Topic: RE: Free Speech

Legal matters often have loopholes.  So it can easily look like you're going in circles.  One thing, you think is legal has a loophole, one thing you think is illegal has another loophole..

You get arrested for the thing you thought was legal and the person you thought was committing a crime gets off.  

 

I know it is illegal to say the holocaust never happened in many countries, but I'm pretty sure it's ok to say it in the USA.

Is it illegal in the UK Kate?

Edit:  Never mind, found the answer. "Holocaust denial is explicitly or implicitly illegal in 17 countries: Austria, Belgium, Canada, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Hungary, Israel, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Switzerland, and Romania"

I only recall one person ever making threats on R&R.  She's a friend of yours and made it to the group several years ago.

You talk in talk in circles.  Limitations on hate speech but KKK can support their "organization" which is founded on hate?  Give me a fuck7ng break.  But then SE Texas is the home of Vidor, the Klan capital.  Another reason to dislike that part of the state.  Bunch of ass backward rednecks who need to grip on the real world.

MrsLitch,

I was hoping that people would watch some interesting videos is all.  Also, just because as it may not happen with everyone, does not mean it doesn't happen with anyone.  

You do not, do you think it's something that should be happening?  Did you watch any of the video's? What was your opinion on them?

Exactly what is your point by repeatedly making this statement that OH keeps a record of your postings?  Every website you are on keeps a record of your postings.  Facebook, Obesityhelp, Photobucket, Goodreads, etc.  

 

Come keep it real in R&R 3.0 Want an invite? PM me here.

If it was no holds barred on a forum such as as this one, Obesity Help would not retain records of all postings, which is done in the event that they are subpoenaed and the postings used as evidence.  Someone may feel the right to say something, someone else has the right to take them to court, it's the American way.  And then there are the threats, those are not treated as a right to speech either.
