    Like I've said, I am beginning to support laws against hate speech. Maybe we should outlaw that in the US. It works for them well in places like Canada and Europe.

    Laws like Holocaust denial I just don't understand though. What if a victim of the Holocaust denies it because he doesn't want to face what happened to him? Why is that ever illegal?

    Also, I was reading a while back that hate speech laws (in countries like Europe, etc.) have the truth as a defense. So whatever group you're talking about, whatever you're saying, if it's true, you can't be charged with a crime.

    I actually thought at the time that might make it work.
