I weirdly agree as much as I hate racist wannabe genociders. I think freedom of speech is important even if it is hateful speech that I don't agree with. I don't think it should be up to the legal system to decide what's okay to say and what isn't. That's a slippery slope that can quickly go badly with the wrong people in power.

That being said, I am most definitely going to look the other way if I see a person getting stomped out for being racist. I would personally make them feel unwelcome in anyway I could. I think it should be left up to the people to make it known that intolerant assholes get intolerant treatment, I guess is what I am getting at.
