it's a very good reason why it should stay that way --- there are and should be laws against certain forms of speech --
it's that simple.
There are far too many nutters among us who can string words together and fan the flames of violence and intolerance in people who are easily susceptible to such talk --
need a reference --- any form of social media - including this one.
Many people ignorant of the laws continue to refer to the Second Amendment of the USA as being the right to free speech --
they are ignorant of the fact that this ONLY refers to press being protected from Government - it goes no further than that.
There is no such thing as the right to free speech - nor, should there be. Too many hate filled idiots promoting intolerance and violence.

I don’t agree with hate speech, never have.
However if anyone thinks we are capable of a sensible debate to determine what constitutes hate speech think again.
Simply watch channel sevens nazi style attack on Pauline Hanson from David Koch and Darren Hinch this morning.
If that’s the standard of debate msm bring into our homes then we’re in trouble.
