Or, maybe the really extreme extrimist hate speech ~ or even possibly ~ speech so hateful it'll curl your earlobes.
It's still speech, and this is not some third-world hellhole or a failed state where they kill people for violation of speech codes.
They should inflict capital punishment on people who actually attempt to restrict free speech.

help stop hate speech and violence directed at immigrants and communities of color. "Hate speech" and violence directed at Natives and people of non-color, however, may proceed unimpeded.

It appears that the genuine scum in our country has discovered that they can marginalize those with any objection to them by simply using PC buzzwords.

The Thought Police are coming soon! This went far beyond "thought". The jerk was acting as a self-appointed "I Vant to See Your Papers" Police.
The bottom line is that these men were U.S. citizens and no self-apponited vigilante with a "Rhode Islanders for Whatever Law Enforcement" membership card has a right to demand that you present I.D. to him.
Are you going to allow some bozo to make a "citizen's arrest" on you because you refuse to show him your Social Security card when he demands that you do so?
I don't think so.
************
"Richardson then asked the men for their Social Security cards. When they declined to do so, Richardson displayed his membership card for Rhode Islanders for Immigration Law Enforcement (RIILE), a group that advocates curbs against illegal immigration. Genao said Richardson lifted a phone receiver and told the men he could call immigration authorities at any time and make a citizens arrest.
