I never said Kanye spread hate speech. I said that the opinion that, say, \\\"Jews should all die\\\" is wrong. What you\\\'re saying is their opinion is as valid as anyone else\\\'s, and we can\\\'t say they\\\'re wrong. According to my ethics classes, yes, you can make a value judgment of someone\\\'s opinion.

I\\\'m not even sure what that second paragraph is trying to say. How am I breaking a law? All I\\\'ve done is express my opinion which, according to you, I\\\'m fully entitled to and nobody can ever say I\\\'m wrong.

In the gladiator example, it wasn\\\'t illegal then. In fact, it was state sanctioned. By your own logic, it\\\'s another culture\\\'s morals, so it \\\'\\\'can\\\'t\\\'\\\' be wrong.

The Freedom of Speech isn\\\'t to protect people from \\\"elitism\\\", it is, as I said, to prevent the Government from stomping out people who wanted to speak against it. Study a little history, specifically the Constitution of the United States.

And, I might ask, who are \\\'\\\'you\\\'\\\' to call people idiots just because they have a different opinion from you, hm?

It may not have been illegal, but it was still wrong. People should be punished for doing wrong things, even if the law doesn\\\'t cover it. There\\\'s no law against, say, a child swearing at and disrespecting his father, but said child ought to be punished for it, don\\\'t you think?

Yes, you \\\"explained.\\\" The problem is, your explanation falls flat because you\\\'re \\\"explaining\\\" something that frankly isn\\\'t true.

Anyway, I\\\'m done with this. For real this time. You\\\'re starting to get boring, and I\\\'m running out of ways to say the same thing over and over again without being overtly insulting.

Don\\\'t make the mistake of thinking you\\\'ve \\\"won\\\" the argument, because that hasn\\\'t happened. All you\\\'ve demonstrated, quite clearly, is that you believe it\\\'s okay for someone to ruin an innocent girl\\\'s once-in-a-lifetime achievement because a handful of people think it\\\'s funny.
