“...We need to challenge hate with reason, not censorship.” Oh yeah. That really worked with Lenin, Stalin, Hitler, Franco, Mao, Bin Laden...
Hate speech and hate crime is a stupid idea and law.
Is anyone less dead if the killer did not “hate” them?
Punish evil action not words.

How did America help with any of those problems. Sacrifice OUR lives, the grunts who don’t skip war. Keep in mind that Bin Laden was in Iran, and the US govt knew this. What was the actual thing that the US won, an actual physical positive out of all the warring? Debt, and loss of stature.
When a country goes out looking for monsters to slay, it is lost....maybe forever.
