Little Hawk:

I didn't say there was anything to fear. I said the Canadian government sent her a letter stressing the different interpretation of free speech in Canada from that in the US, and remarking that even in the US there are certain exercises of free speech that will run you afoul of the law, including announcing you intend to kill a sitting president, for example. The thing is, I reckon, that hate-speech is an example of something that is mechanically speech but is not communication, but reaction made loud. I am not afraid of the skinny horsefaced broad, but it is a shame to see how she runs up a mob of jingoists and Bilboites. It is clear she does not believe that all men are created equal.
