This is what happens when they take your guns and liberalism and leftism rule your country.
If that's the world you want to live in, move there, because it's only coming here over a whole lot of our dead bodies.

Supporting Laws Banning Hate Speech Means Supporting Police Raids on People’s Homes
If you hate the way police in the United States abuse, threaten, and sometimes kill citizens during routine law enforcement, and you also oppose hate speech and want the government to ban it, take note of how Germany enforces its hate speech laws: They send police to raid people's homes and arrest them.
This week German police, in a coordinated effort, raided the homes of 36 people accused of violating the country's hate speech laws. From The New York Times:quote:
Most of the raids concerned politically motivated right-wing incitement, according to the Federal Criminal Police Office, whose officers conducted home searches and interrogations. But the raids also targeted two people accused of left-wing extremist content, as well as one person accused of making threats or harassment based on someone's sexual orientation.
"The still high incidence of punishable hate posting shows a need for police action," Holger Münch, president of the Federal Criminal Police Office, said in a statement. "Our free society must not allow a climate of fear, threat, criminal violence and violence either on the street or on the internet."
Nothing helps prevent a "climate of fear" like police officers busting into dozens of people's homes because they said things the government has outlawed, am I right, folks?
Americans who want to create an exception that "hate speech" not be protected by the First Amendment often point to Europe and insist countries with such speech bans are no less free for it.
On the theory alone, they're wrong. Prohibiting offensive messages is an imposition on freedom, regardless of whether one favors the laws. You are inherently less free when you face criminal penalties for saying certain things.
If that's the world you want to live in, move there, because it's only coming here over a whole lot of our dead bodies.

People who want "hate speech" punished as a criminal act don't have a clue what they are asking for. Or do they?

ANTIFA is anti-free speech. Anti-First Amendment.
They're on the same side as these true fascists.

What a scary arse quote. The irony here, and the complete obliviousness to it is terrifying.

First they came for the right wingers, and I said nothing, because I was not a right winger...

Sorry y'all aren't erudite enough to appreciate high browed European sensibilities.

Hate speech is free speech.
It's why SCOTUS's ruling this week was so important.
Don't like being called a mean name?
Perhaps begin immigration paperwork to Germany.

Hmmm, someone in Germany many many years ago saw what communism would do...
