I'm a member of this forum dedicated mainly to healthy living; excercising, diet, etc. There are things like open chat, image forum, etc.

Someone recently adressed a topic to me asking why I wanted a Militia. I went into a few reasons, stated some reasons why this country is fucked, etc. Well, some people didn't like my ideas. The protested to a site moderator to have it removed because they were offended by it.

I fucking hate people. THEY DONT HAVE TO READ IT IF THEY DONT WANT TO!! Why do people who are offended by stuff think they have the right to get stuff removed? They are using their right of free speech just as much, IF NOT MORE than I am.

I fucking hate people.

I'm moving to Saturn.

HA! That will teach you to be health conscious!!! :P

Just kidding, what a load of crap.

Anyway, seeing as how the topic is up... what are peoples views on the censorship of hate speech... America puts up with a lot as 'freedom of speech'... over here, you can't say anything which may be construed as threatening, insulting... etc.

That kind of sucks, because it means you have to mind what you say in jest, and be entirely far too PC at times... but it also means that we don't have idiots like the KKK
promoting their fucked up beliefs.

Not entirely sure which is worse though... Freedom of speech ensures intelligent discussion about serious issues, if we had the chance to intelligently discuss hate, maybe there could be some more resolution?

Yeah, Muffy, I'll take that challenge.

Free speech is free speech. BUT, and this a big, round, juicy but, this should not not include threats against someone's wellbeing. By saying something along the lines of, "I'm going to kill, but before I do, I will rip your eyes out, stick my wang in, and fuck away," you're not really thinking the way the Freedom Of Speech right was written for.

I believe in tasteful free speech. Which is probably why I hate MTV, most TV in general. http://www.thehypertribe.net/ubb/smile.gif

First
I'm going way out here on this one.
How is "I want a militia" Hate Speech
(I know that's not what you said, Muffy)
You want to be free to speak you have to let others speak.
So when you feel threatened your recourse is to run or fight. But you can't abridge. Lest you lose your ability to run or fight.

Next
I agree with p-man, we need a militia.
Why?
Because "we" are a UNION of states.
Not subjects of a government.
We chose to live together in peace.
We chose to mediate differences when they occur so as to maintain our freedom to live and worship as we see fit as groups and individuals.
Anything else leads to what we have now.

One group of people saying what is and is not nit-pickingly acceptable.

Telling you you can't have or do something cause they say so and forcing you to accept paying for someone else doing or having things you do not approve of.

Don't shake the devil's hand and say you're only kidding.

For those of you who are interested, this is the test for getting something banned in NZ (copied straight from my notes, so don't worry about the case law)


Hate Speech s 61 HRA
Must show:
• Publish, distribute or broadcast
• Threatening abusive or insulting (Archer - as judged by the reasonable person not by the reasonable person in the target group)
– Here insulting because of racial stereotypes
– Also threatening re a repeat of nuclear bombing
3 • Likely to excite hostility against or bring into contempt or ridicule on the ground of race
– Sensitive people feel sympathy and revulsion, but others are “ susceptible to material of this kind” Compare with King Ansell (worst statements on a content basis may be spared prosecution using this effects standard)– Here met, sufficient evidence
4 Other cases
• Skelton v Sunday-Star Times (1996) 3 HRNZ 655 (newspaper printed reader’s letter to editor, but did not capitalize pakeha, even though did other ethnic groups) Held: don’t look to the very sensitive in deciding whether something is insulting.
5 • B v Commissioner of Inland Revenue unreported CRT No. 22/98 (s 63) -- telephone call, plaintiff made a (not disclosed)response to hearing defendant’s name, and allegedly the defendant then called the plaintiff a racist, and the plaintiff complained that he had been subjected to racial harassment by being called a racist) Held: not derogated on grounds of race, and also not significant, and also no detrimental effect.

As you can see, there are some pretty rediculous cases which have been looked at to establish precedents, but people like to complain a lot in NZ http://www.thehypertribe.net/ubb/frown.gif
