Oh, shut your American hole. We are allowed to say whatever we want over here as long as we don't discriminate or threaten anyone in the process. By your logic, rasism should be allowed if the majority of a society think so.

The freedom of speech does not allow you to threaten or discriminate people over here. If America has other laws then that's beyond tragic.

Threatening I understand, but people should have every right to be a bigot and racist and spout their hateful opinions, just as you have a right to call these people exactly what they are.  The whole point of the first ammendment is to protect speech that is found offensive.  Why is there any point protected speech that isn't offensive?  Idiots like this and their hate mongering must be legally tollerated so that we are all protected from legislation that may infringe on our rights.  If you open the door to say "you can't use speech that discriminates" then that sets a precident for any speech that may be viewed as discriminatory, at the discretion of the government.

Oh yeah? So you wouldn't mind if a bunch of nazis started marching the streets and express their 'opinions'?

Just listen to yourself.

In America, they are allowed to.

In fact, we had a neo-nazi march a few years back in my local town.

Do you know what happened? 3 skinheads showed up. About 100 others showed up with signs that derided the Neo-Nazis. Clearly their freedom of speech did more to invoke words against their behavior than for it.
