
And you are very wrong.
It's not extinguishing liberty to quell hate speech, that's an exaggeration. It works quite well in Canada, but that's because as a culture we have decided that hate speech is wrong enough that we will collectively not allow it. Not everyone agrees but most do. All other speech is protected and the government has not used hate speech laws to expand unjustly into silencing other kinds of speech.
Nobody in this country wants to see Nazis or the KKK march. We have decided as a nation that it's not OK. It's the only exception to free speech on the books and it works quite well. So your judgments are kind of irrelevant, based on available evidence.
