Ya gotta love hate speech laws. It's ok to say bad thing about Christians but not about Jews. Why is that? Are we still guilt ridden about WWII? Why should Jews get a free pass when they say something hateful? They shouldn't and maybe because of the anti-Christian bigotry displayed by Jews toward Mel Gibson's film, just maybe, America won't cringe in fear everytime some Jew cries "anti-semite." I can only hope.

Yes. An oddity of our culture is that "victims" are accorded an allocation of "moral capital". But as is often the case when people are working with unearned capital of any sort, it gets frittered away. Once that capital is gone, the supposed victim status no longer collects interest. "Anti-semitism" has now been as thoroughly squandered as "racism" or "homophobia".

The double standard you site is wrong and shouldn't be tolerated.
