Enlighten me as to how 'racism' (a subjective term which is widely overused) is similar to 'child porn'. What a ridiculous comment. For one, the issue of speech is that 'racism' (again, who decides what is racist) should not be subjected to legal rammifications. What is the world coming to when a person can not even profess his anger at mass-immigration?
People are trigger happy when it comes to limiting speech that they don't like. Comparing 'racism' to child porn is ridiculous, and is similar to comparing communism (which is legal throughout Europe and Australia) to raping donkeys. Remember, freedom of speech is meant to exist to protect those UNpopular thoughts, not simply those popular ones. 60 years ago similar arguements where used to suppress other lines of thought.
