| | Why Radical Muslims Hate You - Probe Ministries |
 | | Not all "radical" Muslims are violent or hateful. |  | | Still other reasons some radical Muslims hate you involve religion. |  | | If you are a Westerner, an American, a non-Muslim, or a Muslim of a different stripe than they, then some radical Muslims hate you. |

| | Christian 'Hate Groups' Accused of 'Anti-Gay Crusade' -- 06/30/2005 |
 | | In response, the spokesman for one pro-family group said it's the SPLC that is guilty of "engaging in hate speech." Another conservative said his group wears the criticism from the SPLC as a "badge of honor." |  | | Potok in his editorial also charged that leaders of the religious right were guilty of using "bully-boy tactics" such as "cruel name-calling." The contention of many Christians, that they hate the sin but love the sinner, is "a hard one to swallow," according to Potok. |  | | According to its website, the Southern Poverty Law Center "was founded in 1971 as a small civil rights law firm." Today, the Montgomery, Ala.-based organization "is internationally known for its tolerance education programs, its legal victories against white supremacists and its tracking of hate groups." |

He said he welcomed the delegates and spoke about his family and conservative values. |  | | Wallace, who was Alabama state treasurer between 1986 and 1994 and was elected to the Public Service Commission in 1998, gave speeches to the CCC once in 1998 and twice during 1999. |  | | More than 100 delegates heard his speech, which went without any immediate coverage in the Alabama print and broadcast media. |

Bush has repeatedly stressed the importance of understanding that terrorism is caused by Islamic extremists who "hate our freedoms." Following the World Trade Center tragedy, Bush pointed out to Congress that "Their leaders are self-appointed. |  | | Thousands of American citizens have not died because terrorists hate "freedom." More than anything, the conflict between fundamental Islamism and Old Testament religious capitalism is centered around "freedom," in the same sense that Civil War era plantation owners championed "freedom" so as to be free to own slaves. |

 | | After the Democratic debate on Sept. 9, Gillespie was again quoted accusing the Democrats of "political hate speech" and asserted that "These kinds of harsh, bitter personal attacks are unprecedented in the history of presidential politics," an absurd claim given the vitriol of American political history, particularly in the 19th century. |  | | In addition, the phrase reverses the term "hate speech" by directing it back at liberals (another classic jargon tactic), who are associated with the term due to speech codes proscribing "hate speech" at certain colleges and universities. |  | | In a Washington Times op-ed published on October 9, Gillespie was quoted trying to frame "political hate speech" as an attack on the institution of the presidency itself: "The attacks have moved beyond political rhetoric and into the realm of political hate speech. |

She takes Derrida's theory of iterability and shows how repetition of discourse in new contexts can be a means of resistance. |  | | Excitable Speech is powerful for its account of how subjects are formed through the address of hate speech and how, through this very address, the conditions for the subject's agency are enabled. |  | | "Butler's exploration of racist, sexist, and homophobic language is hence of acute significance to anyone concerned with the sociopolitical and theoretical implications of hate speech." --This text refers to the Hardcover edition. |

| | Hate speech - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Hate speech restrictions would be attempts to control not only the relevant speech actions, but the thoughts of individuals, and would thus be an attempt to create a kind of thoughtcrime. |  | | Others argue that hate speech limits the free development of political discourse and ought to be regulated, but by voluntaristic communities and not by the state. |  | | Proponents of limitations on hate speech argue that repeated instances of hate speech do more than express ideas or expresses dissent; rather, hate speech often promotes and results in fear, intimidation and harassment of individuals, and may result in murder and even genocide of those it is targeted against. |

 | | Hate speech is particularly low value speech, not because it is a manifestation of reprehensible ideas, which it clearly is, but because it serves no purpose other than to cause injury. |  | | Hate speech, however, is different in a very fundamental way than the insulting, critical speech that warrants first amendment protection even when it is directed at a specific individual. |  | | Hate speech based on race or ethnicity or gender is typically more hurtful and painful to the listener than are other types of generic insults. |

 | | Hate speech and hate crimes are on the same spectrum of violence, beginning with subtle homophobic language and ending in murder. |  | | The ACLU even states that "only a handful of several thousand" of their cases involve "offensive speech." The only time courts acknowledge or prosecute hate speech is when someone yells "faggot" or "dyke" at a queer individual while murdering or raping him or her. |  | | First, because Martorano is so convinced that he is not homophobic, here's the definition of hate speech created by scholars who spent years researching the subject: 1) Hate speech has a message of social group inferiority, 2) is directed against members of a historically oppressed group, 3) is persecutory and degrading (Nielson, L.). |

| | FIRE - Speech Codes Issues |
 | | A speech code at the University of Michigan, for example, once contained an exemption for protected speech, stating that the general counsel’s office would rule on any claims by a student that the speech for which he or she was being punished was constitutionally protected. |  | | One type of speech restriction that merits special attention is what is known as the “heckler’s veto.” A heckler’s veto occurs when a speech is terminated or prevented due to the actual or anticipated hostile or violent reactions of others. |  | | If a university were to restrict speech on the basis of how others reacted to it, then those who disagreed with a speaker would have an incentive to react violently (or at least to threaten to do so). |

| | Free Speech: Campus Hate Speech Codes |
 | | Whether hate speech codes are morally just responses to campus intolerance depends on how society interprets the harms of discriminatory harassment, the benefits and costs of restricting free speech, and the just balance between individual rights and group rights. |  | | The hate speech that codes target, in contrast, is not presented rationally or used to provoke debate. |  | | Therefore, if the primary purpose of an academic institution is to educate students, and hate speech obstructs the educational process by reducing students' abilities to learn, then it is permissible to extend protection from hate speech to students on college or university campuses. |

 | | However, the role played by homophobic hate speech in perpetuating inequality for queers is limited when compared to other social/discursive practices: thus hate speech laws are the easiest but also, taken on their own, a largely ineffective way of responding to homophobia. |  | | Hate speech seems more evidently linked to discrimination than pornography, and speech act theory suggests that it enacts a specific kind of subordination. |  | | The Law, in limiting pornography on the basis of the radical feminist rationale that assimilates it to hate speech, ends up making strong and arbitrary claims to truth, that are premised on doubtful assumptions, silence alternative knowledges, subjugate outsiders experiences, and contribute to the creation of oppressive social identities. |

 | | Of course any legislation on hate speech would be very difficult to frame, and the balance between free speech and the right of people to live without fear of hatred and violence is a delicate one. |  | | A recent extreme example of hate speech has not so far received much publicity in this country, although it is being increasingly reported in the overseas press and on the internet (there is a relevant article from The Australian at: http://www.theaustralian.news.com.au/common/story_page/0,5744,10628670%255E31502,00.html). |  | | There has been a number of attempts to argue that "hate speech" does not lead to violence at all, and that anyone can say what they like about a group of people without it having any effect on others' actions against that group. |

 | | Although I personally do not prefer hate speech, Terminiello held free speech may "best serve its high purpose when it induces a condition of unrest, creates dissatisfaction with conditions as they are, or even stirs people to anger." If the speech is likely to cause substantive harm, then it is unprotected. |  | | For example, the book stated one justification for restrictions on racist speech is because racist hate speech "undermines the constitutional value of equality." Undermining equality perpetuates feelings of inferiority and stereotypes. |  | | Hate speech codes seem very broad and encompassing, without relation to the audience or specific content. |

 | | Although not a “hate speech” case per se, the case sheds some light on how courts may handle such a case in the future. |  | | The Mitchell court thus seemed to suggest that “hate speech” remains a conundrum: The only way it can be prohibited is if the statute that does so is “content-neutral” — yet the point of proscribing hate speech in the first place is to proscribe the content of the speech. |  | | The Court reasoned that “the First Amendment does not permit [a government] to impose special prohibitions on those speakers who express views on disfavored subjects.” The Court considered that it was overbroad in that any such speech used by “proponents of all views” whatever its context would be prohibited. |
