"It's akin to the KKK having two senators elected in the US - they would not deserve to be afforded the same rights to freedom of expression as the rest of the population."

Aye - I don't think LH, has a clue about some of what he's commenting on here (and in other threads on associated matters.)

I'd be inclined to consider affording full "freedom of expression" to such groups, as being equivalent to "freedom of oppression." (ungrammatical but correct) i.e: it it intentionally infringes substantially upon other groups freedoms, thus cannot be allowed in a free society.
