Sorry for misunderstanding the American constitution.
Why 'troll' in my own thread? Not knowing the whole US constitution,my answer was honest,based upon my logic .
So,I ask you and anybody who reads this,
Is telling that "Jews/Blacks,etc.. have to die/should die", is freedom of speech according to the US constitution ?
Answer yes or no.
If it's no,then tell me when a racist talk is not part of your freedom of speech any longer; where are the limits?
limits can be slim when you talk about what can be tolerated and what can't be.
They claim the same ideology/ideas.. as the nazis ,however they are allowed/tolerated in the USA because of 'freedom of speech';the nazis have committed murders in the name of their ideology,so should it be right to think that this ideology should be illegal? then,if this ideology should be illegal,the groups who have ideologies which involve the death of a certain category of people,should be declared illegal;that's my logic about freedom of speech,belief..
I still think that freedom of speech for evil/racist/etc..groups or organizations is a flaw of the US constitution.
By the way,let's go back to the original topic.

These people are free to hold any opinions they wish, but inciting a riot or being party to a murder are crimes just as any.
