Ah, right, I see.
So I'm right.

Oh the ironing - the Nazis feel pretty similary - freedom of speech, except for ... well, people we don't want to speak. Call it hate speech, call them terrorists, or whatever.

no, give a fair platform
But there are laws prohibiting hate speech, and for good reason. I'm personally in favour of giving crackpots like Nick Griffin the chance to embarrass themselves publicly. What I'n not in favour of us groups like the EDL being given the chance to march and cause trouble- whether that's violence or intimidation.

Likewise, UAF and ANL etc deliberately causing violence does nobody any good, but the only people they're victimising are people who espouse racist and extremely discriminatory views and, to a large extent, choose to do so. UAF and ANL don't go out of their way to intimidate mothers and young children. The EDL do.

Who gets to define what constitutes "hate speech"?
It's bullshit legislation. If people are offended by political opinions, they need to grow up.

Q. Why do EDL members travel in groups of eight or more?
A. So that one can read, one can write, and the other six can beat the two intellectuals senseless and stamp on their heads if they show any sign of ideological impurity.

Apart from when they are threatening, shouting and swearing at parents with children who attend the BNP's red white and blue weekend.

I abhor elitism and extremism but I particularly despise hypocrisy.
