Look at the posts on [url=http://www.bungie.net/7_Homophobic-boy-yelling-at-churchgoers-egged-on-by-/en-us/Forum/Post?id=60131903]this thread[/url] and [url=http://www.bungie.net/7_N-Korea-should-blow-up-America/en-us/Forum/Post?id=60132900]this one[/url]
In it we see Off-Topic'ers voicing an opinion that what was said should be punishable. My favorite was for the call of a "Government created database" of when people say things anti-American. (lolreallykiki?)
So, there obviously are strong feelings on the matter. What are your thoughts?
...and feel free to look at everyone's post history to find instances when they said they are for total free speech, and then posted something contrary to that. Allow no hypocrisy in this thread.

Yes, in my opinion Freedom of Speech should include a freedom from the hate speech of others. People have a right to say what they want but if they're forcing other people to listen to it, and by doing so are causing those people distress or alarm, then they should be stopped. Basically if people are being obnoxious -blam!-s in public and upsetting others through the abuse/hate that they are spouting then the police should be able to move them on.
