Have to say that I'm of the American First Amendment school of free speech. Let people say whatever they want, as ong as they are willing to accept the consequences of such actions.
It took me awhile to come around to this, but it makes a certain amount of sense. Only by exposing every philosophy to the public discourse can we root out what is truth. A certain percentage of people are always going to believe messed up things. Do you want them to gather in secret and spread their ideas like a cancer without any oversight? Or do you want them to own up their beliefs and have them tested?
