Hate Speech -- The Opening Wedge To Destroy Free Speech
Opinions are not crimes. They are thoughts. Once government attempts to turn opinions into crimes, it opens the door for any thought that they don\u2019t like to become a crime. The best way to counter distasteful opinions is with free speech, so that the truth can shine a light on them. Opinions can change. Opinions are always changing. But allow the idea of \u201chate speech\u201d and government can make it a crime anytime you open your mouth in opposition to them.
