Freedom of speech is one thing, but hiding behind free speech to spew hate puts her in some unsavoury company. And that's fine by me - the more extreme and radical her views, the less credibility she has.
Muslim is not a race. It is a religion. Considering the insults on this board towards Christianity there are a whole whack of racists posing as Atheists.

Freedom of speech is just that. Freedom to say what you like whether someone else likes it or not. To suppress that right and we all lose. As for her Muslim comments....definitely ignorant and mean. Not racist.
