I just don't think its as quite cut and dry as is portrayed.

it's the very idea that someone saying boo is an act of violence, that is the problem here.
when i was living in BC one of my roomates came to calgary for a 'anti-racism' conference for her college, and i just howled when i read the itinerary and speaking points.
we are being turned into victims by being told what to be outraged by.
the actual hatred that exists in our society is not a lot, so it has to be magnified and prodded, it has to be made more than it is.
racist comments being made into felonies, thus become hurtful by their very recognition as such.
speak to anyone that has been discriminated against, anyone that has actually suffered REAL hatred and REAL abuse - it is usually quite enlightening.
meanwhile, back at the ranch, another neo-nazi rally busted as being run by an FBI informant:

A paid FBI informant was the man behind a neo-Nazi march through the streets of Parramore that stirred up anxiety in Orlando's black community and fears of racial unrest that triggered a major police mobilization.
That revelation came Wednesday in an unrelated federal court hearing and has prompted outrage from black leaders, some of whom demanded an investigation into whether the February 2006 march was, itself, an event staged by law-enforcement agencies.
of course, people are always at the ready to say, as if on cue:
Others applauded the FBI's infiltration of the neo-Nazis.
"It's one of the largest extremist groups in the country, and Gletty was one of the most visible individuals in the National Socialist Movement," said Andy Rosenkranz, state regional director for the Anti-Defamation League. "Generally, the FBI and the JTTF (Joint Terrorism Task Force) in Florida does an excellent job."
just what percentage of rallys, hate literature, websites, etc. are directly run by the FBI or the ADL?
there's been some pretty interesting research on that, let me tell you...
