Free speech vs. hate speech. Lets say I go to a murderer and mention that someone would be better off dead and whoever killed him would make some fast cash. The murderer kills the person. Am I responsible? I never offered him cash, I only implied it. If someone went to this guys site and read about who should be killed and where they live, then the site owner is liable as an accomplice. As someone said, Bin Ladin didn't fly the plane but he sure suggested it to others to do.
