Ron:
PC, as far as I know, is a social standard for politeness in public nothing more.
Hate speech in public places is alive and well, . As far as I
know Platt all you need is a permit provided one is granted, otherwise
you'll probably get fined for loitering and disturbing the peace if you don't
move along and take it someplace else if asked.

Platt:
I can think of many exceptions to the need to obtain a permit, like spewing hate
from the pulpit, on the internet, and from the studios of MSNBC.

Ron:
Same goes for School or work, if it bothers others and creates a disturbance
and if you refuse to stop, then yes you should be asked to leave.

Platt:
"Asked to leave" is politically correct language for "fired." Be that as it may, the problem is determining what constitutes "bothering" and "disturbance." I'm bothered
and distrubed every day by liberals. :-)

Ron:
Hate speech is a term for speech intended to offendor intimidate a person or group of people by threatening physical harm (towards people or their property) or inciting others to threaten such harm.

It boils down to intent Platt. If you intend to intimidate or threaten a person or group
or incite others to do so, you should be fined and jailed.

Platt:
I presume that means that the Reverand Jermiah Wright should be in jail.

Ron:
sorry to ruin your day but a lynch mob is not an extention of free speech.

Platt:
Neither is imprisoning two women reporters to 10 years hard labor.

Ron:
Terrorists use hate speech don't they? to terrorize others?
Is it your opinion that this is their right to free speech?

Platt:
Sure. The networks show vidoes from  Bin Laden. Would you censor them?
