50 million people died because of German free speech. Who, if they could travel back in time, wouldn't put a bullet in young Hitler's head? There is truth or there isn't. If there is we don't need hate speech. If there isn't we don't need hate speech.

Ridiculous, but then this is England, the place is determined to make sure each year is worse than the previous, with more silly laws and lawsuits. The US of course is trying to do the same, but in this case England is winning the war IMO.
