Why Islamic Fascists Get A Free Pass On Hate Speech

Topics: Political News and commentaries

Do the speech code enthusiasts and the Islamofascists have you wondering out loud just what in the hell is hate speech?

Wonder no more. Michael Adams has really hit the nail on the head: Hate speech is verbal communication that induces anger due to the listener's inability to offer an intelligent response:

Because this inability to offer an intelligent response is due to one of two reasons, there are really two different types of hate speech: 1) Speech that is too dumb to merit an intelligent response, and 2) Speech for which the listener is too dumb to offer an intelligent response.

Instances of the former are numerous in the society-at-large. For example, when a member of the KKK says "I may not be much, but at least I'm not a nigger" there is really no way to respond intelligently. Nor is there much hope that any response will be understood and appreciated by someone ignorant enough to make such a remark. So the speech can be properly characterized as hate speech.

Instances of the latter are numerous in academia.

Catch the rest at Townhall ....
