So what exactly is hate speech?

[arvad]

Is it when you criticize the actions of a black President?

Is it when you say that the rich are getting preferential treatment while the rest of us get treated like second class citizens?

Maybe its when you say something that is actually true like illegal aliens erode our way of life by lowering wages and increasing all sorts of taxes.

I don't know you tell me!

A violation of the 1st Amendment........................That is exactly what it is.

It's just an excuse to limit free speech. I am queer and mixed race, and I hate homophobia and racism, but I would NEVER vote to limit someone's free speech. As long as you're not physically attacking me or making a legitimate threat to do so, you can say whatever bullsh*t you want.

"Hate speech" is anything which either comes too close to expressing love for your race (if you're white) or does so explicitly.

Loving the white race equals hate, just as loving your wife means you hate all other women. Welcome to a world totally run by anti-whites.

It is defined as anything the left doesn't like.

How about the one Obama gave criticizing the Cambridge, Mass PD for "acting stupidly" in their response to a break in?

How about when Obama's pastor, Rev. Wright said, "No, No, No. Not god bless America, god damn America. America's chickens have come home to roost."

If I say "Roosters suck because they only want to have sex with chickens" or "Roosters are a subhuman species" I'm engaging in hate speech.

2 things i have noticed. 1 - calling gays what they are - perverts is considered a hate crime. 2 -Practising Christianity is considered offensive by liberals and will not be tolerated. Sad world we live in right ? Wrong is considered right and right is considered evil. Sad.

Hate speech is when you try to illicit illegal actions against a group or an individual.

Like if you say "we should hang the president...because he is black, and I encourage everyone to join in attempt to achieve that end".

That is hate speech.

The promotion of violence against others or attempts to influence people to violate other's individual rights.
