If you think for a minute that there has been no trace of genocide or racial cleansing since 1945 may I suggest several informative TV programs commonly known as 'The News'? Mugabe, Amin, Pol Pot, Milosovich, Hussein are just a few obvious ones that spring to mind whose regemes are responsible for several million deaths. How we've moved on. I personally dont like what this guy is saying, but I love the fact that he can say it. You make a good point. In my opinion I don't like what he is saying and I don't think he should say it at all and the government are right to try to silence him. | ||

[plays devils advocate] Where do you stand on freedom of speech? And if you think its a fundamental freedom (as I do), how far does someone have to go for us to be able to stop them having this freedom? And im not loading that one way or the other, im genuinely interested. | ||

So in that repect I agree with their motives. But my question was, when does free speech become 'inciting racial hatred'? and I dont mean from a legal perspective. Do the BNP not 'incite' racial hatred with some of their promotional material? Should we deport them too? I raelly struggle with this. I have a lot of ideas about what I call 'basic freedoms', freedom of speech being one of them. I think he should be allowed to say what the hell he wants to say, it allows the rest of the world to look at this person as a lunatic. Does anyone raelly think that terrorism will be averted if we deport him? | ||

I don't like what you are saying and don't think you should say it at all. However, as a hard-line liberal I will, of course, defend your right to say it, while asserting that you could not be wronger if you tried and had expert help. Quite apart from the incredibly important principle, attempts to silence people who talk against the state is a really good way to make them look right. | ||

I think a middle balance is needed. IMO this country is too soft, but that's a different discussion. It's ok if you don't agree with what I say it's just one guy's opinion. | ||

I could have worded it a bit better. No I am certainly not racist. This is not a race arguement. Nono the blonde is a friend. I don't know what lemon fresh love is but it sounds good and I love lemons I am going to Austria for the WPC Europeans soon actually. | ||

I am sorry but I think if a terrorist somebody like him who wants to kill people and doesn't care about their human rights...why should HE have any!? I don't get it. If this continues I predict a revolution in this country. I am off to Austria with my Austrian passport permanently I think lol. I like you Stevie.
