When Speech Becomes a Crime

#3  They need more free speech. Usually, the person up there spewing insanity proves how nuts they really are and most people ignore them.

#2  This "hate speech" issue will soon take care of itself. With the influx of foreign people and languages (legal or otherwise) into the US over the past 10 years, it is difficult to understand what most people are talking about on the metro or the 7-11 even now!

#1  Good post, thanks.

Yep, the whole hate speech thing (puke). More unneccesary laws creating unintended consequences from folks who can't see down the street. Thus filling jails w/harmless morons & slowly eroding personal liberties. Way to go Europe, way to go Canada. Some idiot wants to deny the holocaust & that harms people how? Somebody disapproves of the gay life style and that affects gays how? Even folks in our country are starting to forget that the government was set up for the people, not the other way around. Our founders wanted to limit the powers of the government not the government limiting the liberties of the people. I'm surprised more of our idiot senators haven't jumped on this hate speech band wagon, I mean it's a perfect touchy feely smoke screen instead of dealing w/a hard job, for instance like securing a border.
